Words can't describe how excited I am for Halo 4. As a fan of the franchise, and a passionate lego builder, I decided to make this ghost. Took me a while, however there were a few pieces I ordered online, so building was delayed from time to time. I'll probably be making some more vehicles once the game comes out :)
About this creation
The Type-32 Rapid Assault Vehicle, or the Type-32 RAV, or just the Ghost.
I like the new deep navy blue colour that 343 gave it. A very nice touch to the classic Halo vehicle.
At one point I got so excited about this model, having been inspired by Benny Brickster's Wraith, I had the idea of adding some lights for the boosters. Unfortunately I found that the model was too small and drastic changes would be needed to fit the LED lights that were available :(

The front guns. I think they are perfect compared to the real ones in the game.
The head of the ghost is made from a horse helmet I got from one of the new Castle sets. I thought it was just the right shape.
Pedals
...and finally the drivers seat. If you're wondering why I didn't put in my Chief, it's because sadly I can't put him into a sitting position, otherwise his paint would scratch.
So there you have it. My first Lego Halo 4 vehicle. I am looking forward to making more Halo 4 vehicles (and playing the hell out of the actual game of course), and being the creative person that I am, I also can't wait another minute to play the new Forge mode, which looks amazing :D
Halo 4 will be 1 one the greates charapters of the saga! And seems to be a great game under all the aspects! ^^
Anyway this ghost looks really good, a nice work to reproduce the original :D
(btw, the ghost is also the best vehicle in halo XD)
