Well done on the supporting Mega situation, couldn't agree more. This wave proves that they listen to fans and have tried their best to interpret what we want, I'd say they did a good job.
@@DemarcationMedia ye, its honestly kinda disgusting, or maybe thats the wrong word, disrespectful. Mnr has made a plethora of good videos on the subject
I just got this set and this is THE best ghost I’ve ever had I have a few banished ghosts from Halo Infinite and a now disassembled ghost from like 2013 but in turns of figures great army builder and in terms of vehicle awesome work and as you’ve said in the Hove Exterminaters set “Mega is serious when they said EVERYTHING is on the table.” Or something like that but awsome set and talked a little about it on The Domain’s live stream so I figured it was a good time to build it and enjoyed “talking” with him in chat!
Glad to see you finally got the set! It is great overall but now I’m hyped that Amazon is finally getting prices down. Like the 20th anniversary thing, 53$ and the new scorpion tank only 90$. Do we have any idea though when hive exterminators is coming out though and red teams warthog? I wanna get them first
I picked up some of the new Halo Infinite blind bags earlier today and they all came preassembled (Except for the Sentinel build) all the figures came preassembled from the factory. I picked up the same new wave, 2 weeks ago from a different store and none of them came preassembled. Weird
huh, I like that they're now going out of their way to assemble the figures for you now. I always had trouble with them, they'd get loose or I feel like they'll break.
@@DemarcationMedia I guess I get it and if the majority of the population likes it this way, it makes sense for Mega to do this. It’s just as a blind collector, the figures are the only things I can actually build on my own, so I’ve always had a lot of fun building them.
Been a mega supporter since the halo mega figure came out😎 love everything they are doing! Just sucks because economy is busted which makes getting these harder and are a bit more pricey in more rural areas. If you live in a bigger city area it’s no problem really lol but I think some king mega should do (talking through experience) is have a place to buy singular parts or have a place to get replacements because I have an issue with my new honor guards having their hands break and I can’t get a replacement. Unless anyone knows a way to idk and it also seems difficult to get in touch with mega for help on these. But the ghost is utterly perfect! Absolutely buying it! Not the biggest fan of halo 4 style stuff but all is amazing and I’m so excited to get this set!
@@DemarcationMedia thanks man! I appreciate the response and help! Love all your videos! Keep up the MEGA awesome work! Lol sorry had to be that cringe guy😂
I know this is kind of random but I was just scrolling through your videos and came across the post from @noahtin and it put a big smile on my face. I always feel rejuvenated when I see people trying to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ in a very unique way and especially you trying to spread it to the mcx community! I find it such a blessing and am thankful for your content that you might reach people you would otherwise never know. God bless you brother!
I used to love megabloks halo stuff when I was young, saw this was 8 bucks on amazon(which is such a steal, think the original ghost was like 12 bucks and that was like 10 years ago+) also got some blind mystery packs. These toys are still fire
The only complain i have with this set is that the elites helmet hasnt got any silver painting apart from the blue colour, because all previous versions of the figure used to have this and i dont know why this one doesnt, otherwise great set and great review!
@@DemarcationMedia Such a bummer though. I need a timeline so I don't miss out. I also don't like buying anything at full price, but Mega seem fairly priced. If it wasn't for scalper, I would be far less worry.
Thanks for the review , I am looking forward to mine arriving even more now , the marines look great , we just need some more heads with hair on now , calling Gek Gek seems a little pointless but as you say it will be a good army builder . Old style box art for me was better , why do companies waste so much money on rebrands ? All they needed to do was remove 'construx' from under the 'Mega' keeping the orange logo the same . Buy hey , it is just a box and lucky enough I am not a NIB collector .
@@DemarcationMedia Yes , I was just thinking about the building and office signage cost etc too change , but I suppose with modern printers they do not have headed notepaper etc that is obsolete and they could offset cost against any company taxes due , I just like orange as a colour and feel they could have kept the logo as was and just deleted the construx , but I am a simple chap adverse to change :) and at the end of the day its the kits they produce that matter and not the packaging and I am not a NIB collector .
When I got this set, I had a problem with geks helmet not going into the peg hole without me really pushing hard on it as well as the helmet not sitting flush and having quite the gap, making it kinda look weird. Also, geks hands were REALLY tight and getting his energy sword in his hands was a struggle. Nonetheless, great set and I really do love the figures.
Amazing review! The ghost looks perfect I can't wait to army build it. The figures also look great but I'm not sure why the grunt doesn't have eye printing or why gek was in this set since he looks like a normal elite. But overall the set is definitely worth it and a step in the right direction. Also that fully shaven marine caught me off guard 😂
It kind of staggers its way out: this set is out now, the ODST pack is showing up slowly, the Tank is being shipped by Amazon but the Phantom and Elephant won't come for a bit
This ghost is easily, the best 15$ set vehicle. Also, I had the backwards legs on a marine. Least it's an easy fix. On the guns. They were always printed. Not sure how much that costs.
@@DemarcationMedia the rocket launcher, battle rifle and the grunt. Halo 4 uses the rocket launcher model from reach. The halo 4 battle rifle has a very blocky scope. If you were to look closely, you can see the face of the grunt is the H5 face.(H4 is more watch able than H5)
@adecepticonprotoform699 The only things in this set that are specifically 5 are the weapons. The grunt is using the Halo 5 mold, yes, but it is colored to match the Halo 4 grunts with the lighter skin tone. The ghost, marines, and elite are all very specifically based on Halo 4.
this whole set just gets worse and worse the more I look at it. at first I thought the covies were cool, but seeing them closer now, the unpainted grunt is just lazy cheaping out, the elite is missing those silver paint apps that all the other storm elites have, 100% would have traded the barley visible yellow lights for the silver bits, Marines oh god those Marines proved my argument that removable helmets were unnecessary and bad, I have a heavy dislike towards that style and this marine is just bad. I actually quite like the 343 Marines at least the original ones. these removable helmets are by definition don't fix what's not broken, there was nothing wrong with the old ones yet mega decided to make them uglier. same with the halo 3 marines I loved how the old style halo 3 marines looked but mega decided to ruin those too. the ghost is the only redeeming value of this set. this set made me stop collecting 4 of each vehicle plus 4 figure packs, hoping K11 or another Chinese eBay seller gets bulk old Marines, but for now K11 will be my way to get storm covies not this . new boxes don't work for me but not really a big deal since I don't keep but they are very unappealing to mez but that's 343s fault since they decided to redo the style guide and make things look worse, great review but extremely mediocre set maybe even bad

