Production notes

• Most of the poses from the Season 01: Heroes of Reach Battle Pass are based on members of NOBLE Team: Noble Command to Carter-A259, Noble Confidence to Catherine-B320, Noble Strike to Jun-A266, Noble Fury to Emile-A239, Noble Justice to Jorge-052, and Special Delivery to SPARTAN-B312.
• The Act of Genesis stance is based on a render of John-117 from Halo 5: Guardians.
• The Agent 117 stance is a reference to Agent 47, of the Hitman franchise, who is typically shown in a similar pose with his signature AMT Hardballer pistols.
