Whew, series 8 has barely been out and now we have pics of series 9!!! I want to thank Russell and Kevin, readers of the blog for passing me the link to these.<\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6908\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6971\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So let’s talk about these individually, shall we?<\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6972\"<\/a>Ah good another Brute Stalker. Honestly, I wanted more of the blue version seen with the UNSC Cobra set (I previously reviewed HERE<\/a>). However, I’ll take this one for sure! Nice color AND it has a gravity hammer. YES! Now I should be able to easily collect those hammers so I can finally make a Grifball diorama!!!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6973\"<\/a>I am always up for more Grunts! I like the color of this little fella. Nice to have another wine color Needler as well.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6974\"<\/a>HOLE EEEE SH…shucks!!! OMG, this is FANTASTIC!!!!! I LOVE Skirmishers. I’ve been asking and asking Mega to make these again. Now to have an Active Camo one to boot?!?
\nAWESOME!!!! Just a little curious why the weapon isn’t Active Camo as well. Not a detractor at all, just curious is all. I’ve got to have 2-3 of this fig. I’m betting it’s the Ultra Rare of this wave.<\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6975\"<\/a>Sweet, an Alpha Crawler with the blue highlights. This is an excellent follow up to the regular Crawler and Watcher with blue highlights each in Series 8.\u00a0
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6976\"<\/a>Can we haz Recon? Why yes we can! I’m always game for Green Spartans. Though I do wish this was the “Not-Madsen” color instead. Hopefully we see him done the line.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6977\"<\/a>Wow, we haven’t seen a Flame Marine in a LONG time, that I recall. Nice to have another one. I think it’s quite appropriate that it’s orange too. Kind of goes with the “flame” theme!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6978\"<\/a>Yellow Security eh? Okay, I like the color. I’m just not a fan of the helmet. Too “BUG” for me. Still, I know a lot of fans who DO like this helmet, so it’s a welcome addition to the blind pack series.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

\"megabloks-micro-action-figures-series-9-96978-6979\"<\/a>Hmm, a Red C.I.O. Spartan and wait, what’s that he’s carrying???? Another Gravity Hammer. AHHHH YEAHHH!!! Grifball diorama here I come!!!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

All in all, this is a very good line up for series 9. Excellent army builders in the Brute, Grunt, and Crawler. A welcome return of the Flame Marine. We get three Spartans. And the gem in the series to me, the Active Camo Skirmisher!<\/p>\n

Great selection Mega!!!!<\/p>\n
