I found these pics on a Halo Mega Bloks fan page on Facebook. (Apologies to the page and the owner of these pics for not proper credit) I’ve been sitting on these pics for a good week now and have forgotten who posted them and which fan site. Terrible oversight on my part. As soon as I find out who’s these are, I’ll be sure to properly credit them for their pics.
Yankee Squad is an army builder’s dream!

Just found this through a Halo Mega Bloks fan Facebook page!
We first caught a glimpse of this from Toy Fair this year. The name was thought to be the ‘Fox Cannon’. Now we have the actual name. Kodiak sounds MUCH better as it’s a massive bear in comparison to a puny little fox. LOL
Here’s the text about this from Amazon:
This is a very cool little vid showcasing Buck, one of the Halo Heroes series 1 figures.
Oh and look for my reviews of the whole of series 1 coming VERY soon!

This is a reblog from Halo Waypoint (with commentary by me too of course):
We now have five new stances to choose from for all available print sizes: Patrol, Center Mass, Looks Skyward, Tactical Carry, and Flanker. Not only that, based on your feedback we’ve also added a brand new premium size option – featuring twice the print material, and twice the armor, weapon, and color detail. It’s the ultimate option for the hardcore collector, and you can order yours today. Continue reading
New to the Halo line of toys comes Jakks Pacific. They are known for the HUGE action figures. This is their first foray into Halo as a licensee. What a great choice for their first figure, none other than Master Chief!
Before I get started, let me first say a big thanks to Jakks for sending me not one, but TWO of these. I will be giving one away, so stay tuned for details of that contest.
Secondly, I normally do product reviews with a white background. However, this figure is SO HUGE, that I had to set it on the floor. I chose to pose it in front of my dishwasher,,, This way the background was mostly black. kay, those out of the way, let’s get started with the review, shall we?
Technical Specs:
Height: 31 inches tall
Cost: $50 US, plus tax
Articulation: Limited, will explain below with pics as well
As always, click on pics to make bigger. Continue reading
Recently found via the inter webs, comes news of a Halo Mega Bloks Strategy Game. Hmm, interesting.
Here’s the info via EntertainmentEarth.com:
Bring the massively popular Halo franchise to life on your tabletop with the Mega Bloks Halo Strategy Game! Command a fire team of 3 Spartan commandoes with the goal of outmaneuvering, outshooting, and outsmarting your opponent in a fierce battle for control. Dominate strategically important zones or knock out your opponent’s Spartans to win! The Mega Bloks Halo Strategy Game comes with over 180 Mega Bloks pieces including exclusive mini figures, weapons, dice, rangefinder, and scoring blocks. See you on the tabletop, Spartan!
The price for this is listed as $32.99 and is available May, 2016.
This in likelihood will be something on the order of the LEGO board games (though of course with the Mega Bloks license instead…)
Once more information becomes available, I’ll post it here.
i will have more details about the contest later this week. For now, I wanted to let you folks know that I received an extra Jakks 3ft tall Master Chief direct from the manufacture to use as a giveaway.
Thisnis what you will be vying for:
This weekend 16 teams will battle it out during the Halo World Championship 2016 Finals for the title of Halo World Champion and their share of a $2.5 million prize pool. But when the dust has settled and the winning team has been decided, there will still be another honor to be awarded – the most valuable player. One player will be recognized for his performance as an individual who has contributed to his team in an exemplary manner. The lucky recipient of this title will not only walk away with the honor and recognition of being the MVP of the biggest Halo tournament in history, but also this awesome custom BR MVP trophy provided by our friends at Mega Bloks:

What’s pretty cool is with the exception of one set, each set has as part of it’s name something of quick movement in battle. Raid; Ambush; Blitz; Rush…
