Animatronic Halo Elite Costume Will Have You Screaming “Wart, Wart, Wart!”

June 26, 2010, By Christian Davis

We’ve seen home made costumes from many videogame series. Most use cardboard boxes and paint, the guys at PeteMander GFX went above and beyond to make this suit as realistic as possible.

Halo Elite Costume

Standing at least 7 feet tall, this mountainous suit would make any Master Chief wannabe wet his own pants.

    This looks soooo cool

  • Alex Panait / June 26th, 2010

    Wow… this is amazing.

  • Kimmy / June 26th, 2010

    Wow, that is ridiculously awesome.

  • Amsoil / June 27th, 2010

    I’d buy one of those in a New York minute for Halloween! When can I fly out and have one of these custom fit for me? That would be a blast to walk the neighborhoods in that thing.

  • Kike / June 27th, 2010

    Excellent work guys!! that elite is fucking scary, a rampage with this costume into a primary school would be awesome :D

  • Majed / June 27th, 2010

    I want this. Now.

  • Darre / June 27th, 2010

    BiBronze-com makes a Halo Master Chief 90″ tall from bronze sculpture. Cool

  • sdawg36 / June 27th, 2010

    Wow, that is awesome. I’ll take two.

  • asdf / June 27th, 2010

    Good job, but where are the animatronics? lol

  • Christian Davis / June 27th, 2010

    There is a video on their webisite under “Demo Reels.” Shows the movement of the mouth. At the end of the video you may have noticed that it says “To be continued…”

    There will probably be another video soon showing the suit when it’s 100% completed. I’ll be sure you let you guys know when it’s up.

    A massive “battle” between hundreds of theses and “spartans” would make for an epic promo video

  • Michael / June 27th, 2010

    Very cool suit!

    P.S. – I love the Tim Horton’s coffee cups!

  • miguel / June 28th, 2010

    That thing is crazy!! Imagine that walking down the street at night… hell! I will be running like never before! lol Great job guys!

  • Helljumper / June 28th, 2010

    This is an incredible piece of work! It does however seem a little bit too big though. Elites are a little over 7 feet tall standing upright (and this costume is apparently about 7 feet tall), but presuming the guys in the first picture are nearly 6 feet tall, then the elite must be getting on for 9 feet! Also it’s a shame they used a Halo Wars elite as a basis for the design as I always thought they looked a bit funny. But despite these extremely minor points… awesome!

  • c / June 29th, 2010

    bet these guys all still live in their mom’s basement.

  • Alex Ion / June 29th, 2010

    @c … if they can come up with something like that, then I don’t mind :) )

  • Joyous Exhaultation / June 30th, 2010

    @Helljumper — you might want to brush up on your halo literature before spewing you criticisms, if you you took time to read any of the books (which i’m guessing you haven’t) the elites are almost exclusively described as “over 3 meters tall”…

    nice job on the costume.. you guys should contact those dudes who were making the MJOLNIR armor and stage a fight or something

  • urah losah / June 30th, 2010

    what a waste of goddamn time. these guys are virgins.

  • Yop / July 1st, 2010

    Predator???

  • You're wrong / July 1st, 2010

    To the short sighted mofo that is the “urah loser” comment.
    You don’t realize there’s always huge demand for model makers in the entertainment/movie industries. These so called “losers” if they keep up what they’re capable of doing will all be making more money in a few years then many of you short sighted hicks will make in your lifetimes. Read and weep.

  • mutuelle / July 2nd, 2010

  • DN / July 4th, 2010

  • Wun Long Wang / July 5th, 2010

  • Wun Long Wang / July 5th, 2010

  • Dan Wahey / July 7th, 2010

    Great scott! There isn’t much I wouldn’t do to own a suit like this, I’d love to casually stroll into my local GAME store and buy Halo: Reach whilst wearing it. Imagine the looks on peoples faces!

  • dambl / July 9th, 2010

    In what way is this animatronic?

  • james / July 11th, 2010

    Wow! That’s simply amazing! I wish I could make something like that!

  • shialily79 / July 19th, 2010

    Xpert….you also can not spell at all. Why don’t you brush up on your spelling before you criticize somebody else work…..

  • Matt / July 19th, 2010

    dude, you call yourself an expert on photoshop, well i taught photoshop classes for 2 years and took them for 5…what do you know? Seems to me like your some little kid who’s a little mad he didnt get a suit mailed to him…theres nothing wrong with the pictures friend, and the video, is legit…sooo not that anyone for a second believed your stupid claims…all the same, i think i speak for everyone when i say gtfo of the post if it bugs you that much you buzzkill, if you ever REALLY want to learn anything about photoshop, kiddo..Inglemoor blue ribbon high school in Kenmore is a pretty nice place to learn, id love to teach you some time.

  • Best Xbox 360 Games / July 22nd, 2010

    I’m a believer – looks awesome :)

  • Xpert / July 25th, 2010

    @Matt
    you obviously consider yourself an intellectual, but you aren’t smart enough to notice sarcasm when it comes up behind you and rapes you in the butt. Maybe I’ll come to Inglemoor high school and give you a visit in your special needs class.

    @shialily79
    brush up on your spelling and grammar before criticizing someone else’s.

  • cody / July 25th, 2010

    lol can you imagine walking down the street on halloween having kids stare at you and then u look at one and roar lol holy crap that would be great!

    Successful troll is successful

  • Demarcus / August 7th, 2010

  • Shane / August 11th, 2010

    This has something to do with a video game or some film or something I think, bloody rubbish for kids.
