I Built One of the UNSC's Most Obscure Vehicles
Despite it barely being present in the halo games, I've always been a big fan of the F-99 Wombat in Halo 3 ODST. So given the fact that I've recently got into VTOL VR, I've really been inspired to tackle the UNSC's only fixed wing atmospheric Jet in brick form. This is part of the Ultimate Scale Series so has been built to as close to a 1:38 approximate minifigure scale as possible.
Unlike some of my other MOCS, this build is 100% Mega with no Lego pieces present. In this video I cover why I chose this vehicle, its features, design, drawbacks, and previous Mega sets. Thanks for watching!

I made the Halo "UCS" Pelican dropship MOC I always wanted
Переглядів 72 тис.3 місяці тому
I've always wanted to make a full sized "UCS" version of the Halo D77-TCI Pelican. It's actually a similar size to the Millennium falcon so I've always thought it could do with a similar "lego UCS" treatment that MEGA have never done. So that's what I've done. This is 99.9% Mega and 0.1% lego but what can I say? I use what I need to use to get it done! This video goes deep into every detail and...
The MOC That (Re)-Started it All.
Переглядів 6 тис.4 місяці тому
Whilst the Wraith is iconic in halo, it has been somewhat neglected by MEGA in recent years. In the last video of my "Preforged" series I'm covering the MOC that started it all. The Wraith from Halo 3 / Halo Reach. This is a look at some of the details and features of the first vehicle that brought me back to creating MOC's in the first place, before it gets scrapped and remade as a USS version...
MEGA may never build this Halo vehicle again, So I designed the ULTIMATE one instead.

The "Ultimate Scale Series" returns with a MEGA Halo M274 ULATV mongoose from Halo 3. It might be small, but this build still manages to pack in all the features and details that you would want from a Halo 3 Mongoose. It features poseable suspension arms, room for both a driver and passenger and a foldable rear bed, all whilst being as in game accurate as possible and to the correct scale (1/38...
Is this old Halo MOC still any good?
Переглядів 6 тис.4 місяці тому
I have always thought that the Covenant "Warthog" equivalents have always had a tough time in the Halo franchise. I personally think that the Revenant from Halo Reach is the best of these but has still never really stuck. This is the second part of of the "Preforged" series where I briefly look over a MEGA Bloks / MEGA Construx Covenant MOC that I built nearly 4 years ago. Sometime in the futur...
ULTIMATE M-12B Warthog MEGA Halo MOC
Переглядів 6 тис.6 місяців тому
I'm back with yet another Warthog. The M-12B (AKA 343 Warthog) Mega seems to think you can't get enough and I guess neither can I. Despite my dislike for a significant amount of pre 2020 343 era designs, I think they actually did a decent job with the Warthog, not as good as the OG, but still. It's just a shame that they essentially treat it as an upgrade / replacement rather than a different m...
Reviewing my old MEGA Halo Is'belox Banshee MOC
Переглядів 3,4 тис.6 місяців тому
This is the first of a short series where I'll review some of my old covenant MOC's to tide you all over before I start on building my "USS" covenant stuff. This starts with the Is'belox banshee (halo reach banshee). Whilst yes, it is old, I don't think it was a bad first attempt. With that said, there's definitely room for improvement in the future. Thanks for watching! Music credits go to Mar...
ULTIMATE M808C Scorpion MEGA Halo MOC
Переглядів 23 тис.7 місяців тому
I'm so excited to finally share this one!! The Scorpion is such a quintessential halo vehicle and I'm glad I now feel like I've done it justice in its brick form. This took almost 2 months on and off (mostly on) to get done and is the longest build I have shared so far. I've said most of what I want to say in the video, but ultimately, I don't see a reason why MEGA shouldn't consider ultra deta...
What is Ultimate Scale Series?
Переглядів 6 тис.7 місяців тому
For this video, I just wanted to go over why I call my Mocs Ultimate Scale Series and what I aim for when building them. This one was definitely a little bit different from the norm, but I'm happy to have learned a few new animation methods in the process of doing so. It is less than ideal that figures aren't properly scaled and personally, it really irks me that so few sets are appropriately s...
ULTIMATE UH-144 Falcon MEGA Halo MOC
Переглядів 28 тис.8 місяців тому
The Falcon is such an interesting vehicle that I felt that I just had to do it justice in block form. It has definitely taken a few attempts to get to this point, but carefully considering and then iterating on each design has turned out amazing results! It has to be one of my favourite Mocs that I've made to date, even if there are a few more improvements to be made. What do you think? Would y...
Modifying My MEGA Warthog MOC
Переглядів 11 тис.9 місяців тому
One of the fun things about having a MOC is being able to adapt it however you want! Designing this USS (Ultimate Scale Series) Warthog to be modular means that is pretty easy to swap parts out and change it up in various ways. So in this video, that's what I do! I swap out bunch of various modular components and explore a few of the ways that the warthog could be adapted. I'd love it MEGA coul...

Thanks for stopping by! So I first made this MOC approaching a year ago. This was really the first MOC I've made being able to properly use MEGA's "new" SNOT adapters. It's not perfect and definitely a little fragile as far as a the model goes, but I still think it looks pretty cool. Keep your eyes peeled as in a few months I'll likely redo it. As always, a like would be appreciated and sub for...

    I’ve been interested in the F-99 WOMBAT RECONNAISSANCE DRONE ever since first playing HALO 3 ODST when I was younger. When I first played SPACE ENGINEERS on XBOX years ago, I wanted to make HALO vehicles as I felt dissatisfied with the communities builds of certain UNSC ships and so I built my own Fully functional SAHARA CLASS PROWLER and having seen your video I now understand which block shapes I shall need in order to make your F-99 WOMBAT in SE

    That game actually does look pretty fun to fuck around with you mates in!! And great job with this vehicle, completely unexpected but totally loved and godddd those angles and shapes and highlights are hotttttt and I was NOT expecting landing gear but I’m sooo happy to see them!! I wonder if you could have used a free cam and gone out the map and paused the game to have a closer in-depth look at them/other vehicles of this less common cinematic nature Also when you eventually get to covie vehicles some of the ones I’d love to see initially would be the banshee, ghost or spectre aswell And if you’d like I’d be totally happy with the talky buts been in vr too it could kinda “give you a face/charecter” in a way :) (I love the talky explainy bits btw)

  • @Spartan_Tanner
    @Spartan_Tanner Місяць тому

    Fun fact: We've been able to find three models of the Wombat, two from ODST and one from a Reach Build. so as it turns out the aircraft carrier exists in ODSTEK aswell and its actually a bit more higher quality, it also has actual models for the crafts rather than 2d cutouts. In Reach the Drone Fighters were supposed to be actual vehicles that would assist the player as wingmen during the Sabre sections. They still work fully, just lacking the wingmen code.
