Halo Mega Construx PREVIEW: Pelican Inbound

The third of the originally shown Infinite sets from New York Toy Fair this year and now with more pics is the “Pelican Inbound” set!
This set boasts 2024 pieces and is rumored to retail for $149.99 U.S.

As previously seen, the Pelican set can also be built into a walled structure. Additionally, there is a large rocket and a forklift!

The set comes with the “Brohammer” pilot, Master Chief and a Banished styled Hunter.

There are some really cool features to this set. As seen below, you can pivot the wings up and down as well as away from the body.

This results in the Pelican opening up like this so you can get to the inside easier.

The Pelican has some great bulk to is as you would expect.

As well, there are several small details that really add to the play value and in-game comparison of the set.

In particular, I like the below shot as it’s a great recreation of the one from the trailer last year.

This Pelican is unlike any build before it. This in the way it separates. As well, note the wheels on the underside near the nose.

Here is the official text blurb from Mega’s site about the Pelican Inbound set:
