The '''Bungie Armor''' (also known as the '''Flaming Head''' or '''Legacy''' in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'') is an [[Armor permutations (Halo 3)|armor permutation]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' only available to [[Bungie|Bungie Studios]] employees (and Bungie members on 7/7/10).{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/news/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12857| | The '''Bungie Armor''' (also known as the '''Flaming Head''' or '''Legacy''' in ''[[Halo: The Master Chief Collection]]'') is an [[Armor permutations (Halo 3)|armor permutation]] in ''[[Halo 3]]'' only available to [[Bungie|Bungie Studios]] employees (and Bungie members on 7/7/10).{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/news/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12857|Site=Bungie.net|Page=Bungie Weekly Update - 10/12/07}} | ||

The Bungie Armor [[Armor permutations (Halo 3)|armor permutation]] is a special unlock in ''Halo 3''. As its name suggests, the Bungie Armor was created as an exclusive unlock for members of the Bungie Studios development team. As such, there is no way to use it in ''Halo 3'' without the use of [[modding]] or being a developer. Only two exceptions to this policy are known to exist, one being [[Nathan Fillion]] (voice actor for [[Reynolds]] in ''Halo 3'' and [[Edward Buck]] in ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and ''[[Halo 5: Guardians]]'') and the other being Pope rex, the winner of the Sarkathlon 4 event. When [[Frank O'Connor]] left the studio to work for [[343 Industries]], Bungie stated in response to questions about O'Connor's flaming head that ''"The flame has been extinguished."''{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=http://downloads.bungie.net/podcasts/Bungie_Podcast_70709.mp3| | The Bungie Armor [[Armor permutations (Halo 3)|armor permutation]] is a special unlock in ''Halo 3''.

Due to this exclusivity, the armor was often used in site banners on [[Bungie.net]] as a perk of joining the Bungie team, with the phrases ''"Get hired, get fire"'' and ''"Game with Flame"''. Notably, the armor was available for use by the ''Halo 3'' community for one day on [[Bungie Day]] [[2010]]. During this event, all players also had the Bungie [[nameplate]] applied, as the two were linked. Due to the armor's exclusivity, it bears some resemblance to the similarly-elusive [[RECON-class Mjolnir|Recon armor]], which until the launch of ''Halo 3: ODST'' was only unlocked via personal selection from Bungie. | Due to this exclusivity, the armor was often used in site banners on [[Bungie.net]] as a perk of joining the Bungie team, with the phrases ''"Get hired, get fire"'' and ''"Game with Flame"''.

The Bungie Armor's legacy extended into ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' thanks to the addition of the new [[armor effects]] category of customisation. At launch, the orange flames were available to anyone who purchased the [[Halo: Reach Legendary Edition|''Halo: Reach'' Legendary Edition]] while Bungie reserved a similar effect - named Eternal - for themselves. Unlike the Legendary effect's orange flames, Eternal's are blue.{{Ref/Site|D=01|M=6|Y=2020|URL=http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=BWU_060410| | The Bungie Armor's legacy extended into ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' thanks to the addition of the new [[armor effects]] category of customisation.
