Yes, that's right, you can bid on your very own Master Chief helmet. The current bid is $610 and it is reported to have been bought originally from a Microsoft Employee. While you can't actually wear the helmet you can use it as decoration or brag about it to all your Halo playing buddies.

With the Halo 3 beta officially over and the world now waiting on pins and needles for the highly-anticipated title to come out, here's an opportunity to get in touch with the legend that is Master Chief himself before any other Halo fan could - and that's by ownership of the Spartan Helmet that's currently up for grabs on eBay.

For a mere pittance of US$ 250, one can actually examine and touch a meticulously-detailed, if a bit downsized, realization of Master Chief's helmet. Purchased directly from a Microsoft employee, this gem is as brand-new and exclusive as it gets.

Too bad you can't wear it for the full Master Chief experience, but hey - it makes for a great centerpiece, and it's an interesting conversational item that would drive any Halo fan in the vicinity green with envy. At least, until the game gets released in its Legendary Edition, of course.
