They are notable for producing high-quality collectible figures.[1] Contrary to most other Halo figures, ThreeA's are much more expensive, usually costing around $200. They are all 1/6 scale (Height 13.5 inches/34.3cm). ThreeA first announced its line of Halo products in 2012, with a figure of Carter-A259 that was delayed for many months until its release in 2013. Many other characters have since followed.
