From Halopedia, the Halo wiki

Campaign
The Rookie
The The Rookie Action Figure is based on the main protagonist, The Rookie, from Halo 3: ODST. It is six inches tall and features removable shoulder armor. It is the second ODST figure made by McFarlane. This figure includes a M7S Caseless Submachine Gun and a Halo 3: ODST medal. The M7S uses the older design with the stock collapsed. The figure features 24 points of articulation.
The Rookie's armor color is Pantone 418C. This led to the original prototype appearing too green, and required that the paint application be adjusted. Additionally, the sculpt is confirmed to have a defect. Upon removal from the box, The Rookie's hands may fall off, due to the different joint used on the hand. This was later corrected. The new version has a white stripe on the helmet and a white chestplate, along with a darker visor, hands that don't fall off, and slightly higher durability. The armor is still somewhat green though, and the camouflage patterns are still greenish.
It is worth 20 Halo Points.

Rtas 'Vadum
The Rtas Vadum Action Figure is a model of the Elite Shipmaster from Halo 2 and 3. It is 6 inches tall and includes an Energy Sword, a Plasma Grenade, and a Sword Spree Medal.
Originally, Joyride Studios considered making a figure of Rtas 'Vadum, but thought it was pointless to make an Elite with a different paint job. He is called Rtas' Vadumee on the package, despite the fact that he removed this suffix from his name after seceding from the Covenant. The Energy Sword appears to have a more purple color, as to the bluish color in the games.

The Spartan Recon action figures come in two colors. There are two variants: a white variant and a steel variant. The have 26 points of articulation. Both are six inches tall and are worth 10 Halo Points each.

The white Recon figure has multiple errors in its design, including shoddy painting and fragile limbs. The dual magnums have pegs on the same side; if they were both to be holstered on the figure, one of the weapons would be backwards. Additionally, the magnums are not scaled to fit in the hands of the figure.[3]