Looking forward for your new content :)
They're doing a better job listening to the fans than any of the other toy companies I've seen.
@@DemarcationMedia cough cough lego cough cough (im referring to their awful connections to fans)
@@sealco They certainly aren't nearly as close to the fanbase as Mega
@@DemarcationMedia ye, its honestly kinda disgusting, or maybe thats the wrong word, disrespectful. Mnr has made a plethora of good videos on the subject
These new universe sets are a breath of fresh air after a couple years of purely infinite stuff
As much as I've enjoyed the Infinite stuff, I have to agree
So cool to see Halo 4 Marines with removable helmets, just goes to show how far Mega has come, great video!
They really have come a long way!
LET’S SUPPORT MEGA
Awesome review brother.
100%!
It’s amazing how much they improved on the banished ghost, it kinda makes me want to mod my own banished ghost to look more like it.
The new Banished Ghost was both better and worse than the old one in some aspects
@@DemarcationMedia better? How so that thing was probably the worst ghost ever made by mega in recent years, no hyperbole
I just got this set and this is THE best ghost I’ve ever had I have a few banished ghosts from Halo Infinite and a now disassembled ghost from like 2013 but in turns of figures great army builder and in terms of vehicle awesome work and as you’ve said in the Hove Exterminaters set “Mega is serious when they said EVERYTHING is on the table.” Or something like that but awsome set and talked a little about it on The Domain’s live stream so I figured it was a good time to build it and enjoyed “talking” with him in chat!
I do agree, this is the best Ghost. I had an older one awhile back but this one is simply better
I actually have gec lar. From covenant lance pack from 2015. Haha. Awesome as always review, thanks for content.
Is that supposed to be Gek too?
@@DemarcationMedia no, its just similar figure.
i ordered this a couple weeks ago, can’t wait for it to arrive!
Nice!!
Glad to see you finally got the set! It is great overall but now I’m hyped that Amazon is finally getting prices down. Like the 20th anniversary thing, 53$ and the new scorpion tank only 90$. Do we have any idea though when hive exterminators is coming out though and red teams warthog? I wanna get them first
The Hive set is being spotted in Walmarts now actually. Not super regularly but the release is beginning
@@DemarcationMedia thank you for the info, I’m prob gonna wait till Amazon gets them or Walmart starts selling them online.
@@wollog2219 Keep your eyes peeled!

They won't break usually but DANG are they tough to assemble sometimes
If that’s gonna be permanent I think I’ll miss the numb finger tips in a weird way
its quite an oxymoron move. These are building bloc toys and by pre-assembling them, it takes away from the fun.
@@sightlessblood4860 Very few people enjoyed the figure assembling part

Best ghost ever, hands down
@@DemarcationMedia absolutely when can you play next
Possibly tomorrow, depending how busy I am. Video making comes before playing Halo usually
I want so many of this set it’s ridiculous!! Great review as always!!
Hopefully it'll be so widespread that army building will be easy!

