LETS GOOO
Can you please advocate for Mega construx to restock heroes and Blind bags in Canada or at the very least Montana? I just checked the entire state of Montana and it's got nothing Halo mega construx related, the stores are the only way to obtain them and the stores Don't even have it, can you please voice my request to mega until we get decent stock once again? I shouldn't have to go out of canada to get Halo heroes or blind bags and if I have to then it should be possible to find them this is straight up unacceptable it's been this way for like 3 years and I've been putting plenty of money into Halo mega construx sets that do show up so it's not fair that we get so little.
after years of 0 blind bags in my area I have found some at Lucky's of all places.
How lucky
We can’t let it die
Yeah
We cannot let it die I got my first halo set when I was 6 years old it brings so much nostalgia to me seeing it again
I refuse to let my childhood die
Same
First time... unfortunately Halo Mega bloks has now gone to the void with the rest of the older mega bloks lines. (Their online sources are lost media)
All cruisers fire at will! Already signed it
It seems that now it is our turn to be the heroes, as a community our only option is to do things ourselves. Some people have saved (maybe not in the best conditions) but if they have the manuals as legible as possible, we could even make a community drive file with the manuals, and the missing information, after all, and for the luck of many, there are many videos and channels that have been dedicated to this. Let's hope that this is just a stumbling block, and if it is not.
"It will be time to put one block at a time". 💪
We can do it :3 💪
Beautiful message. The comments section of this video has really spurred me on
“Negative, I have the gun. Good luck sir”
Can’t wait for MEGA Fallout sets to happen but RIP Halo MEGA. One thing that I like that our Community is doing is that we have fan made websites to basically replace what MEGA used to have on there website. W Community W domain vid!
Bro, with fallout season 2 coming, it would save mega
@@YourWeeklyAnimation it would save a lot! I really want Fallout Enclave sets
Cheers pal really appreciate you!
Mega Fallout sets would literally save mega because even if you don’t like Fallout the amount of pieces you could get from the destruction of the builds could help build so many dioramas.
@@TonyTheTostone absolutely insanity if we get sets for dioramas because the leak was a red rocket gas station and it’s a pretty big set from the words and from what it looks like in game
I have some information that might help. I have a Google Drive full of PDF versions of most halo mega set instructions from 2009-2018. I also have set pictures of most sets from 2009-2022. If this would be of use let’s find a way to connect.
You should make a zip file and share it on the megabloks subreddit
Amazing! To share the resource please Dm me on Facebook: facebook.com/simon.key.58
Reached out
Gonna guess before I watch this this is about the site going down which was a massive archive for sets
You deserve a medal ;]
Really feeling like they're just letting things decline to the point of death. After Toys'R us went out and every other retailer (Target, Walmart, exc) figured out what was profitable they have just allowed themselves to be shut out. Heck, generic Chinese knock off sets are finding shelf space in the Lego isles. No - mega can't take on Lego (my opinion as a collector of both since Halo mega began), they're just too established. But that doesn't mean it can't still survive and thrive with themes Lego won't produce. Halo was great once, and it can still be great again. We need that archive, online shop directly from Mattel for ALL items, and a supply to meet real collectors and fans.
They should do fallout sets
Heartbreaking to hear, what makes it so much sadder is that 1. Halo itself is dying at a scary rate. 2. It’s an amazing idea of a toy that should not be facing the scarcity of demand. Same thing happened to both destiny and COD sadly. Pokémon is successful because the demand is their, no because the toys were good, but because kids were attracted to them. This community is literally all that’s saving halo mcx. I myself has felt less attraction to mega because I just don’t follow halo as a whole a lot. The past year, I’ve only bought 5 sets tops sadly, not because I can’t afford more, but because I just don’t want to. Halo reach, 2, and 3 are the games fans love the most. And fans loved the flood gate firefight, falcon sweep and other sets from those games. That could very well be the key to get mega out of the hole they’re in. Sadly, the hint demarcation media said about halo heroes being canceled might be true, the new wasp set was Amazing, and the paint apps of the figs were also amazing. Another thing to consider is that 3D printing is getting into its prime, some custom figures looks amazing and make megas oficial ones looks like bootlegs. Not saying it’s bad, but it’s something mega can looks at and get inspiration. 3d printing gives us infinite possibilities on what we can make and how we make them which is a thing that makes people choose them over official sets. Me included. Some of the biggest animators have used 3D printed part and they turned out amazing. Pokémon cards were revived by a Logan Paul, if something like that happened with mega, it could also get us out of that hole.I give all my respect for Simon right now for not only trying to save halo mcx, but a good product with an infinite potential. This community is also where I can escape to, where I got some good friends who I can connect to with this toys. Simon and this toy brand helped get me through some hard times, so it’s time that not only me, but all of us return that favor. This is not only a serious problem, but one that requires the community to step forward and unite
Heck yeah. I really appreciate this comment, thank you.
