[@JANGBRiCKS]

Lots of questions about whether the thing walks. It does not walk. All of the features I'm aware of are shown in the video, with all of the buttons being pushed. Thanks!

[@lochlanb]

Would you look at that!

[@ThomasMurphyCosplay]

interesting i like halo but i'm not a mega blocks fan

[@R46E562]

Awwwwww bummed it doesn't walk. Gonna skip on this one.

[@farrelraja2025]

GLORIOUS

[@blackarrow5041]

Cool set. I should get this.

[@Ironworks_99]

I shall call him "Freckles"

[@LaptopGamingDude]

ATTACK MODE, FRECKLES!

[@thecomradeshonor127]

pew pew

[@rosabaiza5242]

U got that from res .v.s.blue

[@GreatfulGert]

+Xenomorph Transformers FRECKLES! INITIATE PIGGY-BACK SEQUENCE!

[@eruiz1953]

I Will Water Him And Feed Him Everyday

[@addisonbagwell6151]

they need to make one that walks

[@rilesmattix5217]

bipedal walking is tough to do artificially without a complex & expensive processor

[@hustle_simmons]

I just realized the Mantis looks like Metal Gear Rex

[@Cleverdinoboy]

yup.

[@daniilseversons2466]

what that

[@AHuang-je4zd]

It also reminds me of the geckos.

[@BrickBuster2552]

Tall ED-209.

[@Captslayer21]

" A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal! "

[@GeckoGuy]

Jang got a killionaire

[@frozenfreehand1997]

I love the weapon action on the mantis! The machine gun is one of my favorites.

[@ToxicAtom]

This may be one of the few Mega Bloks toys I purchase. I've generally had issues with Mega Bloks and the rather lax tolerances they put on their bricks, but since the set itself has so little construction to it, and me being the avid halo fan I am, I'm tempted to actually get this, at a reasonable price, of course.the MSRP is a little high for my tastes, but I'm sure I can find it for a bargain.

[@kylecunningham4382]

Caboose: Freckles! Initiate Piggyback ride!" Freckles: "Yes, Captain Caboose."

[@RintoGaming0200202]

Master CHEIF used to be a rare figure then now there so many version of the master CHEIF now

[@OnyxConflict]

Well, he is the main character of Halo.

[@RintoGaming0200202]

yea

[@Blockistium]

regardless, i think you've shined some light on mega bloks' CHEIF problems as of late

[@OnyxConflict]

Blockistic There have been 2 different Cortanas, 3 Arbiters and 6 Official Mk VI Chiefs.

[@Blockistium]

MrHaloWho ok but can you make this into a graph we need to synergize, people, we gotta maximize productivity and this means visual data

[@krautskaut]

Glad you're back, Jang. I was going through withdrawals without the daily fix of new videos! This Mantis has some pretty neat features. The recoil action in the machine gun is cool. The size difference is not that big of a problem. I would like to see this molded in a different color (Covert Ops steel blue would rock). It would look great on the collection shelf as a heavy support element for an undersized Covert Ops army. Since it remotely controlled, it could also make a good night light:)

[@ShapCast]

FRECKLES!!!!!!!!

[@ApoapsisGaming]

lol RvB jokes

[@fishsticks1195]

No that's freckles mom..... I think

[@ShapCast]

Alex Cauffield Nope it's freckles

[@GreenSkull57]

NothinButRags CABOOSE! :D

[@MrJjppff]

NothinButRags red VS blue reference

[@k.bermejo7334]

Those rockets tho, it would wipe out the whole covenant fleet XD

[@TheTrueAllMight]

Everyone meet FRECKLES! FRECKLES: Disobey direct from caption is punishable by DEATH. Caboose: thats his way of saying hello

[@crashingpowerz8324]

set this up at the top of the stairs and let a friend walk into it's missile barrage

[@UVioletMS]

I got this set yesterday, and it is so fun! It is also cool to shoot the little megabloks characters

[@xwaterlilyx]

FRECKLES!

[@pigeonpostweekly396]

He is now an assault rifle :( Felixstowe vs freckles

[@Moizsh10]

HE RUNS ON THE POWER OF THE FRIENDSHIP OF OUR LOVE!!!!

[@jose.fernandodelacurz6936]

Fernando de la cruz tu vídeo me gustó mucho

[@justinbrown2982]

Jonathan Workman not buying this set is punishable by death lol

[@xXrebuXx]

Who was a caboose figure to do this?

