    Hey guys,
    Trying to get a price range for this. I'm a huge Halo fan and have had this for roughly a year. My intention was for it to go in my man cave with all my rare xbox consoles. However, I have a daughter now and my spare room got turned into a bedroom lol. The statue is 6ft tall approx. and was given to retailers during the launch of Halo 2. Sorry for the dark pics, he is in the corner out of the way currently.

    That's pretty sweet.
    Can't really help with your original question (of value). I imagine that would be a bitch to ship. How many pieces does it break down into?

    The arms come off separately. The torso and legs are one whole piece if I remember correctly and the rock is separate. I did a local pick-up up when I got it.

    It depends on where you live. No one is driving 500 miles to get it from Kansas.

    If it's in the middle of nowhere, it's worth probably about $400

    If it's in a major city, $1500 or more.

    Freight will run you about $300 unless you have a pick up and destination with a loading ramp (commercial property)

    I live about 45 mins south of DC. And I do have access to a loading dock via my employer.

    Can I strap it to my Mini Cooper on my trip to Florida? Surely it would survive that.

    One in the middle of Washington state (read nowhere) sold for $750 with pickup.

    I'd aim for $1500 and you should get some shipping estimates. You don't want to do 1500 and free
    shipping, then find out it's going to the middle of Montana and the fees are 70% the value of the sale.
