So there are actually TWO new Falcons coming from Mega Bloks. We already knew about the steel version. That’s news that’s been around for a good month or so now.
However, I just found out about this BLUE version.
I must say, the Falcon looks AWESOME in Blue. It kind of reminds me more of a Police Chopper. Hmm, I wonder if there is a Red one to follow sometime down the line?
Here is the official text from Mega Bloks about this set:
Blue Series Falcon
97204
Establish your army, build and expand your units with the Blue Series Falcon by Mega Bloks Halo! The Falcon is a troop transport aircraft that is also used in support of ground forces. It is armed with side-mounted heavy machine guns and a chin-mounted autocannon. The Blue Series Falcon features a Spartan Air Assault and Spartan Grenadier in new cobalt blue armor, ready to defend UNSC strongholds against Covenant invaders!
Ideal for children ages 8 and up!
Features:
• Buildable UNSC Falcon in blue
• UNSC Spartan in Air Assault and Grenadier blue armor
• Weapons: M247 Machine Gun, M6C SOCOM
Besides a Team Red version, I’d LOVE to see an Arctic (White) version of this too.
News about this set should be forthcoming during San Diego Comicon this week. I’ll be covering that, so stayed tuned to HaloFanForLife.com for more on Mega Bloks and Halo in general.
