Hey everyone, I am super happy to show everyone the new halo universe blind bag figures, and some other stuff.
This series of figures is amazing! Includes a variety of figures from different games in the franchise and a few brand new molds. First we have the Halo Infinite Purple Gummy Aster, at least I think it’s Zvesda. There’s a Halo CE Mark V. A remake of the old Halo 2 Marines seen in the shadow convoy set and others. A new Yellow Banished Elite, which is a recolor of an older blind bag figure. A new articulation Halo 2 Brute, which is amazing as it has new molds and it’s in new articulation. Finally a Halo 2 Grunt Ultra, in nice white armor.
This series also comes with a huge variety of weapons, from new UNSC additions to old Covenant tech. With the Aster we have a VK78 Comando, brand new and set to come in the gungoose gambit set and the new squad pack set to release next year. The Mark V comes with a standard silver M6D Magnum. The Halo 2 Marine on the other hand comes with a SPNKR rocket launcher. The Banished Elite comes with a Carbine. The Brute comes with the fast firing Brute Plasma Rifle. Last but not least the Grunt Ultra comes with a purple Covenant Needler.
I have had a few QC issues like the elites helmets peg not being cut short enough and the brutes waist piece not fitting into his torso. So look out for that, I was able to fix the helmet by cutting it down and the brutes waist by replacing it with a cod one that was the exact same color.
The other stuff…
This is quite sad. I got super lucky today to find these at my local target. When I walked down the isle I was super surprised to see a box overflowing with the bags. I quickly opened the codes and grabbed one of each. After I went to look at the world of Halo and Jazwares section, it was about 2 minutes. I went back to the mega construx section and the entire box of figures was gone. A scalper grabbed the whole box to resell online. I know this isn’t Mega’s fault, and they can’t really do anything to fix it. But it’s just super sad to see people buy the things we love just to resell it at a higher value. About 3 hours after that I checked eBay to see if they had put them up and I saw the figures being sold for 20$+.
I don’t really have much to say after that, but please don’t buy from scalpers online. That’s the way they thrive and they won’t stop unless we stop purchasing from them. Give it a little while and I’m sure it will be like series 3, they’ll start showing up everywhere in large amounts and we can buy for retail price.
Thank you for reading all the way till the end, and I hope you have a good day
