Halo Warthog for Real

If you're a Halo fan then you have seen the Halo 3 "Arms Race" short. The Warthogs that appear in the video may or may not be real, but now for sure, there is an actual Warthog. Yes real, as in not a prop, but a true, fully functional Warthog. Bungie's weekly update gives us a little information on the this incredible machine. It drives with the same 4-wheel drive mechanics as the Warthogs in the games and it has a machine gun on the back. Does the machine gun actually fire live rounds? Who knows, but anyone would get out of the way if they saw this beast coming.

Can you image seeing someone driving around in that thing? It wouldn't just rock your balls off, it would shoot them off with the machine gun and crush them into paste by doing mad donuts. The Warthog was made by WETA and will see appearances in more upcoming live action Halo 3 shorts. If you need to see the Warthog in more detail and much bigger (and why wouldn't you?) here is Bungie's super huge Warthog image of pure awesome. Now how about some shots of it in action?
