Since the old one capped and fell off the board.
Any good Christmas hauls? I got the Spade, Humvee, Zombies Nuketown and Covenant Watchtower, payday this week too and there's a few sets I've been eying.
Which Humvee? The tan one or the green one? I have the tan one and I've been eyeing the green one.
Also, I got the technodrome, a destiny armory set and the captn reyes figure.
>>6092269
I had the tan one already, have to say I'm liking the green one even more, I almost want to get a second one and switch out the TOW for an MG. Priorities though, want that Bradley and perhaps the Apache first.
>>6092402
The bradley is definately better thsn either humvee, by far. It does not look so out of scale either. How well does the new spade fit with the cod figures?
>>6092412
I haven't built it yet but it looks to be about the same as the older Spades, a CoD fig looks oversized in them.

Is this a dead toyline?
>>6093613
It depends. I'm in Mexico, and while I see sets in stores that haven't reached some parts of usa, I see far newer and impossible to get in Mexico sets in Texas. We never got terminator, classics tmnt, star trek and almost nothing of destiny.
>>6093741
Liverpool have most of the destiny sets and the space ship from star trek.
>>6093741
The Call of Duty Legends seems to be exclusive to US, the rest can be found in any Walmart or toy store here in Mexico.
Are the Terminator sets worth anything?
>>6096135
What do you mean worth? If you mean if their aftermarket value has increased, then no, they are pretty cheap. If you mean worth to have, I'd say yes, they're pretty neat and cheap. Jusrt be aware they're halo size.
Does anyone remember the aircraft carrier posted in one of the previous generals? The one that looked absolutely massive? Trying to search for the brand online but all I'm seeing is small ships or actual customs.

Any good places to buy bricks or diorama pieces for cheap? Looking to build an urban environment for the CoD minifigs but I think I'll save more making my own buildings instead of buying megabloks sets in bulk.
I love this movie, and this set is pretty cool. It almost has enough votes to be considered for official release.
https://ideas.lego.com/projects/158671
>>6097129
Nifty set, but the combination of licensed plus being so damn big is a automatic no.
Does anybody have the Titanfall knex sets?
How are they?
>>6098256
apparently shitty quality
>>6098256
I remember some guy painting it up in one of the old 1/18 generals. Seemed like a relatively cheap mech for 1/18 figures.
>>6098256
I have this guy. Got him on sale for $10 usd. I would't recommend them at all, even for that price. They are absolute shit, wobbly as hell, the joints are really loose, can't hold his gun, leg articulation is a joke and the pieces fall apart without even touching them. Check jangs review. I thought all his comments were exageration, but these things are pretty terrible unless some heavy modding is done.
Personally, I'm waiting on the mcfarlane titans, they should be way better, even if they are just sculptures.>>6098262
>>6098408
Fuck, forgot pic.
I wish MB made Beyond Earth stuff. They could release "Affinity Progress" packs instead of troop packs.
>>6097129
I don't like the face, he looks too angry. Though an angry/battle ready Iron Giant would also be really cool. Mega Bloks needs to do a series of iconic figures. Iron Giant in particular needs an official release. I'd buy at least one just because there are no good/reasonably priced models of any kind.
Would also like to see an Alien dropship

anyone found the Halo Challenger bags, or new Destiny sparrows with heavy enemies?

Kinda got upset as fuck about that. Thankfully ebay helped.
New sets
>>6099536
I dound some of the Challenger series and an empty box of Halo Heroes series 3 at the Factoria Wal-Mart in Bellevue, Washington a few days ago.
In an alternate universe MB was successful overseas and by now we would be getting well articulated micro figures of Kamen Rider, Super Sentai, their villains, and various popular anime characters.
Been reading Halo Fractures, the short story Shadow of Intent in particular and now I really want a fig of Stolt, the most badass Unggoy ever.
https://www.halopedia.org/Stolt
I still haven't seen the two new Destiny Armory packs (The Titan and the Warlock) sets, or the Hive set in stores yet.
Off course, TRU increased their prices even more right before Christmas. Now all their Destiny sets are about 20%~30% over MSRP.
Good job, you TRU fucknuggets.
>>6100990
Weapons are BrickArms, hats are BrickForge, flag is Cape Madness.
>>6100703
I was bummed out that by the time I had money to spend TRU was mostly out of stock, went there yesterday while things were still on sale and they had barely any Halo or CoD. I did at least get the Kodiak for 1/2 price and the Bradley for something like 30% off so there was that at least.
Almost seemed like TRU was looking to clear all MB except the TMNT stuff, though the latter is on sale there almost every other week. TRU Canada's website had very little left too, I hope this is just a temporary thing, aside from unreliable Walmarts there aren't many places round here to get MB after Target quit.
Great news to start the year.

