First off, I just wanna say that this looks totally badass, and that you completely NAILED it!!! Absolutely wonderful job (as always!)!! Secondly, for other mech ideas, I really wanna see what you can do with a Falcon!
So, I decided to dust off the construx catalog of Halo sets out there, and I have a few ideas in mind: Forerunner mech - You may have to save this one for if we ever finally get a forerunner/flood war-based entry in the series, but it is a cool idea. So far I can find the 343 guilty spark set, and the phaeton gunship set, but that's kinda it... Elephant Mech - Uses the UNSC Elephant Sandnest set, could be even more bulky than the tank mech set, could be interesting to make the feet just be treads... Ghost Mech - Could be a cool deviation from the rules since there are not a lot of parts, but perhaps restrict it to an x-amount of ghost sets, your choice (Ghost of requiem seems to be the most recent set FYI) Chopper Mech - Same deal as the ghost mech, but really could lead into some sort of melee-oriented mech Pelican mech - IDK exactly how it would integrate well, but it is a big bird, and I want to see some wings! Frostraven mech - same deal as the pelican mech, but winter themed The Mammoth - Essentially the mech to end all mechs, this should ONLY be done to finish off the series, cause nothing will ever top it unless we get a larger (and incidentally more expensive) set Additionally, I just learned there were exosuit sets, so perhaps this could be a good way for smaller vehicles to have their time to shine, like the Mongoose, Wasp (or one of its siblings), or Cyclops (which honestly would be kinda badass to make an upgrade for) If you are fine with harming your collection's resale value, I also have a list of mech ideas for legacy sets: Shortsword Wolverine (just imagine the missile pods) (also there was an arctic model which looks really cool) Locust (more for the exosuit kind of stuff) Hawk Seraph (though this one might be a bust unless we get a new version considering the lackluster design) Vulture (again, go big or go home deal) NMPD Pelican Air Base (came out in 2015), prob expensive to get but could make for a cool police themed MOC, so long as you buy a customizer pack to act as a supplement just for the riot shields... Spirit Dropship (If you want a good purple covenant flying mech) Countdown (set ID 97017) this is a nutty idea for a set, BUT it is the ONLY space ship set ever made for Halo, and the extra parts could make for a cool display stand Additionally, there were brick built ODST mega figs back in '09, so maybe give them a try (also a brick built Arbiter Mega Fig in 2010) Finally, to close this out, pray for a flood set with a lot of flood features cause I want a flood themed mech!
Thanks for all of your suggestions, always appreciated. I’m particularly pleased with your suggestion about using the mech suits to replace the buildable Chief set to open up the door to some of the smaller sets. I’d really wanted to create some smaller mechs using the banished ghost, banshee and chopper but new there weren’t enough parts to warrant a full size Mech. Now you have planted the seed I will no doubt have a play around with the banished Mech suit to see what I can come up with, thank you. I also agree with most of your suggestions, the Frostraven and the countdown set are particularly appealing to me. You’re suggestion of using the scaffolding from the countdown set to house the mech created from the sabre is excellent. Thanks again 👍
@@brickman1175 No problem. I hope my comment was not too big, but it spiralled like crazy when I decided to pull up the full back catalog, so many amazing sets!
As an addendum, I was considering including the floodgate set here, but there just isn't enough yellow bricks for some sort of construction themed mech, perhaps Mega did some sort of CAT themed set you could harvest from as part of a joke video...
you know I saw this channel on the day of the scorpion and i loved it no matter what it looked like even after its slight changes i loved it you keep up your work bro you are getting better.
Thanks ebomb, glad you like it. It wasn’t going to be this soon but I had a few days off work so smashed it out in my down time. Very satisfying end result but took some work getting it there. Happy holidays to you too 🥳
can you make mechs based on the Elephant tank and the Mammoth apc, for extra carry weight capacity why not stack ball joints close to each other like a double knee joint like the lego star wars General Grievous as that set is massive but has some clever ways to manage its weight, or use lego shock absorbers and pistons on ball joints allowing them to move a bit and add detail
I would 100% buy the instructions for this. This might be one of the coolest custom builds I’ve seen to date. Edit: you’ve inspired me to make one of my own.🫡
This sone gundam shiii The fact that it almost seamlessly turns into a hunter is dope asf Maybe a wraith next? Or go ghost then revenant or the h2 one then wraith maybe a banshee too
Hey man i just started collecting megas and im absolutely loving your videos and i was wondering, could you make a video or share some tips here for newcomers to starts collecting without blowing their wallets into oblivion Lol. Thanks for the videos dude, the haul ones are my absolute favorites (and the pins of shame make them better ha!)
Thanks for the feedback, appreciated. I’m not sure it is possible to collect MEGA these days without destroying your wallet, mines been on life support for most of this year. I’ll give your video request some thought. 👍
This might not be a halo set but try combining the master chief mech with the payaken the tulkun & crab suit set witch this set from avatar does have a lot of pieces
No jokes about skipping leg day, it’s not his fault I ran out of parts.😂💪
honestly this seems pretty proportionate, like Prime
It's gud
This is great, and just as you've stated about not revising it, I don't see anything that could use any revisions. Outstanding work.
Imagine a forklift chief mech 🤯🤯🤯
Need thjs
YEAH
Why is this idea kinda the GOAT 😂 The only hero that can save us is forklift bumblebee and master chief prime
Noted 😂
i want to see that now
First off, I just wanna say that this looks totally badass, and that you completely NAILED it!!! Absolutely wonderful job (as always!)!!
Secondly, for other mech ideas, I really wanna see what you can do with a Falcon!
Thank you, I appreciate that. Noted on the Falcon, I’m sure I’ll tackle it at some point.
DUDE THIS THING LOOKS TERRIFYING TO FIGHT! THIS IS INSANEEEEE! ❤️
Like seriously as good as a scarab! Anyone else wanna see this in a battle diorama?
Thank you, I’m confident you’ll see it in a diorama in the New Year 👍
Dude this is incredible. Great job, seriously
Thank you 👍

