This is part one of two for this review. In this part, I will take you through the contents of the set, the building of the base and platform. In part two, the Pelican itself comes together.
I’ve actually had this set since December 2015. Was missing a few parts, so waited to get those from Mega, then just forgot to post this review as I was busy with other things. Apologies there.

Once again, apologies to the owner of these pics as I don’t know who you are to give you proper credit. When I find out who it is, I will be sure to update this article as such.
This new Brute set is indicative of what to expect from Halo Wars 2. Beyond that though, it’s another army builder’s dream! FOUR Brutes! All have the new super articulation and removable armor.
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!
