Off the top of my head Mattel doesn't really do any collector stuff, and some of these images are not inspiring confidence, especially the 12" scale Warthog. I collect some toy stuff but mostly Japanese so my western company knowledge is kind of meh. At least Megabloks is safe I guess, but I feel like Hasbro would have lead to a lot better products. I don't even know of any real action figure lines Mattel makes, their big two lines are Hot Wheels and Barbie.

McFarlane really slowed down production since Halo 4, and I think this means the end of their stuff. Been a while since I bought any thing really, but I guess I'm done with Halo toys unless something higher end comes around. At best, maybe they retained rights to make statues or collector level stuff, but a $20 6-inch line makes me doubt that.
