The big thing on the last mission of this week's current Spops episode. Looks like it has Covenant aspects to it, and Forerunner. But it's got an alien appearance to it, way more alien than anything we've seen before, and I doubt this thing belongs to the Covenant. It looks like a giant insect of sorts, has something that looks like a spine on the "ceiling" inside of it, and spews out green gasses.
The more I think about it, the more I feel like this thing is the palace of pain or something. What are your folks thoughts on this oddity of a machine?

All covenant equipment looks insect-like. I first thought is was something like the [google] Super scarab [/google]. But I wanted to see it 'splode.
-
when I first saw the thing, I honestly thought the Collectors had made it.
-
At first glance I honestly thought it was some kind of Flood monster thing. I hope they give a little more of an explanation to whatever it is.
-
When I saw the trailer I thought it was a Precursor. I wish we'd see this thing in action, it can't have been defeated just like that.
-
I get the impression that it's a dead animal/insectoid that got hollowed out and re-purposed.

I think it would be helpful to people that don't know what you're talking about to embed a picture of the harvester instead of what you have now.

Is it that huge scarab looking thing from the trailer?
