It's still a little early in 2010 to be handing out our "Human of the Year" award, but a Halo.Bungie.org forum poster by the username of Seraph XXVII is already high atop our list of candidates. In a recent post on the fan site, Seraph displayed his massive Halo memorabilia collection, seen above, and revealed that he'll be auctioning the whole lot off within the next few days.
Half of the proceeds from the auction are going to Child's Play, and the other half will go towards paying the medical expenses of a fellow Halo.Bungie.org forumite, whose fiancee learned she had a tennis ball-sized brain tumor last week. Needless to say, both of these are great causes -- if you've got room in your home for six bajillion miniature Spartans, why not show your support once the auction goes live?

The larger scale of the Halo 2 figures might clash with my already considerable collection of Mcfarlane Halo 3s, but ill be damned if that's gonna stop me from buying some. I mean shit, Tennis ball sized?!

I'm eying that scarab myself, but I bet that will go for the most. That thing would be UNFAIR to use against my buddys.

Here's hoping people open their wallets. I'm not a collector of this kind of stuff, but I'll bid since it's for a worthy cause!

Wow, Halo fans do have a heart.
Did this Halo collector just decide to help out a fellow forum member out of the blue or do they know each other?
Either way, it's great to see people actually help other people.

That's a really nice thing to do. I wish I had the cash floating about to buy the entire collection. I hope you get a lot of money for it all to help your causes. Good luck!

I am surprised I don't see the Red Vs Blue machinima DVDs in that collection. They might be there however.

Not trying to sound like a downer, but is there really Halo stuff that's actually rare and worth money? But yea such a great cause. But yea tumors are terrible. Why isn't there a way to just donate money to sick people? The world would probably be a better place if there were easier ways to help people that need it...sorry, going to end tangent now
But, I would sure pay good money to taste Halo 3 Mountain Dew Gamer Fuel again
