Seen in the [[Electronic Entertainment Expo|E3]] 2007 build and on the box art for ''Halo Wars'', among other promotional screenshots, is the [[Protos-pattern Scarab|Type-47A "Protos" Scarab]] - the Scarab variant notably found in the ''[[Halo 2]]'' campaign levels ''[[Outskirts]]'', ''[[Metropolis]]'' and ''[[The Great Journey]]''. In the final ''Halo Wars'' game, the {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}} design notably used in ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'' and ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' is used.

However, the final game's Scarab would be a take on the {{Pattern|Deutoros|Scarab}} design featured in ''[[Halo 3]]'', ''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'', and ''[[Halo: Reach]]''.


In the E3 2007 demo, the Scarab appears near the end in a short viginette, climbing out of a Forerunner underground shaft. The Scarab proceeds to rampage across the battlefield, destroying several tanks and other units, and must ultimately be destroyed via [[Magnetic Accelerator Cannon|MAC orbital bombardment]].