The destiny dude was more expensive than the Sharon Carter Marvel Legends figure.
In case anyone wants one (or extras) of the Destiny Sparrows with the Fallen they are just over $6 on amazon and seem to be falling in price every day.
>>6117773
Let me know when the Sparrow sets with the Cabal are 6 bucks and falling. Then I'll care.

I replied to you last time you posted this but the thread died almost immediately after. where did you buy it and how would i find it, and do they have other tanks? i would love a panzer IV or stug 3
>>6119684
>where did you buy it
Ebay. They seem to sell direct form their site also. I saw some in person at The Tank Museum too.
http://cobi.pl/en/toys/
and do they have other tanks?>
yes, including Panzer 1/2/3/4/5/6 and Stug 3/4's
>>6119924
awesome thanks for the reply mate. didn't think they would have so many different tanks, its awesome. now i just need some tiny schoolgirls and i will have my GUP blocks
>saw some in person at The Tank Museum too.
Yeah they are damn impressive in person thats for sure.
>>6121138
I love shilling for these tanks. The minifigs are pretty horrid, but do come with thompsons, mg-42's and so on.
Quality of the build is on-par with Lego, easily.
>>6092226
i got both crates of cod mb today
>>6121591
They look like good sets, more expensive than i would have thought (and hoped), $60 australian once shipped for a panzer IV (or $100 from cobi themselves), thats basically lego price for the amount of blocks, do you know if anywhere has them cheaper, i couldnt find them on aliexpress.
Though i did find this, it kinda looks like cobi from some of the pics and the figures but its twice as big, anyone seen/ bought it before. $50 AUD including postage for a 1200 piece set sounds pretty great.
>>6122895
Ah, shit sucks - I didn't consider how expensive it would be to ship to AUS.
I'm in Scotland, so the prices are really decent compared to lego for me.
before you say it its because I have no room. I'm still in the process of putting up the death star and the forward unto dawn.
>>6123769
Hey I just built that Covenant watchtower, it's a fun little set and way more durable than the older ones.
One of these days I want to set up a Covenant firebase. I've got the Tyrant AA gun, three watchtowers, plenty of Shade turrets of all flavours, a pair of Phantoms and just about every vehicle you can think of. Might try and moc a gravlift platform too.
>>6124043

So apparently Lepin is ripping off lego ideas sets that didn't make the cut. Anyone here get one?
>>6123607
I really like the look of them so i will keep an eye on them and maybe get a couple next time ebay has one of their 20% coupon codes
>>6124731
there's been some outcry from MOCers who had their designs appropriated, and cuusoo/ideas entries that didn't make the cut.
I'm not opposed to getting a good one, but it is shittier behavior than just KOing Lego products
got luck today
>>6126116
Yeah it's shitty for the creators, but communists gonna communist. Besides, this is probably the only way for huge ideas sets to actually reach a wider market, no way is Lego gonna release a 7000 piece ideas set.
I guess it's too bad they won't see any of the profits.

