How about a Shirt. The front would have the Master Chief standing over a dead hunter, with one foot on top of it, the back would have the words "...and on the sixth day, god created man..."

That poster at E3 that has the Halo 2 symbol and says 'Earth will never be the same', but without the November 9. Also some action figures- MC w/ Battle Rifle and w/ 2 SMG's or w/ RL, Warthog w/ RL on back, a Hunter, and any cool new alien and/or thing(s) that we dont know about. Also some t-shirts with that Halo 2 logo, the 2 symbol, in colors of: white shirt w/ blue logo, black shirt w/ blue logo, and blue shirt w/ white logo.

Watches
1) watch with a faux dive-timer styled to look like Halo
2) watch with a pattern in LCD or backlighting which is under the display. Pattern could be of Master Chief, the Seventh Column Logo, Marathon Logo, etc. Example here:
http://www.fossil-store.biz/FS/fossil-429.shtml

Paperweight / Christmas Ornament
A high quality model of the monitor, in heavy metal for desks or chromed plastic for christmas trees. Desk model could have battery-powered LEDs for accent lights, possibly light-sensitive, so the item only lights up when it's dark. Tree model could be set to plug into a standard light string.

Models
Scale models, of the user-assembled-and-painted type, of the vehicles from halo, and possibly of Halo itself.

Levitating Halo
You've seen those levitating globes, right? Those, but Halo instead of a globe.

Or maybe ... like this:

I know, a bit wackier than you were looking for but ... well, I would buy them.

[color=white]Please note: there's more to this reply than me agreeing with SC about his ideas. Read on....[/color]

Black hooded sweatshirt.
The new Halo 2 logo on the front, top center, in ice-blue.
Down both sleeves from top to bottom in white lettering is a Bungie phrase. Coupla examples: Frog Blast the Ventcore. SoonTM. Don't Make Us Kick Your Ass.
Or, have a line of Forerunner symbols down each sleeve instead.
On the back, top-center, in ice-blue, is the symbol on the backs of the Spec-Ops Elites.

A T-shirt, with the words "Satisfy Your Grunty Thirst" in front, and, in back, a small concept art sketch of a Grunt sucking on a food nipple.

A black T-shirt with the words "Betcha can't stick it..." on the front and a sexy Cortana drawing on the back.

A T-shirt with the words "You were just..." on the front. On the back, "OWNED" in big letters. Below that, a Master Chief corpse humping a MC body.

A black T-shirt with, on the front, the words "Fight for Her" in top center. Below that, a scorched Earth, like the one in the first Halo 2 video. In back, top center, "11.9.04."


[color=white]I'd buy any of those products. Twice.[/color]

[color=blue]And has anyone suggested the (approximately) Life-Sized Monitor Alarm Clock (with every line from the game as random spoken messages) in this thread?[/color]

[color=white]I'd buy that, too.[/color]

[color=green]And posters. Lots of (well, at least two) posters. A poster of the MC with the shotgun from the renders page--maybe with an option to buy each color MC? And one of the Halo 2 poster from E3 2004. It is a beautiful thing![/color]

[color=red]One[/color] [color=yellow]more![/color] [color=red]A red shirt or hoodie with a large[/color] [color=yellow]Carnage Zone[/color] [color=red]symbol on the front of it, and[/color] [color=yellow]Don't Make Us Kick Your Ass![/color] [color=red]on the back.[/color]

[color=white]What say?[/color]

A halo wallet....maybe.

POSTERS WOULD BE AWESOME.

Maybe a shirt that says "I AM THE MASTER CHIEF" or something.

STAMPS!!!!

You know those plates you can put on your guitar that are cool? Those.

(do they have one?) What would be cool is a halo font thing... but for free(downloadable). i love that HALO font.

Posters

A MARATHON SHIRT with the marathon logo on the top-left breast and on the back one of the cool bad guys... or the good guy(i dont know the names)

A life sized Pillar of Autumn warship bundled with a life Size Halo ring. As long as it is in the $50 doller price range, I'll buy it.

[Edited on 7/10/2004 4:27:45 PM]

[color=green]A car that IS a Warthog.[/color]

[color=yellow]But I don't think that fits with Sketch's parameters for the ideas they want.[/color]

It would be cool that all those people who pre-ordered Halo 2 get a free poster. That would be really sweet.

A nice button up overshirt (usually anime, made of polyester usually). with the legendary icon blown up to around 50% of the back and/or front with the word
"ranked stamped on it) or ...

same kind of shirt but taking up the back is an elete which is holding an assault rifle (which goes under the sleve on either side and on the opposite side is the sarge, pulling the shirt towards his side

or...

something with an equal number of spartans and eletes having a tug of war contest and both sides are straining but not budging. would make a good bumper sticker

or...

an anti-speciesism (similar to racism) with sapartan, elete, prophet, brute, hunter, jackal, engineer, and any i've missed or are not yet announced. have only their shape (detailed) with no texturing and just a solid color (picture a comercial from the 80s) filling in their body. all are holding hands. include guilty spark.

It would be sweet if I could get an official Bungie front bass drum skin so I could have Halo 2 on the front of my bass drum. It would then be like the official Halo 2 drum set...or not.

Remember the good old marathon days? Bring those old skool shirts back, "guns dont kill people, Pfhor do" and the rest of them that my mommy wouldnt let me buy when i was just a wee lad.

Household Items, to make your friends super-jealous.

