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.<\/p>\n<p>These retail for around $3-3.50 US depending on where you get them from.<\/p>\n<p>Series 6 has now been revealed, take a look:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4732\" title=\"halo_figurines_series_6\" src=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6.jpg 700w, https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6_2-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4733\" title=\"halo_figurines_series_6_2-1\" src=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6_2-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"700\" srcset=\"https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6_2-1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6_2-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/halofanforlife.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/11\/halo_figurines_series_6_2-1-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>For this series we get:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grunt:<\/strong> Okay, this is essentially the same as the one we got in series 5. I&#8217;m not complaining though. I LOVE building up small armies of the little guys.<br \/>\n<strong>Purple EOD Spartan:<\/strong> I like the armor, and the color is fantastic. I&#8217;m not normally a purple person, but for these minifigs it&#8217;s a good color.<br \/>\n<strong>Yellow Mark V [b] Spartan:<\/strong> 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.<br \/>\n<strong>Tan Marine w\/masked face:<\/strong> Again, another good army builder. With the recent tan armory sets released, this minifig will help to augment those troops.<br \/>\n<strong>Jackal:<\/strong> WHOLLY MOLY! I&#8217;m SO glad and excited this minifig is being made available. I&#8217;ve wanted to build up a small army of these for awhile. I may ask for your help in finding this one folks. I&#8217;m trying to build up an army of 30. I already have 10 from previous sets&#8230;<br \/>\n<strong>Cyan Elite (yes, cyan, not blue):<\/strong> Again, a good color and sought after by Halo Mega Bloks collectors. Nice to have elites to build up too.<br \/>\n<strong>Stealth EVA:<\/strong> OMG, this is one I&#8217;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!<br \/>\n<strong>Crimson &#8220;Not-Jorge&#8221; Spartan:<\/strong> Previously available as &#8220;Not-Jorge&#8221; in the Spade vs Skirmisher set and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.toysrus.com\/product\/index.jsp?productId=13173986\">Flood Siege<\/a> set as the stealth color, the Crimson version is a VERY welcome redux. I&#8217;m a fan of the color anyway, so this is a no-brainer pick up for me.<\/p>\n<p>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 &#8220;smoke&#8221; spartans in the series, though not pictured on the packaging.<\/p>\n<p>Rumor has it there will be a <strong>translucent Purple Elite<\/strong>&#8230; I LOVE translucent toys. Just seeing how the are made and come together is something I&#8217;ve always found VERY cool.<\/p>\n<p>Are you a Halo Mega Bloks fan?<\/p>\n<p>-Sal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As some of you know I LOVE collecting Halo toys.