Nice to see someone remembered my post in the 1/18th thread! And yes you are correct, the atlas titan is pretty bad straight out of the box. But after some basic spray panting the guy starts to show some eye candy. But it's also true about the shit articulation, basically all you can do is pose him and live him in that pose which is fine for me but I guess would not be enough for some who likes to constantly fiddle around
>>6109485
You should be good with Decool. They have good quality plastic and bricks. Would place it at the top shelf of the knockoff brands, beside Shen Yuan
What new mega bloks sets are coming out this year?
>>6132371
You should ask in MB general >>6097426.
This place seems deserted.
>>6132840
Not that non, but having a separate Mega Bloks general is retarded and I can't believe some anon was so triggered by having to occasionally see Lego bootlegs that he split off
>>6124731
$270 for the building on the right is expensive for a ko
Finally got bootleg Gwenpool by Decool.
The minifig comes already fully assembled inside the bag, unlike the usual chink bootleg minifigs with unassembled limbs.
My main complaints are two noticeable flaws:
- one mismolded accessory; instead of two identical katanas, I got a shorter sword but eh, I can say it's a wakizashi or replace it,
- one chipped white spot right inside the mouth.
Other than that I'm surprised by the improvement of the chinese ripoffs minifig print quality. It's printed in the front, back and sides of the legs, arms and torso. It uses a curved female torso like the custom Arealight torsos.
I'm used to it but you can notice small smudges and little molding seams.
It costs next to nothing so I recommend if you want her and can get it for cheap I would suggest getting two so you can exchange parts if needed.
Heh, I came across an Ausini set the other day with a minifig that reminds me of Malcolm from Unreal Tournament.
>>6133474
I guess that face spot is a problem with most of them because mine has the same thing. I agree with everything else you've said, easily one of my favorite bootlegs next to Galactus

I still haven't seen the new damn Destiny Armory packs in stores yet.
The new sets sound great, though. Glad we're actually finally getting some of the named NPC characters.
Also, getting a Zavala takes us one step closer to my hope of us getting a Jovian Guard Titan.

As does Spartanbloks.
>>6157881
It's because there are s lot of different codes depending of where you are, unlike lego.

I have that guy and the fire copter, fun little builds with silly microfigs.
Found these at Dollarama once, there were several others but I only had a few bucks on me. Quality is really good, I intended to go back and get as many as I could for that sweet army green but they've since vanished from the shelves, replaced by BanBao mini sets that are overpriced and not as good.

>I hate how the Challenger set is green. Like we didn't have enough green fucking guys
>>6158429
>I'm glad to have more green guys. Especially the green ODST with Mickey's backpack.
Indeed, it's better than getting a whole rainbow of figures in a single series.
Now any figure out of a particular series will blend with any other figure from that series, which is great for building cohesive units.
>>6158069
cool, thanks. I wonder why the switched from the NATO alphabet for Challenger Series
>>6157932
I bought a handful of those sets. Most of them are basically the same vehicle with cosmetic changes. That tank's turret doesn't turn due to the driver's placement. They're kind of fun in a "Mighty Micros" sort of way, I guess? In the end, I felt like my money would have been better spent on one single set with a larger parts inventory. The olive green color's nice, though.
>>6158129
I saw these being sold in a coin-op vending machine for fifty cents at the supermarket. Dropped three bucks and still only managed to get one set.

Did Mega blocks seriously never make firgures of the Heretics from Halo 2? what the f?
>>6162864
They've barely done Halo 2 sets at all, and belatedly at that. One figures pack with Tartarus and Brute Captains, the Shadow with Prophet Truth and Sergeant Johnson, a battlescape with Enforcer, Covenant Spectre, that's all really. Flood Invasion has an infected Ghost but there's also Tank Forms and an active-camo Flood, Halo 3 and CE respectively.
Halo Wars 2 is likely to take up the line for the next while but who knows, they're still making Reach stuff and this year is Halo 3's 10th anniversary so they might be doing something for that. I don't know about the Heretics though, it was a relatively minor subplot and MB sets as a whole have been strictly humans vs Covenant with some Flood and Prometheans (and a few Red vs Blue), even the Smuggler Intercept set only has a pair of UNSC figs, no actual smugglers. I'd love to see the Heretics get some representation but odds aren't in favor of it.
Can we post about the Power Rangers Mega-Construct line here?
I finally found a store in my area that sells them and I got a White Ranger from a blind bag.
>>6163131
So disappointing after all the well articulated stuff thats come out. Goldar is pure trash and Zedds not much better. I wonder what happened with this license. The last stuff I heard from MB was a few years ago and they implied it would come back with the new articulation.
>>6163159
Ugh, disappointing to hear that it doesn't get better. :/ At least the Destiny figs are cute too.
goddamnit, the stands on these things suck. The three studs in front are too far apart, and the middle studs are too close together. so you can't actually stand the figure on the stand

Stockman might get reported into mini Dr Mindbender for my eventual MB Joes though.

