Real-life Halo spike grenade not for the timid
Remember the full size custom Warthog from the upcoming Halo fan film, Operation Chastity? It looks like the creation of more props is rolling right along, as HBO points out the handmade Brute spike grenade seen above. As you can see, it's made to scale, meaning it's huge compared to an average human, and even pretty hefty for a seven foot tall Spartan. The prop was created by smick6, who also created the excellent replica Brute Spiker we featured earlier this year. The (fake) grenade is made entirely of ABS plastic and (presumably) a lot of love. Assuming the quality of Operation Chastity is on par with its props, we just might be in for a treat when the film is finally completed.
Your custom-made Warthog isn't this good
Well, unless you work for Weta, of course. The Warthog above, as seen on Pixelated Geek, was made by a company called Custom Creations, and was built for the Halo fan film, Operation Chastity. That's right, it was made for a fan film. Not to put too fine a point on it, but had we been tasked with building a Warthog, it probably wouldn't even be as good as modified Power Wheels. Suffice it to say, it's pretty nice. To see some pics of the Warthog's construction process -- it took approximately a year to build -- head over to the official Operation Chastity website. The project begins filming in 2010.
