*[[Bungie]] had originally intended for only the most hardcore and devoted fans to have first access to the Hayabusa helmet. This was to be accomplished by making players search for quite some time throughout the levels of Campaign mode for all the hidden skulls. In particular, the [[Halo 3: IWHBYD (I Would Have Been Your Daddy) Skull|IWHBYD skull]] was supposed to be next to impossible to find. However the skull was discovered fairly quickly, and its location and how to retrieve it were soon posted on the internet, enabling scores of casual fans to unlock the Hayabusa helmet with minimal effort, much to the chagrin of Bungie's original design. This is speculated to be the reason as to the limited rarity of the [[Recon]] armor. Bungie use this instead of Hayabusa as a reward to devoted fans / fan creations. | *[[Bungie]] had originally intended for only the most hardcore and devoted fans to have first access to the Hayabusa helmet.

*Often, people who wear this armor are subject to backlash. They are called "noobs" or other vulgar words.