Yeah, it's from Destiny. There's also a black one that should arrive any day now. I love mixing figs in different sizes. The cooles part is they all have the same super articulation. Mega is really something else on their minifig area.
>>6169030
>KV-2
Is this normal version?
>>6169040
>Mega is really something else on their minifig area
They really are, man. They've basically made tiny GI Joe and love them for it. Halo and CoD saved MB and in turn they revolutionized minifigures imo. If they just had a ball jointed waist so that it could "crunch" some they would be 11/10. They can shoulder weapons, hold katanas two handed, do three-point crouches. It's crazy.
>>6169091

>>6170884
The neck piece comes off no problem, but I've also not seen the new TMNT so I have no real reason to look at him and say "that's a foot solider", it just reads standard tech ninja fare. And the red on his arms gives me just enough hint of the arashikage symbol.
>>6169091
>They've basically made tiny GI Joe
I never thought about it that way, but you're right.
Anyone else feel like it's too good to be true, or not destined to last?
>>6170940
If the Halo series comes to an end I doubt the line will outlive it for long without new things to make sets. CoD games are on the decline, MB would do well to try and get the Battlefield license, wouldn't even need to change much.
>>6170947
The turtles are apparently actually doing pretty well I've heard.
I really thought MB was doomed towards the end of the first series of halo sets / WoW, but they've clearly rallied and have no issue pumping out new sets.
The never will, but if they got the Joe / Transformers brick licenses I would go crazy. Can you imagine actual licensed Joe minifigs with Transformers brick vehicles? It would be awesome.
Really they just need to grab another successful license to keep the momentum going. Or go for a nostalgia grab to hook collectors. Aliens and Predators would be the absolute tits, too. Maybe a fantasy line or something. Oh! Game of Thrones! Man, if only that hadn't gone to McFarlane.
>>6170999
Transformers and Joe would be impossible, as hasbro actually inented those lines, there are no lincenses. Also, there are a lot of people who gets the figures without actually playing whatever bgame they're from. I know I've never played Halo, Destiny or CoD and have most of the sets. People in tmnt forums are loving the little dudes.
Hopefully the lines last years, because I'm loving it.
>>6171009
I know, but a boy can dream.
I have a shit ton of the CoD figures and have never touched the games, because I love GI Joes. And they actually scale decently well with many TFs already. Eventually I'm going to piece together some recognizable Joes and Cobras from them.
>>6171088
Well, that's the beauty of mega, you can pop and swap pieces with other lines.
Pic related is my Snake Eyes.
>>6171009
Hasbro holds onto that shit like there is no tomorrow.
Sure they run the Joes like a loss-leader but they sure as hell don't want anyone else making money off them.
I hope there are more CoD dudes. I woudl really like to see "bad guys" or a third party making accessories

