Halo Grifball Spartan
Grifball Spartan Will Be Sold Exclusively by Toys ‘R’ Us
McFarlane Toys will be offering a Toys “R” Us Grifball Spartan to be sold during San Diego Comic-Con 2009. This Spartan features the highly coveted Recon armor, plus a Bomb, Gravity Hammer and Sword Hilt.
The McFarlane Toys Grifball Spartan marks the first time an action figure has been created based on the Grifball game. Created by Rooster Teeth, Grifball is an intense, fast-paced sport video game that’s played on an open court between two teams of four players. The object is to take the ball in the middle of the court and put it in the other team’s goal. Learn all about it at the official Grifball site.
The Grifball Spartan is limited to 6,000 pieces and will sell for $15.
This exclusive will be available during San Diego Comic-Con — details to come.