@@thedomainhalo of course man, the product means so much to me, I had to.
Maybe as a temporary solution we can dedicate a section of the discord to keeping an archive of each set we know the release date of I don’t know how many resources that would require just spitballing
Not a bad idea!
This would be so helpful
Discord is a bad idea because it can get wiped at any time, and isn't able to be indexed by google. A community dropbox or google drive with mirrors is safer.
title had me scared lmao
Fr
It's something to be seriously concerned about. No clickbait here.
I WONT LET HALO MEGA DIE!!! OOORAAHHH
OOOOORAHHHH
Oooh rah
As long as they make sets Halo will always get a set or 2.The key is to support other themes they come out with.
The recent leaving of Halo Mega products in stores has been breaking my heart, it really hurts to see something that has been such a positive aspect in my life since I started collecting in 2009 start to wane off is very sad. Thank you for keeping this community updated Simon, great to see that this community is still thriving every time I check back in, here is to hoping that Halo Mega makes a big comback.
Community is very strong!! We got this!!!
I’m so glad that somebody shares my opinion since nobody I know even knows halo well not even mentioning mega construx but finally some people know that this exists and it’s so cool to see this product but it sucks that I can’t find them in sorted anymore😢 but this is still super cool
Honestly, I think it's shocking that they (Mega, Mattel, whoever), deleted 15 years of history. Even worse that the brand is still active - the blogs that still exist, or eBay listings, will not last forever. It's a slap in the face to long time collectors, and a simple website to catalogue products is not beyond the financial capacity of Mattel.
I agree that there is no real justification for closing down such a legacy website.
I feel the exact same way you do, I have also been collecting since the beginning and it is so sad to see everything disappear online. This is mine and so many other people's childhood and great memories, so I'm so very glad that there are people like you who are taking a stand to save it all. You have my full support, and I hope that together we can bring back this information.
This is how it might go out. Not with a bang… but with a whimper. WE CAN’T LET IT! *DON’T LET THE FLAME DIE OUT*
The old (2010-2012) halo megabloks fourms were the first comunity i got involved in and felt a part of back when I was a kid.
I very much like that you're very quick to explain the title and discourage anyone lashing out at Mega. Very well said.
I'm also terribly sad that I just threw out all my instruction booklets last month to clear out space because the thought never occurred to me that the entire archive would be suddenly missing. Im shocked they never gave you any reason or anything either
I really wish they would've given us a heads up for the shutdown of these websites. The community would've GLADLY archived what they could if they were given a few weeks or so.
This is so sad. Always loved halo mega blocks.
This scared me so much and even after watching it I’m still shaky. We must NOT go silently into that good night!!!!
And we won’t. We will see this through to the very end
@@thedomainhalo Halo Mega has always been the one constant for me especially through the rough waters of life. It was my support when I felt ready to crumble. You have my unwavering determination as well as the whole of the Halo Mega community. May we *Never Forget* 🫡🫡
mega never dies. it's just missing in action😔😟
When you mentioned jazware it reminded me of the halo 2 odst figure i might never find and the belos spartan collection figure that completely went under the radar for me
Simon is locking in for this one! 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
You better believe it
Im ngl, Halo Mega at this point feels dead. Community wise not at all, but Im sure there are many others considering dropping the hobby because of how they handle their releases & distribution. There is no way to get your hands on the newest sets or certain heros series & blind bags unless you drop the bank on it. Their products are amazing, but they're also so slow to get these sets on the table for sale or widley avaliable. Idk anymore tbh, but Im not dropping the hobby just yet. I have a vast collection myself & I dont see myself selling it off anytime soon. I know Im coping but man I hope things turn for the better
I think it’s a bad move for anyone to drop the hobby. It’s hard out here but there’s every reason that it could get better
@thedomainhalo I think making sure the sets/figures we have now rather than focusing on developing any new future sets will be the best move to save mega construx because nobody is going to care about a product they can't get their hands on, if heroes and Blind bags get widely distributed that will go a long way towards making things right. The Falcon sweep and Drop pods should also return but the blind bags and heroes are the priority as it's more realistic to demand from Mega to fix their distribution in that specific aspect since they are still in production and the clock on that is ticking down everyday. It's been 3 years or longer since any heroes showed up, Mega should seriously Address everyone's concerns as soon as possible as the faster they do it the more Halo Mega fans are still around. I Don't want the brand dying but there's only one way to fix things and that's knowing what the plan now and ahead will be, saying ANYTHING now will go a long way towards fixing strain caused by not saying much over the past few years. We're past the point where we can afford to get a vague answer we need full clarity no matter how hard of a pill to swallow it may be. EDIT:It's worse than initially thought I just checked the entire state of Montana and Mega has let me down big time.
