so i went into gamestop couple days ago to pick up fable and asked about that bad ass halo2 3D display (the one with master cheif in the pose from the trailer and there's like 3 or 4 layers to it), and the guy in there said they usually just throw them away after the game comes out. he asked me if i wanted it since nobody else asked about it yet, took my name and number, and said he'd ask his manager if i could have it. so, try the same thing at ur local stores and maybe u can get ur hands on one too. pretty hot if u ask me. maybe i'll sell it on ebay.

You realize if you do infact sell it on Ebay the day of Halo 2's release, you would instantly become a zillionaire!?!? Go for it! I haven't seen it, but by the sounds of it, I'd pay quite a bit for it.

i live in north jersey, but i'm at school right now (rutgers). i go to menlo park mall, which is in edison. i've seen the display in a bunch of stores though, not only this one. i hope that guy at the store comes through an i get my hands on that -blam!-. i might not even sell it, but i'd entertain offers when the time comes. haha

I'd be really suprised and jealous if you got it. I WORK at a GameStop, and all us employees were fighting over them. And the guy who's getting it is getting TWO! One from the other GameStop in the area. I'd whine about it, but it's not going to do me any good. Plus he wrote his name all over the back of it with a Sharpie.

I saw them going for $160 on eBay, but it still had a few days to go before the auction ended. I was told at work today the auctions are ending at around $500. So the guy who's getting two is selling one.

I'm gonna start a thread requesting that Bungie sell the Halo 2 standees in their store up until the release for slightly above cost. I'd love to have one in my basement with the amount of LAN parties I have at my house. I'm even thinking about holding one with prizes for Halo 2. Does that make me eligible for one, Bungie? :)

Yea, i agree with you. I'm just going by what the guy said. I was suprised when he told me that nobody, even the employees of the store, asked to keep it and that i can have it. so, hopefully i'll end up gettin it, but i wouldn't be shocked if they ended up dicking me over.