Toilet seat covers, toilet paper (who wouldn't want to wipe their ass with their favorite halo characters?), paper towels, those things you put in your windshield to keep the car from heating up, and the ones you hang in the window to protect your kids from heatstroke, (in regards to something bathroom related, keep in mind that grunts breathe methane, the same thing our butt-music is made of, so i see endless possibilites here).

This one's a long shot, and I'm sure Microsoft wouldn't stand behind these, but I know there's more than one bungie fan that would love a Master Chief Bong, (ya know like the south-park ones, where the base is master chief's head, or 343 guilty spark).

A published history of bungie, or something similar, with plenty of full color pictures, and endless bungie rhetoric.

A webmaster hat! (It can be styled like a Green Bay Packer's Cheese-Hat, when you turn it upside down, ther'es little holders for beer cans, and the spot where you're head goes fits a bowl of Nachos very nicely).

A Halo Zippo lighter, or a torch-lighter styled after the Halo PC Flamethrower.

Bungie Coasters, because as games of Halo go deep into saturday night, and we all know Halo's sobering properties; many 6-packs can dissapear before the champion passes out.

Master Chief and Elite slippers, like the puppy-head ones, but wayyyyy more hardcore.

A Flamethrower shaped bottle opener.

"Only Legends Survive" hoodie.

Various X-Box paraphenalia, I'm very proud of my green Halo-Edition X-Box, why leave it at that?

Bumper stickers are certainly a good idea.

What's this with Halo and Mountain Dew? Halo's green, Dew-Dew is green, I see a happy marketing marriage!

Mouse pads, X-Box style PC controllers, keyboards, decals... everyone loves to make their crappy Dell look like it runs Halo PC well.

AOL instant messenger crap, like more buddy icons, AIM expressions, smileys.

Backpacks, brief cases, organizers, X-Box totes, messenger bags, duffel bags, nerd-style backpacks (the ones with the wheels!).

I loved the idea for the 343 Guilty spark alarm clock!

This list could go on, and on, and on... forever!

I don't think anyone's mentioned it but, what about a Visor? I love a good tshirt as much as the next guy, but with visors, I wouldn't have to pretend that it's been washed and cleaned in the past few weeks. Also, it's probably my surburban upbringing that has me prefering Visors to baseball caps.

Ideas as to the visor... 7th column eblem or any other symbolilc emblem on the front that only Bungie fans would recognize. The back strap would have a simple word or two. The key point being that only Bungie fans would notice the Visor's meaning.

O, and the controller. Radica's FPS Master Controller would be cool to make into an official Halo controller.... if only the under buttons were more responsive and the analog stick's dead zones were reduced significantly for the sake of pistol sniping.

Since I'm so brain-dead-bored, I'm going to post another reply to this poor dying thread.

In the world of sports, and sports entertainment, athletes and entertainers alike are required to wear some form of regulation equipment as they are doin' their thang.

I propose a new line of Halo inspired, regulation gamer equipment. Ergonomically designed mouse/keyboard pads, specifically for the purpose of playing games (Halo). Headbands to wick the sweat from the brows of legends. Chair-Wedgie-proof underwear, highly absorbant, and easily washable for the most hardcore of the hardcore. Specially designed jerseys, to both keep the player cool, and shroud some of the less attractive side effects of gaming and excessive beer consumption, with made-to-order gut sizes, and pre-yellowed armpit pads to soak up what antiperspirant cannot handle. Loose fitting and comfortable shoes to allow as much toe-curling and foot tapping as necessary. Warm-up pants (the plastic ones with the buttons down the sides) with built in anti-embolism stockings (to prevent sudden gamer death) as well as a customizable genital attachment, to eliminate unwanted bathroom trips. Because of the constant sitting position, a utility belt would only get in the way, so the answer to that would be the amazing utility chair. Inside the right armrest would be the gamers liquid of choice, cooled or heated to their specifications, available through a straw running over the gamer's shoulder. The left armrest would be used as storage space for any of the gamer's personal artifacts that he finds necessary to use during a short break in gameplay, such as an extra sweat towel, a candy bar, illegal substances, or whatever can fit. The entriety of the chair would be heated or cooled, depending on the gamer's preferences, and would have a massage function to ease the cramps and strains of twitch gaming. A small fan would circulate the air around the chair, and provide a faint scent to cover up the aroma off butt-sweat and burger-farts.

Hooray Gaming!

yes and 777= "the flaming sword" in ancient Hebrew, as accoording to the Sepher Sephiroth. 7 on it's own= fish, power, and a number of other interesting things. Hooray 7!

qoute: the Halo conlroler would be easy to producde due to the fact that all you would have to do is replace the Xbox symbol under the central cap wit a halo symbol and there you go you have an halo controler : end qoute.






Go a little further and have them add a led under it to make it glow.



How about some autographed Items? Posters or games signed by the bungie team, pics of MC and cortana signed by their voice actors. Signed soundtracks?

An exclusive figure or two.

A MC/Cortana key chain with a couple of sound snippits from the game. These sound effect or phrase keychains can be obtained easily through mass merchandise producers for cheap.

Grunt plushie all the way man, and halo sweat bands with a cool logo on them or something.
A warthog remote control toy would be decent, nothing to flash but something that moved would be cool.

How about Halo sunglasses? Like the ones where you could see a hologram in the lenses, but the one wearing them can't. Have a Master Chief or Cortana or Elite or Grunt or etc. as the lense hologram.
