According to a Bungie update posted by [http://www.bungie.net/Account/Profile.aspx?uid=2285405 lukems], there will be Halo 3 Replicas Guns! Bungie has spoken to folks from Jasman Toys and they will be showcasing the new Halo 3 Laser Tag Replicas. Bungie concentrate mostly on realism and the guns won't be a 1:1 scale, since the [[Master Chief]] is 7 feet tall, and to have a 1:1 scale of the gun he carries would be too large and too heavy for the normal-sized adults. Instead, they lowered the scale by just a little. It is also assumed that these will be used as Laser Tag toys. If you are planning to find the replicas at the 2007 ComiCon, the prototypes will be on display at the Tor booth (#1116).

The target will represent the shields similar to the game. When you are shot the target will show the damage to your shield, if you can get away the shields will recharge back to full power just like Spartans."

They will still have the realistic sound effects from the game. The replicas also feature a reload button when they are depleted of ammunition.

Bungie, however, is still working on Human weapons, because they want the UNSC weapons to be more realistic, but less dangerous-looking so the police won't shoot you. Bungie says, "Our Halo 3 Laser Pursuit replica weapons are going to be available at toy stores and we wanted to keep the detail as realistic as possible. The human weapons look too real and would need to be made in bright orange or green to be sold at retail. Depending on the success of the alien weapons, however, who knows what could happen."

According to Bungie, the plasma rifle will have lights and recoil similar to those in the game. It will also have the real sound effects from the game as well as some of the special features including the “overheating” when shot too many times in a row. The plasma pistol will also have the lights and sounds as well as a recoil vibration when shooting and a “super shot mode” when holding down the trigger that will do more damage.

Jasman Toys is a company that designs and produces toys for children of all ages. Their products range from remote controlled helicopters, electronic dinosaurs and shooting toys. During the production of Halo 3, the company was given a contract to produce replica weapons from Halo 3 in order to further promote the game.[1]

Halo 3 Laser Tag[edit]

“ Our Halo Laser Pursuit differs in the way that it is trying to replicate the game instead of just having your basic laser tag game. The target will have shielding similar to the type in the games. When you are shot you will show and be shown the damage to your shield, if you can get away your shield will recharge to full power just like a Spartans or Elite's. ”

The Halo 3 Laser Tag replicas made its first appearance at the 2007 ComiCon where the Plasma Rifle and Plasma Pistol was put on display at the Tor booth. All replicas will retain some of its unique feature similar to those in the actual game; the Plasma Rifle and Plasma Pistol, when fired continuously, will overheat quickly and their side vents will pop out. They will still have the realistic sound effects from the game. The replicas also feature a reload button when they are depleted of ammunition.
