Commanderbacara198 has posted a review of the Offworld Cyclops set.
I like how this cyclops is more of a construction unit then the past ones which looked like attack/war units. The welding torch tool, details, and coloring looks very cool which kind of gives off an Aliens vibe to it.
Toys R Us is selling the 2013 convention exclusive Mark VI figures on their website!!
If you couldn’t go to the 2013 San Diego or New York Comic Cons, here’s your chance to get this figure into your collection.
> Hey guys I just wanted to let you know the big toyfair is going to happen feb 16-19th. Neca has already announced they will have the 1/4scale figures there among other vendors who will also be showing off their halo wares.

> The www.halocollector.com facebook group/forum is also growing pretty fast, we have already surpassed 500 members. I’m sure it will be quite the buzz over there come February.
I know IT would just be speculation at this point but does anyone have any insight on the NECA 1/4 scale? Figures? Prices? I have seen some of their other 1/4 scale work and am wondering if anyone else has any expectations on pricing?
I’ve been to five different Toys’R’Us stores over the past couple of months and I still cannot find a single Halo 4 Series 2 figure! There weren’t even any Halo figures period! Where can I get some without resorting to online shopping?

I know that Walgreens and Gamestop carries series 2 figures. Might want to give them a look.
Mega Bloks had made some videos showcasing the new Micro-Fleet sets. They are the Warthog, Mantis, and Hornet.
Personaly, I love the fact that Mega is finally doing mini-buildable sets, a step up from the die-cast Universe line. The helmets that also come with them look fantastic. So far, my favorite set out the three is the Hornet. I hope this line does well and doesn’t have the same fate as the Universe line. That and I’m planning to have a small diorama with them battling with my Godzilla figures which I will be restarting my collection of those when the Legendary Pictures’ Godzilla toys hit stores as well.

It’s a Shame that they Just repackaged the Cryo Tube Chief, Would’ve been nice to see a different colour Mark VI like one in Orange or Cyan.
The Silver Mark VI is easily my favourite Figure of the three.

Gold Storm Elite and Fuel Rod Turret Makes this a Set That i Will definetly Look at Picking up ( Would Definelty pick it up, But Being in NZ I’m sceptical about the price and Shipping Costs)
The Recon Looks good But the walker itself is… meh

My take on the Spartan IV Battle pack…
This Battle Pack gives buyers a chance of army building these four all new figures by Mega.
Contents include: 1x Red Spartan Scout, 1x Spartan Recruit(AC) , 1x Storm Jackal, 1x Imperial Storm Grunt, 1x stand, 1x manual.
Weapons and accessories: Orange Energy shield, a purple plasma pistol, Reach design shotgun(AC), black SAW, and crimson needler.
Figures:
Scout:
The scout uses the Halo 4 design with a red backwash(crimson) and black detailing.
The shoulders are downsized, his visor is gold, and his armour contains the primary scout pieces, the recruit knee pads, and GV-09 Locking forearms.
The details are very accurate and crisp, however the Spartan could use a secondary colour as it could further bring out the detail and make the colouring less dull.
The helmet is also a bit too wide and as before, the shoulder pads were sized down.
9/10
Jackal:
The Storm jackal is once again very game accurate.
The only problem here is that the machine painted the jaw a bit too far up.
This design however makes the jackals reptilian rather than bird-like. Then again they look that way in the game.
9.9/10
Grunt:
Follows the storm grunt in look except with a face mask.
However it is very lacking in articulation like the previous models(legs and arms)
When will their arms and legs be redesigned?
7.75/10
Recruit:
Following the other recruits, this model is no different. The design is superb and rather fits the mega blok design quite well.
A problem here is that on the box art it is clear, but inside he is blue.
9.5/10(thanks to the misleading art)
Overall this is a great set and I highly recommend it.
9/10
Note I found this set in the states by the border.

If they make a cyan MK VI helmet I will buy for sure!

Awesome! Thanks! I like the sound of the red storm elite.
Also, that new Reap-X model looks pretty interesting. I find it a bit of a shame that the Reap-X vehicles aren’t named in the same manner as the other UNSC vehicles though. 
P.S. This thread is stickied now? Fantastic!

Well I hope that Halo 5 has them! Especially now that they were featured in a blog on waypoint!

Same. It’d be cool to see how they work. 
…Just got Night Ops Gausshog… as soon as I opened it , the Pathfinder had two right arms and to add to injury his leg peg already fell off!!!
I’ll post a review later.
Valo Sweet 666 from the Bloks Forums has posted a pic about the new blue series ODST and Honor Guard weapon packs.
Do have to say why these sets are awesome?
