HALO MEGA CONSTRUX - Falcon Sweep set REVIEW - HDP62

[@ruufiss9922]

Missed the 2nd launch got 1 from entertainment earth when it first dropped. Damn shame because I wanted 2 falcons since noble team uses 2 falcons in the game

[@JasonNeaves]

they have them online for as low as 150 usd🤣

[@Quillian]

After its 2nd botched release, MEGA has to know by now to make enough units for everybody, like the character pack for example. At first was scalped to hell & back & nobody could get it, now its distributed to amazon pretty well & is still in stock! Hopefully MEGA will hear our outcry for more reproduction of this set & get it to where anybody can afford it on a retail website without resorting to ebay for scalp prices *edit: No I did not get a copy of Falcon Sweep, in fact I dont even have the funds rn to even afford 1 for my desired amount of 4. I just idly watched as the stock quickly ran out in just a few hours, ik its partially my fault but I'm not someone ready to commit absolute murder on my wallet lol

[@Meta-Breaker]

I REALLY WANT IT!!!

[@brickman1175]

Did you manage to get this set? RUNNING TOTAL: 22 Yes VS 57 No (as of 4th September 2023)

[@supremechaosxd995]

Got it when it first released. It was a must have for me.

[@ZoraEpsilon571]

i managed to get mine in the VERY FIRST RELEASE like a year ago now? but- it got sent to an old address after having just moved and was sent back before i could get it ;n; deep discount or whatever the site was called i ordered from and never received it and finally FINALLY this time around, i just barely managed to get my 2 from when it sold out in less than 4 minutes now it's back up for pre order, after selling out, sold out, *back* up for pre order again and sold out yet again and i don't know where it's at now if it's back up yet again or not yet

[@Chris-ht1nq]

Got it

[@Zodac77]

Yes, i got it

[@anonymoushunter9808]

No. Not paying scalpers pricing either

[@pramusetyakanca1552]

Good thing for MEGA to realize that Noble Team are some of Halo's most iconic groups, so having them all together in one set was the right move.

[@killerhead2477]

I have always wanted this set. but it is probably to late for me now. I can't find it anywhere online or in stores, and if i do, they are like 300 dollars. Only way to see it is through your video of the falcon sweep. It looks so good though. Also awesome videos that you make.

[@tallman1184]

Gotta hand it to Mattel/ mega for dropping the ball for majority of us. It is a beautiful set though, wish I could’ve gotten one

[@grades6831]

Payed $110 USD for mine today on eBay. The resell price is much more reasonable after the second wave.

[@brickman1175]

Agreed, the restock really hit the scalpers where it hurts.

[@biIIybob858]

Megas loss letting all those resellers get extra money

[@robertlamb1530]

This is my favorite set that MEGA has made so far, and it's also my favorite vehicle from the Halo universe! Like you said they did an amazing job with this set, and it is unfortunate that some people have not been able to get one. Great video as always!

[@brickman1175]

Couldn't agree more!

[@JasonNeaves]

i need to get this set asap

[@shiny-piplup]

noble 6 i dont like the helmet tbh

[@carllawson5043]

This is one of my fav sets!!

[@brickman1175]

Smashing the comments section 😂😂, you and everyone else. Perfection!

[@WildPhoenix989]

I have the first original falcon and its still one of my fav sets to this day. I like this falcon as well and mega did really go all out on it which I will give them massive props for doing. The set looks amazing but my only nitpick is what on earth for front gun is that? They really just stuck a pole piece in there and was like “boom, front gun”, they couldnt have just did the front gun like they did the other turrets? I know its such a miniscule thing and you can just swap it out with another front turret piece, but really mega? Lol, sorry for the rant.

[@brickman1175]

You are right on the nose gun, honestly not sure why they broke the tradition of the using the normal piece given how far they went with this set. If you didn’t know better I think it looks fine but when compared with what came before I agree with your thoughts now that you point it out. I did think when building ‘that’s different’ but didn’t really give a second thought other than they’re trying something different. Now I need to know the reasoning behind the decision 😂.

[@WildPhoenix989]

@@brickman1175 Idk tbh, I just thought that was so random and i feel like something had to be said lol.

[@donchik06]

No 👎 but I want it

[@brrrruce]

I hope they manufacture more of these because I absolutely love halo reach and definitely love to have my hands on one of these. I missed my chance to purchase this set both times.

