San Diego’s famous Comic-Con is only a couple short weeks away! If you’re planning on going, you’d better make your plans and you’d better make it snappy (most days are already sold out you know). But the best part about going? These Halo bobbleheads are for sale!

According to the Bungie weekly update, the famous Halo developer’s presence at Comic-Con 08 will be pretty much non-existant. However, Microsoft reps will be there hyping up the next Halo novel and these super cool Spartan and Master Chief bobbleheads. Bring cash. Lots and lots of cash.

Personally, I’d try for a Cortana bobble… something… but MasterChief Bobbleheads are cool too …

We recently reported on the upcoming sixth Halo novel, Halo: The Cole Protocol. Well, the Cole Protocol will also be published simultaneously with an audiobook. Great news, now you can so you can listen to the next iteration of the Halo story while playing Halo. What a great life we live.

As we said earlier, the book is supposed to focus on some “unexplored conflict” in the Great war against the Covenant, will reveal lots of details about the Spartan Gray Team, and is penned by Crystal Rain author Tobias S. Buckell for a Fall 2008 release.

Full details from the press releaseafter the jump.