I also kicked in on the civvies kickstarter that's up and probably will fall deep into Zombie Lab. My girlfriend is already accepting it without her usual resignation.
>>6171391
Apparently there's going to be a sub linevof acid rain with 2.5" figures an vehicles. If those scale with mega, I'm gonna go crazy.
>>6110325
i have 14 of these babies and counting, sure wish I could have bought them from Lego instead, but I guess they had their chance and decided they don't care what the customer wants!
>>6119924
seach cobi on amazon my friend
How
>>6172212
How what?
>>6172212
>tfw Megabloks has a better selection of TMNT figures, with more detail, accessories, and articulation than Playmates.
>>6172212
I really like the colors on this Mikey.
Also I pieced together a pretty sweet Stalker from a bag of loose figures I got at the comics store yesterday.
>>6172222
Where do I get leather jacket Mikey??
>>6172258
Nice.
Don't just stand there - come in.
>>6172277
SICK
>>6170940
>Anyone else feel like it's too good to be true, or not destined to last?
they've already done so many goddamn Halo dudes, if the line ends it wouldn't be the worst tragedy.
Unless it ends before they do the Heretics from Halo 2, that'd be bullshit
>>6155986
>METAL...GEAR...
>>6151564
Those would make perfect cyberpunk Yakuza/Zaibatsu/Syndicate enforcers.
I would be so fuckin happy if Mega Bloks was able to pull off a generic cyberpunk (inspired by GitS, Deus Ex, Johnny Mnemonic, Syndicate etc.) line.
>>6172212
I hope we get a mutating Splinter the future waves. The tecnodrome one needed sleeves and this could be a good chance to give him one.
I think I'm going to pick up the party wagon set since it's pretty cheap and would basically just leave me Splinter to get as far as minifigs are concerned.
Anyone have it? Worth it?
>>6173033
Just built mine over the weekend, i rly love Shredder btw. As for the wagon itself - only one part i got messed up on. One of the doors has a problem closing - it's the one with the gun attached to it.
Other then that - it took me a lil while to build - about three to four hours. I had to keep stopping due to me suddenly not seeing pieces - just my mind saying stop.
I also got it on sale - like 17 bucks - so i felt it was worth that change.
>>6173055
Nice. I'll probably pick it up then. Short of building a whole sewer having the party wagon seems like a good TMNT base.
>>6173033
>April has small tits and a man's face
>>6173057
Due to me having the party wagon and the Krang build - i now want to get the techno drome - but i'm not sure where the hell i would put it. Dreaming of that possible sewer play set makes me drool - but damn the size it would be.
>>6173061
Krang is fucking awesome for sure. Short of getting that one really expensive 3rd party figure, it's probably the best android body we'll get.
>>6173071
I just got the Krang Lab from the movie. I feel that krang works better than the fiant one. I know that set was based on a particular episode, but it's too big for me.
>>6173082
Ha, yep got that one too. I love MB's bigger figures like movie Krang and the Destiny guys. I actually like all the movie figures pretty well. The Shredder and Ralph that came in that set aren't bad at all.
>>6173099
Exactly! I love having all these figures in different sizes but the same type. I can't wait for the new Hunter and I've never even played Halo.
>>6170999
A new fantasy license is what I'm hoping for in the near future. The knights in the Assassin's Creed line were cool, but there weren't enough of them and the only real variation was color, and I was really looking forward to the Templars that were leaked, but those clearly didn't happen.
>>6173160
I mix and matched a bunch of AC stuff together, extra hoods and armor and such, to get a bit more variety with the knights. I am disappointed about those templars though.
Couldn't find this picture a little bit a go.
Anyway, I really appreciate mega blocks' general lack of studs on the outside of finished models. Lot of smooth pieces on the surface of most things.
>>6170999
IMO the best licences MB should try and grab are Aliens, Predators, and Titanfall (considering that they've already made some pretty cool mech sets)
I did actually speak to an MB employee at one of their convention stands over the summer, and they did say that MB was considering grabbing the licencing rights for Titanfall, but they didn't think it would sell well.
tl;dr:
MB might be doing titanfall
>>6173214
Well, it seems Titanfall 2 didn't sell so well.
I would love and buy every single one of their sets if they had the license, though, the k'neex sets are absolute shit.
The thing that drives me crazy is the lack of information from mega's side. There's almost no announcements. Hopefully they'll show something new at toyfair, unlike last year.
>>6173138
>Exactly! I love having all these figures in different sizes but the same type. I can't wait for the new Hunter and I've never even played Halo.
Oh fuck we're getting a new Hunter?
Fucking Noice!
>>6173214