[@ZaibJ]

Bruh this is so sad:( why did I miss this set

[@blitzkrieg4689]

Scalpers bro it’s not ya fault

[@cowerdnerddespacito9518]

Does noble six have the old reach assault rifle from the early 2010s? Instead of the new version they made for halo infinite?

[@brickman1175]

I believe so, I’m pretty sure it’s not the infinite one so I’d say yes.

[@A_Productions]

This box looks beautiful Edit 1: are the details stickers or printed? Edit 2: are there 2 chainguns or 1 chaingun and 1 grenade launcher?

[@John.S.Patton]

No sticker and 2 chain gun's

Igual, solo he visto en eBay y cuestan un jodido riñón, si encuentras un lugar donde vendan, me avisarías por favor?

[@SonicJohn117]

I managed to put in an order for this during the 2nd release and I can't wait. The actual falcon looks different enough to justify it compared to the old one and I can't wait to make some noble team stop motion! Great review 🙌

[@brickman1175]

So glad you managed to snag one, this set will make for your best review yet I have no doubt. You won’t regret the purchase either way, this set truly is amazing and the build is simply first class from start to finish. Hopefully you’ve built one of the original Falcons to really appreciate the improvements that have been made.

[@SonicJohn117]

@@brickman1175 Thanks! Yeah I do have the original grey falcon so it'll be very interesting to compare

[@colalover873]

ive recently gotten back into these things, largely due to stumbling across your channel... when i was a kid they were mega bloks, but a while ago i really got into lego and seeing some of these halo mega construx sets ive bought a few and would love to own a few more, including this one, since reach was my first halo and remains my favorite, so they should produce more! its been kind of frustrating getting into halo mega construx in 2024 because i barely if ever see the things stocked in stores around where i live, and mostly can only find the things on amazon and second hand sites like ebay, and you cant seem to be able to order directly from their own website? you cant even find the information for how much these originally retailed for? theyre incredibly cool builds and figures, but the company that owns them (which I guess is mattel?) seems to not really know what its doing, or barely care thanks for the great videos!

[@brickman1175]

When so many are walking away from Mega due to the painfully frustrating distribution issues it good to hear there are still people entering or coming back to the brand. All you can do at this point is stick it out and hope things improve going forward. Welcome aboard.

It would be great if 343 could bring back halos old popularity so mattel decide that more halo sets of this amazing quality are worth it Edit: I feel like lego could learn alot from this set on how to treat their star wars line...

[@Dromarius]

Nice one for getting one sets, I doesn't have this chance -_- I'm just lost about this sets... When you look the incredible flood gate we got this year, i just can bought tens of them if I wan't. And 3 times, this sets was sell in less than few hours each time it was sell... Like i said before, i'm mad but i don't blame anybody for what happens, but i'm still disappointed by how Mega manage sets for sells. It's same with collector heroes i never see anywhere in sells instead on Ebay... For a Fan of the CoD line, i'm really frustrated about the cancel of this line without clear and official informations. And i'm still seeing this shit silence about the first of all line still ALIVE since all these years, and i don't understand why they act like that... Why they don't give informations to their fans, that's really making me think maybe i was wrong with this company and start collect figures since years. The crazy amount i spend and every time the same problems...

[@dinosaurwithcake1256]

I think they could've made the passenger area a bit longer for more leg room, but it's still a solid build.

[@Meta-Breaker]

I REALLY WANT IT

[@Phobithius_B257]

Nope, never got the chance 😢

[@logangray4437]

Bring back the scarab set or a new edition remake

[@brickman1175]

New addition remake all the way, with their current parts and designers it would be phenomenal.

[@KaijuKitty]

I'm a month late on this review (new subscriber as of now btw) I got mine last week after a small opening in pre-orders a couple of weeks ago made it available, only to get sold out again. I'm very happy with it but I'm not happy that there are still many collectors still out of luck for now, and that many scalpers were able to order far more than purchase limit would allow due to a screw up on Mattel Creations. I've seen many being sold on ebay for double the original price. MEGA and Mattel need to fix this problem.

[@brickman1175]

Scalping will continue to be a problem sadly until MEGA fix their supply issues. There are signs of improvement thankfully but it’s still early days.

[@phraeci9070]

I’ll never forgive them.

[@brickman1175]

It went up for pre order again last night, it’s sold out again now, not sure if yo7 got one. If not follow Megaconstruxnews on insta, they’re very good at letting people know when it comes back in stock.

Is that front and bacward of the box or they make a new box for the second print ??? And is that from the second print you get it or the previous drop ? It's look like back and front but just for be sure ^^