[@austinwelch2315]

I'm a huge collector of this series (getting the Forward Unto Dawn comes in the mail today!) And some how I missed this set for $86 on Amazon. I appreciated the review and confirmed that I want to buy this!

[@datguynuma3730]

You know, the controller itself is entirely based off the Xbox One controller. That's how you know it's Halo right there besides the Metallic Master Cheif figure included.

[@joaqingigante3368]

THIS AWWESOME JANGBRICKS!

[@rilesmattix5217]

I really like the studs on the controller. very cool.

[@Mohammad_Ali__]

I like the older one because not only it can be fully posed, the color of the mantis in dark green seems much more nice in my opinion.

[@garykeller4790]

If I can pick this up on sale, it's coming home...I've always been a sucker for lights and sound! xD

[@lostexile5198]

Why the controller have the same appearance to Xbox one???????

[@arch6typ6]

Because halo is only on Xbox

[@k.bermejo7334]

I don't see myself buying this set, but oh boy, that seems like a lotta fun! Absolute props to Mega! 😊

[@FroooGGy_Official]

SWEET! Thanks 4 All of the Mega Bloks reviews! Keep doing more if you may like!!!!!!!! :-)

[@BanitoAndito]

It's the son of Freckles

[@daandrewman4444]

Who's the mother? 😟

[@BanitoAndito]

You are

[@Youngboybetta]

+Michael Caboose hi caboose

[@plo5515]

You could add extra weapons on the arms to make it a colossus from halo wars 2 because of its size.

[@lubey8865]

Shipmaster 9000 Great idea!

[@sliestwheel]

its the mantis from one of the multiplayer maps

[@SpartanRepublic]

Wow this is so epic THX jang for the review I love the remote features I LOVE IT😀

[@brauliomorales9989]

that minifigure is master chief

[@JANGBRiCKS]

+Braulio Morales You're right! 7:00

[@brauliomorales9989]

I know it is master chief because I saw that set

[@finlayaddy-child2653]

never. (there was absolutely no sarcasm involved there) (non at all)

[@Lsuhh_]

Braulio Morales i bought it just today!😀😀😀😃😄😃😀😊😀😀😀

[@extinct1417]

I like to call this, the "Alpha Mantis" because of the size and color.

[@bigboipactrucc6163]

When machines become animals

[@kirabodaniel-connell5283]

it is bigger because it has to fit the batteries and all that

[@dev5764]

I personally love sets like these. Lego spybotics, Kreo wave board, and many others.

[@trippypsychopath3209]

What's the fun in it if it doesn't walk imagine how fun it would be to mess with your small animals car/dog

[@gbsgaming211]

i got it yesterday and i love it soooooooooo much

[@MichaelBailee]

Thanks for the showing! I'm just not sure why they didn't make the Mantis green.

[@jakenightengale5392]

The colors match the new Mombasa police sets

[@jakenightengale5392]

It's to match the new Mombasa sets

[@Elcestrus]

Jake Nightengale Nope, the NMPD sets are blue/grey/white. This is urban camo.

[@abhidevindrasanan6218]

Thanks so much I was really confused about how to use this thing.

[@kennysoutherland9801]

That looks so awesome.!

[@thegoat1k723]

It looks cool jang nice it's really big

[@georgejennery9264]

Caboose freckles lol I loved red vs blue

[@herobrinearcheraj7658]

This is one amazing set!

[@nottodaydevilshindowraithe501]

They should make an RC Warthog

[@cadenbrinlee9764]

Yes

[@LaptopGamingDude]

The scale seems pretty accurate to the Spartans in game. Wait, this isn't the mantis on Adrift?

[@adammartin880]

Yes, it's the Mk 2 version of the Mantis.

[@LaptopGamingDude]

Adam Martin are you sure?

[@adammartin880]

FloppyFlapjak halo.wikia.com/wiki/HRUNTING_Mark_II_(D)_Exoskeleton

[@LaptopGamingDude]

Adam Martin ah thanks. so why are they using mk 1 mantises in halo 5?

[@adammartin880]

FloppyFlapjak Probably because a Mantis that size would be too powerful to include into the game.

[@brensden8323]

Jang does it walk?

[@timtamproductions8710]

No

[@jianduque7581]

Thats rad man! Great video!

[@wewineu22]

did you have to put on the wires yourself or was it already built-in for the pre-made parts?

[@xifengtan4611]

I love this set

[@alexgibbs5837]

I think its cool to collect because it fits well in my collection

[@theshrubhammr]

R.I.P. Freckles, long live the Assault Rifle!

