"With Halo Avatars, we wanted to do something as different as possible from our standard 6-inch figures. Those figures are big, game-accurate, heavily articulated, and serious. Our avatar figures are small, stylized, pre-posed, and playful. With a standard action figure, you know exactly what you're getting. With an avatar figure, each one is a surprise. And collecting a full series of our standard figures can be a significant investment, but an avatar figure is something any fan can afford."
— Todd McFarlane

Halo Avatars Series 1 is the first in McFarlane Toys' line of Halo-themed Xbox Avatar figures[1]. In order to represent the customization options avalible for online avatars, the figures feature interchangable heads, torsos, and legs[1]. The line also includes various "prop" items, such as the Warthog. The figures are 2 1/2 inches tall, and are randomly packaged in small plastic cylinders, the tops and bottoms of which can be removed and used as a display base[1]. The tubes themselves can be connected to form multi-level displays. Series 1 debuts in Fall 2012.
