The only figure which was released as announced was the ODST Drop Pod figure with the Rookie. The series originally featured Fred-104 and Usze 'Taham as stand-alone figures, but they were repurposed as boxed sets including other figures. However, several figures have been canceled and were not featured at all: [[Kojo Agu|Romeo]] from ''Halo 3: ODST'', an [[Commando harness|Elite Commando]] from ''Halo 3'', a [[Jiralhanae Captain Major|Brute Captain Major]] also from ''Halo 3'', and a multiplayer Spartan which was not precised. There was also a "build-a-figure", but its nature was not revealed and it was canceled. | The only figure which was released as announced was the ODST Drop Pod figure with the Rookie.