[@sharkfacemlg]

I think it's the mantis from the map adrift because normal a mantis isn't that big nor has that missile pod and are just modified cargo mantis is this however is a proper attack mantis.

[@OnyxConflict]

This feels more Halo 5-accurate - there's a white Mantis, and Master Chief has repaired, darker armour and a more gold visor.

[@Disc0Darling]

if only these could actually walk. If only I had a magic touch when it came to elextronics I could terrorize the neighborhood with this.

[@GreatfulGert]

Such a cool set! It's too big though, I'm into stop-motion filming and it's too big for the sets and doesn't seem too fit in.

[@k.bermejo7334]

Those missiles though, MAANNN 👌👌👌

[@davidkrowa4153]

hold fire button to charge and fire full rockets, I like that detail its in the game

[@peacekeeper5411]

+JANGBRiCKS That Mantis is from Halo 4 you know, in the Adrift map the middle has an enormous Mantis like this one, I checked the Adrift out on my X 360 and it had the same rockets and same HE Miniguns ( High Explosive )

[@Sketchybro77]

looking at the set, it wouldnt be all too dificult to convert it into Metal Gear Rex or Zeke, would it?

[@LiberasX]

I hope this mechanism is added to Lego proudcts

[@uhhPolo]

THATS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!how much money is it?

[@sansisbored1458]

The X Wolf $50, but I find it in a thrift store for $25

[@LunaticPrime]

There's a clear stut on the top left. Is that a button or something?

[@omicron5128]

Omg it is so cool,man,awesome toy

[@logianschagt4886]

I love your videos they are my favorites thins in the world halo love halo cause I want all the halo sets

[@LockeTheChief]

This is just awesome!

[@Wencater]

[@Tun_cousins]

[@joseflores6508]

cool bro, this set is amazing ima pic this set up in any store

[@_JananaBanana]

I wish they would make a scaled down mantis so the guys can fit in it

[@hampusnyberg1474]

I love the mantis, but i don´t like the fact that there´s just a few pieces, should i buy it anyways?

[@jackplazs9gaming218]

Every one Iv got that set is awesome

[@kjl3567]

That would be amazing if it could actually walk like a Mantis

[@TheRoseblente16]

This is awesome hey jang how much did you buy this

[@spearmint]

Freckles!

[@hlhectic8103]

[@yaerootaegrewriowollio5232]

I hate the scound effects how do you get rid of the beeping noise and I just really like your videos man so keep on going

[@akush42069]

[@joseflores6508]

[@TheCentralTexasRailfan]

[@mrgears3045]

[@mrgears3045]

[@stillhuman4713]

Its going 2 this kzbin.info/www/bejne/mGKZZHineMpgjbM

[@Mythral613]

jang should i get this mantis or the older one???

[@dylanfoxall2763]

Awesome, how you build all of this duff idk!

[@ninjatacoshark]

Even though this can't walk it would still be pretty awesome to get just for the barrage of missiles

[@CoolBricksSayHello]

I actually really like this except for 2 things.1. The head turning problem. 2. I don't understand why the legs are preassembled if they don't even have a motorized function. They could have been built up.

[@juliosanchez4397]

Jang can you please tell us the retail price for this toy? Because I have $37 dolars and I want to know if I could get it or not.

[@koslegoman]

Pretty Cool!

[@MrJjppff]

Is the controller small or do u got huge hands?

[@colorbladenet6875]

Could you make a Lancelot or Gawain knightmare frame

[@peacekeeper5411]

+JANGBRiCKS It is also called the Alpha Mantis

[@alexgibbs5837]

Jang plzzzzzzzz can you review the mega blocks hotwheels monster trucks because I cant find any online

[@steves353]

Yknow, just a few modifications, you could create a hw2 colossus!

[@beanie4930]

I don't like Mega Blocks but this thing is really cool!!!

[@v3nomxxx961]

Hey Jang the scarab is for sale now get it and review plz

[@braixengaming2467]

How do the legs move is it manual or automatic

[@reckless1147]

Caboose why are you wearing the wrong armor and did freckles grow 3 inches?

[@christofersanchez4432]

where can you find a good price for the mantis

[@dday1177]

Nice review

[@golnazshokrollahi7487]

We bought one earlier but it doesn't make sounds or do anything and we did everything it said but does the inside need batteries

[@lostboyaj2868]

This was a great vid 👍

[@daniilseversons2466]

WOW how much is is jang i want it so badly

[@Furno52470]

Get small rc cars under the feet. So it can move

[@alexloudenslager4224]

So it's legs don't move ?
