<p>So, back in 2011 I went to Halo Fest at PAX Prime in Seattle. It was the tenth anniversary and there was basically a whole building dedicated to Halo. There was a whole timeline laid out with some awesome concept art. I remember seeing a couple of little dioramas along with full sized statues of Master Chief and a Warthog. Of course you could play the games, but I was more interested in the Mega Blox area. I even walked away with a free set that I gave to my brother. I did grab an adorable grunt plushie, which I suddenly realize is worth more than I thought. The highlight of the weekend was a live reading of a Red vs Blue episode with all the voice actors. This was back when RTX hadn&#8217;t really taken off, so seeing everyone at once was a big deal.</p>