It's giant robots. I feel like it would sell based on that concept alone. I do wonder, since mcfsrlsne has the toy license and they do brick based stuff, if they have the construction toy license.
Are the most recent Halo figured the same size as Cod or are they still smaller?
What about the Marvel figures, how do they size up?
>>6173402
They are slightly smaller. So it looks like the difference between a 6 foot tall guy and someone who's like 5'6" to 5'8".
>>6173402
Still smaller.
Halo, CoD, Destiny, Halo.
I don't have any marvel figs, but they're the same size as the old Halo, meaning just a bit smaller than current Halo.
>>6172258
Get out of here STALKER.
>>6173214
I don't know if they would even be able to do Alien and Predator stuff, since Minimates does those at roughly the same scale.
And from the sound of it, the K'nex Titanfall stuff bombed. Hard. Hard to tell if it was because it was Titanfall, or because it was K'nex....Or both.
>>6173832
Nah, there's TMNT minimates and TMNT Mega Bloks, so I think they could do it.
I bought the big green K'nex Titanfall thing at Ollies for like $10. Never played the game but someday I'll use the mech parts for something.
>>6173818
>>6173563
Interesting. It looks like most of the height loss is in the legs. Would some of the Halo armor still be able to fit? Mostly look at chest pieces... I guess I could just go buy a set and find out.
>>6173858
Spartan armor attaches via clips in the sides of the abdomen, so no. ODST armor will fit, but it tends to look a little odd, and it blocks the back hole.
>>6168939
How's the cannon holding on Chaffee? The Panther one is totally fucked up.
>>6173858
>Nah, there's TMNT minimates and TMNT Mega Bloks, so I think they could do it.
Yeah but MInimates gets around on their TMNT minimates by making them "keychains." The Aliens and Predator probably has a separate deal than TMNT since they don't have those keychains around their necks.
I thought that they could do Voltron but then again they have Power Rangers and they fucked that license up for some reason.
>>6173884
Are they really all keychains? Ive seen them in stores, but I never noticed that.
>>6173905
Oh, found some pictures. That's pretty funny. And clever.
>>6173082
They could just tweak the movie one just a bit and it would work as a toon Krang. Maybe in a future set, like the technodrome transport Shreddar and his goons used all the time.
>>6173884
>I thought that they could do Voltron but then again they have Power Rangers and they fucked that license up for some reason.
There seriously had to be a different team in charge of the Power Rangers line than the people behind TMNT/CoD/Halo. This is kind of atrocious.
If they had used the articulated bodies and actually put some effort into the models, I would have been all over this line.
>>6173884
And mega is doing Aliens Kubros, with an alien and riplley. Who knows if that includes license for brick based stuff.
>>6173920
The Power Rangers stuff has a younger target audience, the Halo style articulated figures are probably too delicate
How have I never seen this set before?
I missed the first set of arctic guys, but this one is way better.
And that beanie-capped guy will be perfect for Shipwreck.
>>6173952
Yeah but even the Half Shell Heroes have sculpted heads for figures like Tigerclaw. Goldar is just a head shaped blob with his face painted on it. I don't even know what the fuck is going on with Alpha 5. I'm still hoping for something from Toy Fair for the license.
What would be the best sets for the pieces i'd need to make my own Jun? I haven't been able to find any so far, and i'm not paying for the real one lol
>>6173830
What head is that with the silver face shield?
Looks great for like a generic Viper trooper.
>>6174184
Why did you never buy the set?
It hit like $80 and lower clearance a lot.
Maybe hope they do a Noble Team set the way they did Osiris and Bravo?
>>6174207
I just got into MB last year dude
>>6174190
I thought it was one of the generic movie foot clan figures, but those have red visors. I have no idea, anon. That's weird. I mean, it's clearly the juggernaut head mold, but I don't remember where this version of it comes from.
>>6174288
It's from the covert ops unit.
>>6174184
How much is Jun going for anyway?
>>6174184
outlands skirmish set has everything except the helmet
>>6173830
That fucking checkpoint. They just sit there and let the dogs get you.
>>6174318
thanks hombre
>>6173958
kek'd hard
>alpha 5
yeah my thoughts exactly
they didnt even try
>>6174305
Jun(and Carter) only comes as part of the unsc set which goes for around $435 these days
>>6175097
*unsc elephant set
>>6175097
There's an active camo Carter in Foxtrot Series as well.
>>6175207
Oh yeah i have that one i didn't think it counted. It's rad though
>>6175213
https://www.megaconstrux.com/en-us/worlds/halo/figures/unsc-spartan-carter
I hope they re-release him and Jun sometime, I missed out on that second Elephant for financial reasons, while it's not a grail or anything for me it'd be nice to have all of Noble Team. I have both versions of Jorge, AC Carter, Noble-Six, Emile and first version of Kat, just need Jun.