This is crazy, I remember back in 2009 - 2010 getting on the family PC to look at the mega bloks webpage and looking at all the new sets and seeing that reveal video from the Forward Unto Dawn, the 117th set. Such a shame to see it all lost to time.
I have quite a bit of Mega Bloks SDCC and NYCC exclusives still sealed, even the Pax warthog with chief and Arby is sealed still. Also kept the boxes of all the signiture series and even those smaller ones in the boxes that have the little details on them.
We, the fans can make sure it isn't lost.
Looks like the end for mega is coming sooner than i thought
We ain’t out yet
@@thedomainhalo don't worry I will still be here till the end of mega
Hey simon
I have an idea that could work. Looking at your most popular video, it is a lot of stop motion videos. I am planning to make some stop motion videos in the very future to catch peoples attention which you could also do. I think we need to catch a lot of attention to gain megas attention, so we can bring back lots of popularity to this toy to make changes to the company. To whoever reads this, join us to not let this industry die.
Stop motion is something I’ve always been passionate about! I’m hoping to run a mini contest soon
@@thedomainhalo I feel like you should try making some yourself again simon!

This cannot die
I really hope that the websites return in some way, im not entirely sure if they will bring them back or not but i can see how detrimental it can be for the brand if they dont have a single website.
I searched up the instructions for the AA gun vs Rocket hog set not too long ago and I easily found it
They need to return to stores
Need to keep it alive. One day Mega is going to wake up one day and say what in the world did we do? Such a fantastic brand with such great quality. Simon what do you need in terms of pic of unopened sets ?
Really appreciate that mate! DM me on Facebook to discuss next steps.
Would be cool to have nostalgia remakes for old fans wanting to recollect due to whatever reason of not having their original products
Lets start a community build website. like an mcx wiki
I still have a few of the older halo sets, and early I was unable to even find their manuals anywhere even before the megaconstrux site going offline.
*I have instruction manuals and other information for the old Promethean Combat Unit, UNSC Hornet Recon, and the old Anniversary Warthog Run sets!*
Even with higher powers at play. Mattel just handles everything so bad it's beyond laughable for multi-billion dollar company of there size and scale. There like this even with there original IPs like he man, wild stuff.
We need a gameplan to create our own archive. It's not only Halo that is gone now, its Need for Speed, Marvel, Assassin's Creed, etc. sets that are gone now. The BARE MINIMUM that MEGA should have done is warn us so that we could've begun the archiving process. I found a website called Bricker that has a lot of sets and I think someone could start there to start creating an archive of some sort. I hope that instructions can be preserved because that is my main concern!
Mattel may still have access to the old information. The website is shutdown, but they should still have access to it. Maybe they can combine all that info to their new website.
I’m sure they can make a big comeback..I hope
It's absolutely possible!
I have the old h4 cryo chamber I can contribute. Also have the h3 warthog run but that one is missing the top headlights
It’d be nice if I could even SEE them in my local stores….. I havnt seen them here in west Aus in YEARS
Dang man, if mega just made their own personal site (where everything is sold at distrubution price and all sets) and with release dates for their sets. At this point Mega doesnt even know when they're realeasing their sets.
I've been a long time collector since about 2011 and hearing about this is devastating. Years back, I remember thinking to myself that something like this could happen and began to download all the instruction pdfs starting with sets I own. I created a spreadsheets to keep track of MSRPs and the codes for the blind bags but stopped like two years ago. I remember at the time mega had their website for halo well organized with release years and factions. It made it extremely useful for organizing hauls/lots. It would be awesome to recreate that, I have some experience building websites and wouldn't mind helping out in that aspect. But I am concerned of getting a cease and desist letter from Mattel if this actually gets done.
Love the enthusiasm! If you have assets to sell please Dm me on Facebook: facebook.com/simon.key.58
I am not going to let Halo mega fall so who's with me to bring mega up to what it should have been
Send me out... with a bang.....
