Template:Ratings Template:Outofdate The Halo line of action figures began in 2003, made by Joyride Studios, who produced the Halo: Combat Evolved and most Halo 2 lines. In March 2008, the Todd McFarlane company began producing the Halo 3 action figure sets. Eventually, they began making the Halo Wars, Halo 3: ODST, and Halo: Reach series figures, with the occasional Halo 2 figure. It was revealed at the Comic Con 2010 that Square Enix would be producing figures from Halo: Reach.

Joyride Studios produced both the Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 action figures. The Joyride figures were released in more series, but each series had only four-five figures.
Joyride included a serial number on each figure designating when it was created. This date code has four numbers followed by 'SS' stamped or embossed in the cardboard packaging. The first three digits represent the date the product was made, and the fourth digit is the year. For example: 2653SS means the product was manufactured on the 265th day of 2003 (9/23/2003).
