Halo: Flashpoint – Organised Play, Show Specials, and the Bani…
14th Mar 2025
Ronnie Renton
Hello all,
Ronnie here, with some of the awesome things you can expect in the coming weeks and months for the bestselling, super-exciting, best-miniatures-game-nominated, world-famous Halo: Flashpoint!
Let's Start with Wave 2
The War Games Expansion and the new Spartan models are now arriving in warehouses around the world. If you pre-ordered from the Mantic site, or a 3rd party, expect them sometime in the week running up to AdeptiCon.
And they will be be available in your FLGS the last weekend of March – and if you are lucky enough to go to AdeptiCon and didn’t pre-order them, we will have them at the booth – so you can get them there!
2025 Show Specials
And talking of that, we have a 2025 Show Special for Halo – and to kick off this year’s show season you’ll be able to get a first chance to see them at AdeptiCon (US) and SALUTE (UK).
We have taken the original 4 Spartans, reposed them (to some very cool and exciting action poses – the type of thing impossible in 1 piece plastic), and put them in the very best material we can find - our new Mantic MasterCraft™ Resin.
No new cards this time (as you'll already have them from either starter set or the War Games expansion) – these are for the painters and the people who want the absolute best minis possible, and I think they do that…
...meet Fireteam Phoenix!
We understand that not everyone can get to the shows however, and we will not leave any Spartan behind – so these will go up for pre-order on our webstore from the time of AdeptiCon, and come down after SALUTE at the end of April. We will then make them and ship them in May. Nobody misses out on their chance to order this fantastic show special!
And because we want our FLGS partners to come on this journey with us, they too can get you a copy of these very limited-edition 1-print special miniatures - just ask!
Organised Play
Back in January we had our first UK event (below), and the upcoming events at AdeptiCon sees hundred more getting their first taste of competitive Halo: Flashpoint play.
To coincide with this, we are launching several sets for Organised Play, including some available to any and all event organisers, so you can get your gaming club having a mini event or a school league.
We also have in store activity packs “Rumbling” their way into stores soon, and all of these come with very collectible exclusive upgrade cards, and other not-for-sale-swag!
Some sets require Mantic sign-off: these are the top tier OP kits, aimed at encouraging the building a global network of regional and national tournaments – with some spectacular prizes. Keep an eye on the blog for a separate feature on our full OP plans, and also some upcoming digital support for Halo: Flashpoint.
Check out the full Organised Play preview HERE.
Looking Forward
After all that, it seems like AdeptiCon (shortly followed by SALUTE) is becoming a bit of a big event, so a perfect time to show off what is coming next for Halo…and if I say it is something huge, big, …brutal even..., I don’t think I could be accused of exaggeration. Certainly not enough to get Banished for! 😉
Tune in on the 26th March to find out more,
