Looks pretty sweet - canonical too!

Anyone else looking to pick it up at launch next month?
edit - Ninja'd me Stu, git!
That's dirty cheap... I'm gonna struggle to say no!
Yeah, good price point for the amount of models.
If you pre-order at salute apparently you get a free bust of a named character as well.
Quote:Jake-Wayland posted in the Salute thread that:
"We will be taking Pre-orders for the new HALO game from Spartan Games with the added bonus that every pre-order will come with a free commander bust plus the chance to win more as part of the commander bust painting competition. We will also be giving away a free commander gift pack (choose from Dystopian Legions, Dystopian Wars, Firestorm Armada or Planetfall) when you spend £50 on Spartan Games products."
Edit quoted wrong bit across, D'oh!
