īorn, who is a swap-member of the Builder caste in the Forerunner hierarch, shows the desire to turn his back on his future as a Builder and instead become a treasure hunter to search for long-lost Forerunner and Precursor artifacts. She assures him that the armor will have no value to the human crew, so Born begins to remove his armor as the florian fetches him sandals made of reeds. It explains that electrical and magnetic fields, other than the ones caused by the planet's dynamics, throw the krakens into a frenzy, which is why the boat is powered by a primitive steam engine.
Born then consults with his armor's ancilla first it is described as a disembodied intelligence, in a role similar to another famous A.I.

Riser approaches Born and instructs him to remove his Forerunner combat skin as it is upsetting the song. They are sailing across a sea filled with kraken-like monsters which must be pacified by singing a lulling song. With them is the young Forerunner Manipular Bornstellar-Makes-Eternal-Lasting, who prefers the name his mother used for him: Born. On board are two members of a human subspecies one is a chamanune called Chakas, and the other is a hamanune (also called a florian) named Riser. The story opens on a Human steam boat on Earth, then called Erde-Tyrene. The Human species was split into about half a dozen subspecies to reduce the chances of it once again allying and becoming strong. As punishment, the surviving Humans were devolved by the Forerunners and exiled back to their planet of origin, a world called " Erde-Tyrene" (known in the present as Earth) in the Sol system. This original empire ended some 10,000 years before the events of the book, when they went to war with the Forerunners and were utterly defeated. It is also revealed in the first chapter that Humanity once had a massive and sprawling prehistoric interstellar empire. It details Forerunner- Human contact with-in the "first dozen pages." I would guess that we’ll get that information in the fall, when this statue is most likely scheduled to be put up for order.The novel explores the beginnings of the Forerunner-Flood war. There are no additional details regarding the release date or price of the new McFarlane Halo statue being given out at Comic-Con right now, so we’re likely going to have to wait until McFarlane Toys decides to share that info with us on their official website before we have any of the specific regarding this upcoming Halo 4 Cover Master Chief statue. We previously saw Todd McFarlane tweet out unpainted photos of this sculpture on his Twitter, so it’s not a “big reveal” or anything here at the show–it sure is nice to get to see this in painted form, however! This statue will certainly be priced at $200-$300+, but considering that 2012’s McFarlane Halo Forward Unto Dawn statue now sells for about $570-$700 on ebay, that’s not a terrible retail price to pay to get the Halo 4 Master Chief statue to begin with. Turns out that that isn’t quite right, as we have the gorgeous Todd McFarlane sculpted Halo 4 statue being shown off in fully painted form for the very first time! The McFarlane Master Chief Halo 4 Statue is being displayed in the Hyatt Xbox Lounge at SDCC 2013 all this week and weekend.
There’s one pretty significant Halo product being displayed at the 2013 San Diego Comic Con this week that has sort of fallen through the cracks this week, and it’s a biggie! Coming from McFarlane Toys in late 2013/early 2014, it’s a high-end statue of the cover artwork from the Halo 4 video game, featuring the Master Chief!īecause McFarlane Toys isn’t exhibiting at San Diego Comic Con 2013 (again), I had thought that McFarlane Toys wasn’t going to have any Halo presence at the show.
