The next preview is an UNSC Spartan Armor pack. I’m a bit partial to this one as it’s similar colors to my favorite sports teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This set includes 2 Spartans and a Banished Warrior. The Spartans are HIGHLY customizable, with 30 accessories to share between them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you can see in the above pic, there is a Banished crate as well.
One thing I’m happy the Mega is doing more of is including the muzzle flashes for guns. This adds a depth of realism to the figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Let’s take a look at those included accessories!
There are two extra front torso armor pieces and one each extra back armor. With what we already have to choose from, this is a fantastic amount of torso armor customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the next bubble of accessories, there are weapons and armor. Looks to be two sets each of shoulder armor, the backplates as mentioned before and a couple of weapons. The pistol, seen in the Halo Heroes 12 series is back again. Note it’s ammo drum is removable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The next bubble includes 4 helmets. Beyond the Grenadier and Recon displayed on the figures, we also get an Operator, EVA, Gungnir and Commando helmets. Really a good selection here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And finally the last bubble has a few grenades, pistols and various muzzle flashes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This set retails for $15. At first I thought that might be too high. But when you look at the amount of accessories and the added figure, I think we’re getting a good value. I can’t wait to get this one in hand! I’m probably going to buy several this set so I can make several armor customizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
