If I may suggest, the destiny line can be used to make the Spartans taller. Upper arms, torso, and thighs. This takes slight modifications to the thighs to allow spartan armor but the payoff is excellent.Yan_MCX wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 6:47 pmHey everyone.
I encourage you to speak out if you feel strongly about the design of our products, whether it's positive or negative. Just remember not to let it turn into personal attacks. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and it's okay to disagree.
We knew this would be a controversial decision. The difference in height is a few millimetres and it's not the first time we've had to cheat on scale a little bit. That's the challenge of doing a construction line using a system of standard parts.
This is not necessarily a permanent change. The design team is listening and already exploring other options.

-Swivel feet molds for Spartans possibly the most expensive new mold making but the simplest and a more innovated design.
-Spartan Torsos taller similar to destiny molds. Modified Destiny upper legs molds (sanded down to fit armor slots) can also help produce an even standing.
etc. In fact, lets spend the rest of this thread discussion talking about alternatives instead of complaining to be more constructive. :)
I hope it is a permanent change. If not I'll have to cannibalize my CoD collection to make them fit, as I've already done with older-style Marines to put them shoulder-to-shoulder with the new ones. This was great! Spent more money on Halo this year than I have in the last five combined. Now if only the arms were a little longer (like the CoD arms) to make it easier to shoulder a rifle...Yan_MCX wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 6:47 pmHey everyone.

I’m down for some big elitesrimsky wrote: ↑Thu Oct 08, 2020 10:06 pmHonestly not a fan of this. I get this is a toy, but do remember that alot of these species such as brutes and elites basically tower over the humans by 3-4 feet. Currently we're getting marines that are taller than all these species including the spartans which doesnt really make sense. Same with the grunts, why are they so dang chunky now? It doesnt make sense since they are smaller/shorter.
Overall, i dont mind spartans/marines being around same height, but at least make elites/brutes taller than them (its not like a foot height difference in halo lore, but rather 3-4 ft as mentioned earlier, they are friggin HUGE).
well then use the Pro builder series legs... if im not mistaken they are able to fit the cod leg piecesYan_MCX wrote: ↑Mon Jun 29, 2020 6:47 pmHey everyone.
