Hey I was wondering if anyone had seen these yet and if so how compatible Halo 4 is with 40K.

About the right scale, but they'd look kinda weird alongside 40k minis (40k has slightly oversized heads/hands/guns, don't believe Micro Ops does). UNSC would probably mostly match up with Imperial Guard (maybe w/ Space Marine allies), not sure what Covenant would be used for, due to the great variety of races.

Fluffwise/stylistically, very different settings, despite sharing a lot of typical scifi stuff.

True but I'm more interested in the vehicles like the UNSC Falcon. Would make a great Storm Talon

Here's a pic of a Falcon next to a quarter (25mm in diameter, same size as a typical infantry round base).http://www.bbtoystore.com/mm5/mcfarlane/MCF_H_MOLC_S1_falcon_O.jpg
Looks like it's a bit small. If you go for it, I'd suggest bulking it out with some plasticard/bits, especially to accomodate the weapons. You'd have to get creative with the cockpit, though.

Edit: Here's a shot with a Storm Talon near a 25mm base model. Note how the front of the 'talon's about 50mm wide, while the front of the Falcon's a bit under 25mm.
