As some of you know I LOVE collecting Halo toys. Mega Bloks is one of the top two licensees I collect (the other being McFarlane).

Mega Bloks has some incredible Halo toys out there. Every few months they come out with a new series of collectible minifigures. These are blind packaging, though you do see at least what consists of the wave on the outside of the packet.

These retail for around $3-3.50 US depending on where you get them from.

Series 6 has now been revealed, take a look:

For this series we get:

Grunt: Okay, this is essentially the same as the one we got in series 5. I’m not complaining though. I LOVE building up small armies of the little guys.
Purple EOD Spartan: I like the armor, and the color is fantastic. I’m not normally a purple person, but for these minifigs it’s a good color.
Yellow Mark V [b] Spartan: This mold of the minifig has only been available in the +$100 Sabre Countdown set. So to be able to get it here is great! Especially if you want to make a custom default Noble 6 by painting him.
Tan Marine w/masked face: Again, another good army builder. With the recent tan armory sets released, this minifig will help to augment those troops.
Jackal: WHOLLY MOLY! I’m SO glad and excited this minifig is being made available. I’ve wanted to build up a small army of these for awhile. I may ask for your help in finding this one folks. I’m trying to build up an army of 30. I already have 10 from previous sets…
Cyan Elite (yes, cyan, not blue): Again, a good color and sought after by Halo Mega Bloks collectors. Nice to have elites to build up too.
Stealth EVA: OMG, this is one I’m very much looking forward to having. I LOVE this shark-skin color. This color has only been previously available in Toys R Us exclusive sets. So, to be able to add to that squad with a single pack figure is a great addition!
Crimson “Not-Jorge” Spartan: Previously available as “Not-Jorge” in the Spade vs Skirmisher set and the Flood Siege set as the stealth color, the Crimson version is a VERY welcome redux. I’m a fan of the color anyway, so this is a no-brainer pick up for me.

Also, be on the lookout for certain other extremely rare minifigs not shown on the packaging. For instance in the previous series we had a translucent Red, translucent blue, and translucent “smoke” spartans in the series, though not pictured on the packaging.

Rumor has it there will be a translucent Purple Elite… I LOVE translucent toys. Just seeing how the are made and come together is something I’ve always found VERY cool.

Are you a Halo Mega Bloks fan?
