The series is unique in that McFarlane based the figures off of fan requests.

===Brute Captain===
The '''Brute Captain''' figure is based off the [[Brute Captains]] from ''Halo 3: ODST''. It is unique in that appears in the manner one would see them in [[VISR]] mode. It is armed with a [[Brute Plasma Rifle]] and [[Spike Grenade]] and features 26 points of articulation.

Additionally, it is painted with glow-in-the-dark paint. However, the paint glows green, designating it has a friendly in VISR, despite the fact that Brutes are enemies.

===Buck===
The '''Buck''' action figure is based off of [[Edward Buck]]. He is in his [[ODST]] armor and is armed with an [[MA5C Individual Combat Weapon System]]. It features 26 points of articulation.

The body is an updated mold of the Rookie's body, due to complaints about parts falling off, etc. However, there is still no weapon storage available, and the paint job actually makes him look quite unlike his counterpart in the game.

The figure also includes an ODST helmet that can be taken off to reveal Buck's face underneath.

===Ripa 'Moramee===
The '''Ripa 'Moramee''' figure is based off of the [[Arbiter]] from ''Halo Wars''. It is armed with dual [[Energy Swords]] and has 26 points of articulation.

He is taller than the average Elite figure, but the mold makes him difficult to pose. His energy swords are also hard to remove, even more so than the Arbiter figure from Series 2. They are also block coloured a deep purple, instead of the traditional white fading into blue.