>>6173905
Has anyone else noticed that Mega is basically doing all the same figs that Minimates did?
>>6175681
Yeah but most characters are no brainers. I don't think there's a fugitoid in the MB line or a Tigerclaw in the minimate line.
I looked over at the Acid World post since someone mentioned their 2.5 in line That mech is super sweet though the figure is just alright, imo.
We get Pokemon sets!!!!!!! Mega Bloks! Construx!
>>6175714
???
>>6175765
Ah, well hopefully they're not like the old pokemon sets.
>>6175891
>bootleggers make toys that Lego refuses to produce
beats those mediocre $30 fan-made ones I won't touch because fuck paying $30 for homemade figs
>>6175903
God bless those crazy bootleggers. I can get the whole wave of new blind bag batman figures for like $10.
Not to mention all the crazy things they make they lego would/could never touch.
>>6175765
Any idea if there was a picture for Charizard? Or was that Amazon link blank before getting pulled down? The idea of articulated Pokemon in any form is appealing me, and if they look good I might have to go near all in. Hopefully they're to scale too. Some smaller Pokemon like Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan would be pretty cool as minifigures too.
New pics
>>6175995
Gijoe2017 looks awesome
>>6175995
How much are these?
I hope they put out more single figures like the guy from Infinite Warfare.
And come on now let's get the Nostromo crew so we can have female characters.
>>6176001
And there's my Snowjob head. Nice.
>>6176006
Blue cloth body for cobra troopers.
I know it might seem silly to go into these with rebuilding different characters in mind, but this is just great for me.
>>6176010
It's fucking great for everyone anon. I sent this pics to my wife and told her i want them all for christmas. I fell like a kid again. Jesus.
>>6175681
A lot of them, yeah. I don't mind it, though. MB's stylization is a lot better in my opinion.
>>6175912
Don't know exactly
Picked this set up after work just because I was feeling the Mega Blocks hype. Lot of great standard gear in olive drab and the set piece is pretty fun.
Although I was hoping by some chance to find either >>6173953 or >>6168850. I'll probably scope out some TRUs this weekend.
>>6176226
>>some folks are born made to wave the flag oh that red white and blue
Found a cool trick, the Lego capes actually work really well with MB minifigs, now I've just got to get a red one and cut the edges of it so it looks ragged from battle
>>6176374
Nice. I've beer looking for capes and hoods for mega figures.
This Destiny guy has a cool cape, and the fabric seems in scale and flows nicely. I may go full sperg and take the cape to the fabric store, get something similar and start sewing little capes and shit for my toys.
>>6176389
Forgot pic.
>>6176389
Assassin's Creed has hoods.
>>6176398
Yeah, but I'd like to do something like this with cod or halo figs.
>>6176405
You know what else you could use is some of that terry cloth/micro fiber cloth for wiping screens. Since the weave is ultra small it should conform around the contours of the figure really well. Just cut it out in the design of the Lego cape so it can fit around the neck peg. I'll cut this one in a minute and get back to you on how it works out
>>6176436
Pic related
>>6176436
>>6176438
Ok so it worked pretty well ut the edges are kinda rough, so i gues it would depnd on whether you're looking for a more raggedy look
>>6176457
Maybe get like one of those electric exacto blades? That way it would cut and melt the edges and prevent fraying?
>>6176457
That actually looks like it does the job. I'll get some microfiber tomorrow and try to do something. Thanks anon!
did they make figures of all the ODST characters?
>>6176959
Technically yes, officially we're still missing Dare. One of the original Drop Pod sets featured a Recon ODST which was essentially Dare, had a really limited release.
For the rest:
>Buck in Heroes Series 1
>Rookie with Wombat set
>Dutch in ODST troop pack
>Mickey in NMPD Pelican set
>Romeo in Heroes Series 2
I hope we get a Dare down the road, and a re-release of Mickey in a smaller set.
>>6176973
I'm 99.9% certain i saw photos that there is a dare figure coming out soon, could've even been earlier in this thread or a past thread
>>6175891
> Tom Baker
Woah, now you have my attention, lets just hope they don't fuck up the faceprinting.
>>6176959
>>6177231
Series 4 I believe.
>>6179423
Yeah thats right, i think there were close up pics of each one too.
>>6179584
The mega construx/bloks general that had them should stil be in the archive.
>>6179423
found it elsewhere
neat
I hope that Mega Construx will reveal The Pokemon sets at New York Toy Fair this week.I'm happy that they have returned.
Also,I hope that Hasbro will reveal the Kre-o TRANSFORMERS The Last Knight sets.
Oh,did you guys see?
Kre-o is back,they launched this month Trolls sets,they are very cute!
>>6183827
>More Kreon Transformers to collect.
pls no. I need to save money
>>6183827
>Kre-o Transformers is back...with Trolls sets.
Hell yeah!
