\"Collectors
\n<\/a>This packaging is quite different than anything else that we’ve gotten from Mega Bloks. It’s pretty cool.<\/p>\n

\"Collectors
\n<\/a>The back of the box shows the figures off very nicely. As well, it shows two of the Blue series sets.<\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Here are the minifigs pre-assemebled in separate baggies.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>The weapons included. Nice assortment here. Not really a fan of the Pink energy sword, but not a detractor though.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Minifigure stands.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Covenant minifigs. I didn’t show the additional Elite Commando here as it’s the same. The Elite general is a great color.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Here are the gold Spartans. SHINY!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors
\n<\/a>Oh that sweet active camo effect!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Here’s the whole gang hanging out and waving to the crowd.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Collectors<\/a>Is a battle about to ensue? Hmm, looks like the Air Assault Spartan is getting the drop on one of the Elite Commandos.<\/p>\n

Summary: <\/strong>No time needed to build this as it’s just the figures, weapons and their stands. The figs came pre-assembled. This is a nice set. The Gold color is very nice. I do wonder why there were two of the same style elite in this one, especially since it wasn’t the common Elite minor (most common in the game). Still, the Covenant figures are great for army building. Of course I LOVE the active camo figure. As a fan of clear figures anytime one of these is offered I’m always glad to add it to my collection.<\/p>\n

The valur is decent enough. At $20, it puts each figure at $2.50 each, which is less than the single blind pack figures.<\/p>\n

Overall Rating:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>I give this set 9 out for 10 medals. It would have got a 10 had it had a different figure other than the duplicate.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading and let me know what you think of the review. If you have this set yourself, please give me your thoughts on it too!<\/p>\n
