Kubros is a new line from Mega Bloks that takes characters from many franchises and makes large cubed versions of them. The head is disproportionately larger than the body, giving a feeling of them being akin to either Chibis or Funko figures, but in Mega Bloks form.

Master Chief is the first for the Halo portion of this line. There are several other characters from other franchises to date. For instance Assassin’s Creed, a few of the Ninja Turtles and enemies, Hellboy, Spock and Worf from Star Trek, Terminator, He-Man, Skeleton and more.

Will we get anotehr Halo Kubros character? I hope so. If I had my choice, I’d like to see the Arbiter next, then Cortana as they are the most pivotal characters in all of Halo, besides Master Chief.

I just received a small box from Amazon. Providing all the pieces re there, I’ll have 4 NEW Halo Mega Bloks reviews coming. Starting tomorrow and then one more each day for the three days thereafter.

Sets to be reviewed are (all are from the upcoming Halo Wars 2 game):

UNSC Jackrabbit Blitz

Brute Chopper Raid

Incinerator Cyclops

Strike Cyclops

All made possible by my loving wife who understands my fanaticism with collecting…

Mega Bloks has done it again. Another fun thrilling mini-sized adventure. This time with their Halo Heroes Spartan Vale figure!

Okay, now I don’t know about you folks, but I SERIOUSLY want that mini-Spirit! I hope Mega Bloks makes that as a set too!!!

That looks phenomenal! Lots of pieces. Might be 200 there. That would be a $20 and I’d TOTALLY buy it for that price!