Good point, the silver would have been nice
If you use triangle slope 1x1’s on the wing electricity parts maybe you can animate it better?
You mean the ones with the peg holes?
@@DemarcationMedia yes those but now thinking about it maybe you’d need a double sided stud 🤔
Hmmm possibly
Yooooo the is awesome I really want this!
Keep checking your Targets!
so when does the falcon and the ghost release in stores? i live in San jose Cali. my stores got nothing
Ghost is in Targets various places already. Falcon is in stores in Mexico but so far nobody has found it in stores here in the US
Ordered 4 of these!
Niiicceee!
This is a set I really want and hopefully I can find it near me.
Check Target shelves--apparently some Targets will have them on the shelves but the system will say there's none in stock
18:17 handles for the new ghost are not correct and they look bad
Those electric pieces were a good idea
they use the same handles for all the small vehicles and they're kind of annoying
I was wondering do Mega every let people know when a set is soon to be discontinued? I want to collect certain sets but not as off right now.
No, not really. The sets just kind of, vanish.
@@DemarcationMedia Thank you for answering. Very much appreciated!
@@DemarcationMedia Such a bummer though. I need a timeline so I don't miss out. I also don't like buying anything at full price, but Mega seem fairly priced. If it wasn't for scalper, I would be far less worry.
I ordered 2 of these but i agree with wanting at least 4. I got 4 recon getaways so maybe i'll get 2 more of these if they're ever on sale
Definitely worth getting 4 I'd say
I have the snow themed Halo 4 Marines I forgot what it said it was
Victor squad?
@@DemarcationMedia I think so all I remember is like a little snow base with a flag with four or five Marines
I can see a super good future for mega construx
If they can keep this up, yes!
Thanks for the review , I am looking forward to mine arriving even more now , the marines look great , we just need some more heads with hair on now , calling Gek Gek seems a little pointless but as you say it will be a good army builder . Old style box art for me was better , why do companies waste so much money on rebrands ? All they needed to do was remove 'construx' from under the 'Mega' keeping the orange logo the same . Buy hey , it is just a box and lucky enough I am not a NIB collector .
Well, if you think about it, the new box art will cost them less since they don't have to create unique landscape backgrounds for each set
@@DemarcationMedia Yes , I was just thinking about the building and office signage cost etc too change , but I suppose with modern printers they do not have headed notepaper etc that is obsolete and they could offset cost against any company taxes due , I just like orange as a colour and feel they could have kept the logo as was and just deleted the construx , but I am a simple chap adverse to change :) and at the end of the day its the kits they produce that matter and not the packaging and I am not a NIB collector .
@@chrispone1966 Yeah the orange was iconic, but it was also similar to Lego's red. But yeah, I don't keep boxes either so it's a minor thing overall

Also, geks hands were REALLY tight and getting his energy sword in his hands was a struggle. Nonetheless, great set and I really do love the figures.
Odd, I have 2 Geks and didn't have that issue. Bad run maybe?
@@DemarcationMedia that would be my guess. I think the peg hole might be a little too small seeing as it was hard to get the helmet in
I love this set so much definitely buying 4 of these!!😁😁
17:14 it’s treason then
OH I can't believe I didn't think of sith lightning with that piece
nice we get an Ezio head from assassin's creed
Oh yo that's an Ezio head? I didn't even notice. The old one has the big peg hole so an updated version is great
I absolutely love the halo 4 marine armor
It's underrated
I luckily enough got one early too
Nice!
Amazing review! The ghost looks perfect I can't wait to army build it. The figures also look great but I'm not sure why the grunt doesn't have eye printing or why gek was in this set since he looks like a normal elite. But overall the set is definitely worth it and a step in the right direction. Also that fully shaven marine caught me off guard 😂
Fully shaven marine caught me off guard when I first popped the helmet off too XD
I had to pay £24 for this set, and it’s coming in 2 days! Ik it’s a bit much, but as a British collector, it’s a “worthy” sacrifice.
That's honestly not too bad
Im almost upset w how many good things mega is making. I NEED IT ALL. XD
Haha I know right? It's getting hard to keep up
Funny how i don't like the in-game H4-5 marines, but the figures look good
I guess Mega did a good job then!
That’s horrible that the grunt doesn’t have a painted head, that’s one of the main reasons I wanted it!
I mean, a tiny dab of paint will fix it but yeah, it's kind of sad
Ik, but I don’t have a halo 4/5 grunt yet and I wanted the head it’s so coool
I want this set
It's worth it!
The rocket launcher don't belong in this set bcs its a halo 4 set and the rocket launcher is from halo 5
Mega doesn't care too much about getting the weapon eras right
Best ghost by far
100% agree
Sir you are trippin
The only thing this ghost has that others don’t are those electric pieces
My favorite ghost is probably the first banished one, if I had to choose a covenant one it’d be one of the pink ones
It would be cool if we could put the electricity from the bottom of the ghost, onto Halo Infinite shockrifles
I like how you could take off the marines helmets, cause maybe you could recreate Halo 4: Foward unto down
Dawn*
Ah yeah that would've been pretty cool
Is it out already?
Yes, in some places and slowly showing up more
Where can you find this??
Target mainly
Nice
Indeed
When dose this wave come out
It kind of staggers its way out: this set is out now, the ODST pack is showing up slowly, the Tank is being shipped by Amazon but the Phantom and Elephant won't come for a bit
@@DemarcationMedia so just like the last wave the sets are slowly coming out very slowly
@@mathewkariga8859 Yep, Mega doesn't have an official release date for things the way Lego does. Different system overall

Where did u get it?
Explained that in the video

Check your local Targets
why the hole?
On the front? It's because you can attach an armor plate there
I will get this wet somtime I can’t believe it’s out this soon I must get this
it's a must have for sure
Anyone else hate the new branding? Like the mega symbol specifically
This is a new set???