If you are fine with harming your collection's resale value, I also have a list of mech ideas for legacy sets:
Shortsword
Wolverine (just imagine the missile pods) (also there was an arctic model which looks really cool)
Locust (more for the exosuit kind of stuff)
Hawk
Seraph (though this one might be a bust unless we get a new version considering the lackluster design)
Vulture (again, go big or go home deal)
NMPD Pelican Air Base (came out in 2015), prob expensive to get but could make for a cool police themed MOC, so long as you buy a customizer pack to act as a supplement just for the riot shields...
Spirit Dropship (If you want a good purple covenant flying mech)

looks great!! My favorite part is the spines on the back. Very cleverly designed!
Thank you, the spines worked out surprisingly effective given they’re clearly not spines. 👍
I would LOVE to see all the mechs side by side to see the hight comparison!
Shouldn’t be a problem 👍
I just had a thought. A fusion of the Chief figure set and a few Ghost sets to try and make a grunt.
Top idea 👍
Super awesome build!! Thanks for the epic vid, it was awesome!!!
Thank you, you’re welcome 👍
1:17 You know, there seems to be enough parts there to make the scorpion mech shield even bigger...
Congratulations you did it again you are the most talented MOC Creator for Mega Bloks in this planet💯💯💯
you know I saw this channel on the day of the scorpion and i loved it no matter what it looked like even after its slight changes i loved it you keep up your work bro you are getting better.
Thank you, appreciated 😁
Hell yeah this is beautiful... I wonder what could be next
It's so good Brickman! Phenomenal job my dude! 👍 I was not expecting it this soon but I won't complain! Happy holidays!
Thanks ebomb, glad you like it. It wasn’t going to be this soon but I had a few days off work so smashed it out in my down time. Very satisfying end result but took some work getting it there. Happy holidays to you too 🥳
This is amazing. Well done! 👏
THIS IS MY FAVORITE MECH NOW!
man i wish i was as good as this boy
Let's see what fire creation he has created
Halo players when they see the hunter phantom: THEY FLY NOW?!?!!?
Elites: THEY FLY NOW!!!!!
I want you to just go CRAZY just make a crazy mech no sets just random blocks PLEASE 🙏
One day I will, just not sure when.

All good suggestions, thank you 👍
your welcome
Looks like the Decepticon Helicopter and tank combined
Now combine them all...
Have you thought about crossing it with the Falcon Sweep?
Oh yes…
Mega need to make more sets like chief.
Yes they do, I’m running out of Chiefs 😂
I am blinded by its majesty
😵💫😵💫
Wow incredible
oh my god, this is the best mech
You could be right, turned out way better than expected.
Reminds me of Revenge of the Fallen Jetfire because of the slight crouch.
yes i have been waiting for something like this awesome work man
Enjoy!
I would 100% buy the instructions for this. This might be one of the coolest custom builds I’ve seen to date.
Edit: you’ve inspired me to make one of my own.🫡
Thanks, if I get time I will create build tutorials for all of the Mech builds, no promises as it takes a long time.
Oh and a scarab too
You forgot to compare it to the scorpion.
Going to create a size comparison video with all of the mechs. 👍
Love the halo wars 2 inspiration
I love it and it looks amaz
Alright brickman. you win this one... you should try and do a scarab. Legends (and physics) deem it impossible
😏
Ooooohh what about a mix of master chief mech + halo elephant vehicle
Hopefully one day! It would be a huge challenge but could look awesome.
Do a Promethean Knight version of a Promethean vehicle.
Cause' this is AMAZING
Maybe the Phaeton Gunship, not a huge piece count but a good variety. Could be worth a shot as I need a Mech to represent the forerunners.
@@brickman1175 ayyy, will be looking forward to it.
Awesome as always mate 👍🏻
pelican mech? would be cool.
On the list 👍
OMG! This is amazing!!’ 🎉🎉🎉
Would it be possible to make a combiner mecha?(Aka, a megazord)
Maybe one day.
Bro did the right arm dirty
😂
Great job ! looks incredible !!!!! :O
Thank you! Cheers!
This sone gundam shiii
The fact that it almost seamlessly turns into a hunter is dope asf
Maybe a wraith next? Or go ghost then revenant or the h2 one then wraith maybe a banshee too
Thanks, other mech builds available on the channel 👍

@@brickman1175 thank you!
Master chief + the scarab
Can you do a pelican build when you can please cause that would look interesting
I sure will at some point 😁
This might not be a halo set but try combining the master chief mech with the payaken the tulkun & crab suit set witch this set from avatar does have a lot of pieces
That would look great I’m sure but I don’t have any of those sets sadly.
An hunter mech
Looks like the fallen from transformers
I was wondering if you had a discord, also love your work keep it up :)
Thank you, no discord I’m afraid.
This is amazing
Luv it
Just subscribed
Welcome aboard 👍
Hey can you do a triple fusion pelican and spirit mech if there is one using all pieces?
Unlikely but nice idea.
Need a pelican mech
Yes we do…😁
Mega Stock after brickman buys his 1500th master chief statue
😂
brute scarab mech next?
No scarab in my collection I’m afraid so not possible at the moment.
darn, got the parts for a spirit jackal?@@brickman1175

Thank you 😁
Mammoth chief when?
No time soon I’m afraid 😵💫
THE KING OF THE HUNT

Hey, can you make a mahc that can transform?
Maybe one day.
