If the Scarab isn’t fragile, then I doubt they would be. And the weapons, due to their price, would probably go to primarily adult men with well-paying jobs. And, although the Mantis is a great set and I suggest you pick it up whenever you can, it is not technically available right now, so it’d be pretty difficult to find one.

First thing to note, you can call mega bloks for replacement parts.
Second, these can be harder to put together than lego sometimes, so don’t get angry.

If the weapon is built with enough bricks, it SHOULDN’T be fragile.
Assuming that building a toy gun is with regular bricks and is built to size, there shouldn’t be much to worry about.

What? Those kinds of people still exist? I thought I was the only one left. It really depresses me that he sacked the Halo line. So much potential…
Hey, does anybody know what happened to The Halo Figure Forum? It is just… gone.

Wait, what?? He canned his Halo line? Like … never going to make any more ever again? When did that happen?

Don’t worry, there will still be more. Unless I’m mistaken, there should a H2 Chief and a H5G Chief coming out this fall. There has been a decline in figures, but that is because now they are making a lot more figures in different lines.

I worded my post poorly. The line is still up, but barely. We are just going to get 2 Chief figures this year alone. We got no Halo 4 Series 3. I would have loved to army build some of the figures that were rumored. Figures like the Storm Elite, Imperial Grunt and Alpha Crawler. But nope, we just get 2 Chief figures. That is all we get for a year. I would surprised if we get anything else from them in the future. The line is dead in my eyes.

Noble is correct!
Nice to see you again!
It’s been awhile, you may have known me as RubricFlunky…
Also, Cizlin…the OP hasn’t been updated in a LONG time!

We don’t know about a lack of a Series 3, but it is rather likely. Perhaps they’ll pull something out right before Halo 5/H2A, fingers-crossed. But if there won’t be, then that will be very disappointing. I was REALLY hoping for an Elite Storm. Hopefully the next game will have a better crop of figures.

I really enjoyed series 2!
I was hoping for another well coloured scout for my collection!
Well, I totally didn’t notice, but this thread recently had its one year anniversary! As of Thursday, this thread became a year old. And it feels like yesterday…
Thank you to all of the people who have contributed repeatedly over this past year making my thread a prominent and successful one.

It seems just like yesterday, I was stalking these forums as a ghost…
So it is nice to see that we will be getting a H2A Master Chief figure by Play Arts Kai. It appears to come with 2 SMGs and an Energy Sword. I also heard from a friend of mine that we might be also getting an Agent Locke and Arbiter. He supposedly read it on their Twitter. I would not get my hopes too high though.

That Play Arts Kai looks pretty good.
Also I would not keep my hopes up.
I had not been to Target for 2 months and I find out that the blue series sets are on clearance…only this week
At least I nabbed an Honour Guard and ODST for the price of one!

That’s awesome, dude.
Because they haven’t shown themselves in my area yet. I wonder if they’ll be internationally available as a Fall 2014 exclusive.
So I heard that companies make super exclusive figures during CC. Exclusive as in you can only buy them there and they will costs hundreds online. There are a few super exclusive Halo figures that only a few people will have. That really angers me.
