H3 McFarlane series 3 and free XBLM downloads

by Dustin Burg on Apr 13th 2008 1:15PM

Spawn.com just uploaded a bunch of media for their upcoming McFarlane Halo 3 series three action figures that are set for release this August. The figures (all viewable in the gallery below) include a new Jackal, Human Flood, War Chieftan Brute and Master Chief which were spotted a few weeks back during a toy expo. Also detailed are the exclusive Spartans that'll hit various retailers in various armor permutations and in various colors. Finally, to celebrate Halo 3's Legendary Map Pack's release, McFarlane will be releasing a free set of Halo 3 McFarlane gamer pictures and a theme to the XBLM tomorrow, April 14th. Download, look at those figures and keep Halo 3 on the brain, only because we're telling you to.

[Thanks, TMD]

Cool! Does anyone know if the gamerpics/theme will be available outside the US?

Make a US account not to hard, look up a pizza hut in New york and us there info, thats what I did for my Japanese account.

Yes, it should be available worldwide.

These gamerpics are a very good deal!

I just want the spawn pic. =P

Should really get some of these figures though. XD

I browsed the spawn.com article and didn't see any mention of this being available to those outside of the US. I really hope it is as the pics are pretty cool and the theme is as well.

Are these a limited time only download?

Yes - these are available the 14th through June 15th, so get them while they're available. :)

Okay so what's the point in paying 100-200 points for Themes and Pics if all the free ones are better anyway?

Pictures do not do those action figures justice!! They are outstanding...

I'm disappointed in the size of the figures. First, the vehichles and figures are not to scale, so that sucks. Second, they are smaller than I'd hoped for the cost, but that's McFarlane toys for you.

I guess this is sorta on-topic. My gold just ran out, how long do silvers have to wait or the free stuff to be available?

1-week

Want!

Damn these look good, much higher quality than anything you have to pay for on XBLM. Sadly, i can almost guarantee these will be US only. US has been getting so much free gamerpics/themes lately, its crazy.

True i do have a silver "US" account but being its silver will have to wait a week before i can download them. So really hope they are available to everyone outside US.

recon?

Gah, where is it!

Where is it indeed?

I live in the Netherlands and I'm a Xbox Live Gold member, but i can't seem to find the damn gamer pictures! I want the spawn-one REALLY bad!
Can anyone help me with this? Under what name are they on the Marketplace?
