Even the Bungie Action Sack is "box" sized.

But ya know... I bet if you twisted his arm real, real hard, you could convince the guy who runs the Bungie Store to carry a halo-shaped box. A collectors item, as an extra reward for those who buy direct from Bungie? Of course, then you have to design two boxes, but you could probably get away with not putting a lot of detail or text on a direct-from-Bungie special box (after all, the Quack 3 cookie tin looks pretty austere in the photos I've seen).

Of course, an extra box does increase the design time and materials cost, and would probably make the game an extra two weeks late...