ANOTHER DAY! I AINT GOING DOWN NOW!!!
Should ask brick man 117 guy has a huge collection of retired sets
While I don't have a large amount of sealed sets what I do have is a huge amount of instruction manuals. Ranging from sets from 2009 all the way to the most recent releases. Blind bags, collector sets, waves, I have a huge amount of manuals for. If we could build a website or make servers with submissions for manuals and sets it'd be huge
Interesting! I’ve considered making video archives of old manuals. Scanning them all in can be a serious volume of work
TOGETHER WE RISE!!
(Prophet of regret) by the gods it is horrible. why would the gods end such a legacy (master chief) there is still Hope for mega to survive!

@@thedomainhalo well we are uncomfortablely close. So I have something that I may want to contribute to the community, if the trade deals I have up don't end up working about, I would absolutely love to donate or even do a trade of my HH Linda and my HH Kinsano
@@ReconProductions117I appreciate that but don’t worry, I have enough Halo heroes for myself. You keep what you have but it’s definitely the thought that counts!
@@thedomainhalo well do u know of any way that (in the event that I don't end up doing the trades) I could somehow contribute them to the community?
@@ReconProductions117only time will tell recon,only time will tell us its fait,really hope it doesn’t die out since I got my first halo set (which was a reach warthog set with two spartans,1 is an EVA in yellow armor and the second one also),it was given to me by my grandfather in America when he went back to the Philippines,I really hope mega doesn’t die out cause I still have like so many stuff to collect,to me its a childhood memory of me starting my great mega collection journey
Web scrape the wayback machine. Or see if mega will give you a backup of the site
I have every instruction to every set I bout, about a hundred instruction manuals
This makes me so sad. Halo Mega has been such an important part of my life... Probably more than I've really considered. I know franchises don't last forever but I never expected something like this from something that has such a large and active community. But we're behind you 100%. Let me know if theres anything I can do to help 💪
Much appreciated John!
Just in time for my lunch break
This really sucks, but there is a video by unfriendly porcupine showing all mega sets 2009-2021
Simon I know this is a shot in the dark but I really hope you can consult with mega about bringing back destiny sets I really enjoyed them and is this economy and my current money status I can’t afford the cool expensive sets so I really hope you can consider this. It would mean the world to me
:edit: simon do you have patreon? Ill support you financially even if its like $5 a month. I dont care about extra content i seek the same objective
We have to stop the firing of the halo rings
Bring back the falcon sweep!!!!
Hey Simon I’ve been struggling to find any halo mega lately. I live in the US and my Walmart and Target don’t sell them anymore. What should I do?
Anyone else here a stop motion maker
I don’t know how it works, but does the way back machine still work for mega bloks and the closed sites?
I primarily collect older sets, this is damned annoying.
Remember Halo
I don't usualy comment on youtube, but you are doing great videos everytime
Thank you so much!
I'd love for their MOTU and Monster High lines to make a comeback. Sadly it seems Mattel would rather cut back on Mega until the whole brand completely dies out. >.
Mega is getting a Monster High release this SDCC!
So Mattel is too cheap to keep the webpage going?
Gotta stop telling people not to complain or be annoyed with them. They won't change until you actually show them. I'm not talking about the designers but the corporate side, if you don't say why you hate what they are doing they'll just keep doing it. If people daily sent in complaints about not being able to check on older set info they're more inclined to do something. I'm not saying death threats or anything illegal but I wouldn't write an I ♡ you message right now.
I bet using the wayback machine would work to look at the archives
it works but it is pretty slow
It works but it is limited to what assets and links actually load
I have alot of older manuals and sealed sets

TELL ME YOYR JOKING
I haven't seen halo mega construx in stores at all where I live kinda sucks I love the company and I eventually wanna go back and buy all the sets I didn't have as a kid but I hope it doesn't go anywhere
Is there a way as a community we can create a archived website with what is left?
I'm really hoping so!
I have a question for anyone seeing this, after a long, long few months I have saved up 800 dollars for the falcon sweep. I just wanted to know if I should go ahead and buy it, or wait to see if it gets restocked.
Time to make a Halo Mega Wiki 😤
Is Mega open to giving us the hi res images to make our own wiki?
@@casualcarpenter We already have a Mega Wiki in development. I'm hoping Mega will release assets to us.
Domain, you can change the file of a image by replacing the ".webp" with a ".png" and it probably wont tamper with the file (even though it says it will). ive used this multiple times and the quality stays the same. hope this helps with your video thumbnail quality!
Very interesting cheers!
