Mega Construx Halo Sword Base Invasion Unboxing Review

[@Omolonkoolaid]

Those aren't ikea spartans, they were pre built

[@DemarcationMedia]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@visible8524]

I like little packs like these with four figures it’s really cool and just fun to have them like they were the only thing to play with. Not that I play with them lol.

[@perryjohnson3801]

You should!

[@DemarcationMedia]

It's a nice little battle, all in one box

[@cowerdnerddespacito9518]

The little barriers are part of the sword base mission from reach they are scattered around the roads they belong to ONI not the covenant in case you are still wondering

[@DemarcationMedia]

Ohh that explains why it's more angular than the Covie ones

[@justintomimbang7955]

Considering that the Spartan-IIIs in the box were probably used for security detail purposes in looking after Sword Base, it would be a cool idea to make a diorama of before and after for them, before being where the Noble Team stops by as they all engage the Covenant, as the 2 fellow Spartans also help, and after, where the Covenant eventually got the jump and killed everyone, including the Spartans, as they can be reused as corpses and their weapons scattered on the ground. Either one of the Noble Team members would give out the secret code phrase for the deceased Spartans where their suits would detonate after they leave the Sword Base. The Skirmishers look okay but hey, I’m sure people would still appreciate them in the end since they can be formidable in higher difficulties as the Jackals. As for the Spartans, I like the blue, but the yellow is off putting and too hi-viz for a Spartan to be blending in, I would’ve liked it more if they have grey forearms and lower legs, or like what you said, having ONI color scheme, dark grey armor with black accents, visor color can either be blood red if you like them to be intimidating as heck. What do you guys think?

[@DemarcationMedia]

Do Spartans detonate...?

[@justintomimbang7955]

@@DemarcationMedia Their MJOLNIR suits were designed to explode just by the user or anyone including the Spartans saying, “Oly oly oxen free”, to prevent the enemies like the Insurrectionists, the Banished or even the Covenant from getting their hands on it and possibly being used against the UNSC, although I kind of forgot how much radius of the explosion covers, but it’s more than just a grenade, after it burns everything around them, like what happened in Terminator 2: Judgment Day nightmare (unrelated but something I could try to make light of it). That secret word is also used by other Spartans when they’re still training, as its meant to be like, “They’re gone, it’s safe now”, also another thing that they do. I got it from Halopedia, in case you want to learn more about the MJOLNIR suit other than seeing the cool gucci attachments we can get. :)

[@newera6954]

I wanna get this set to complete my ikea fireteam. Unfortunately they are slightly different shades of blue but they all fit the theme

[@DemarcationMedia]

Wait, what are the other spartans you're using? This metallic blue is generally the same as the newer ones

[@BackyardF.C]

I thought the Skirmishers using a marine torso is kinda weird. There kinda thrown together with random parts, but I still would buy it, I want but I don't it's not really interesting I don't know why.

[@DemarcationMedia]

Well, to be fair, the Jackal torso is too skinny for Skirmishers

[@Noobmaster-pf7go]

I just bought it too from dollar general this past Sunday 👌🏽 Got it mostly for the skirmishers since I needed to build up my banished troops for hopefully a moc one day, Also the jumpack

[@DemarcationMedia]

Yeah even though these guys aren't technically Banished, they fit right in

[@lostcoyote]

When I got this I noticed the CQC Spartans right thigh had the left thigh switch so the armor for the right this couldn’t really fit.

[@DemarcationMedia]

Huh that's odd

[@jamesboujoulian2146]

I actually want this set for the blue and yellow CQC spartan. It has my go to color scheme with my favorite helmet!

[@DemarcationMedia]

CQC is epic

[@Mandalore354]

I know these are supposed to be Reach skirmishers but how close is their color to the banished red? Would they blend in or does it clash?

[@DemarcationMedia]

They work as Banished Skirmishers quite well

[@crystaldragonskull2289]

Definitely worth picking this one up! Sadly wasn't able to find this set anywhere in my area.

[@DemarcationMedia]

Dollar General seems to be the only place that really has it

[@collectemall1234]

Just had a question. Do you do KZbin fulltime?

[@DemarcationMedia]

Currently, I don't do it full time

[@collectemall1234]

Great review! I am not a huge fan of the skirmishers in general even though the mega design is really neat! My favorite part of this set is the blue and yellow Spartan color scheme.

[@DemarcationMedia]

IKEA Spartans for the win

[@batmansdad2563]

This and the one that came with the spec elites never hit any dollar general near me pretty solid set though! If nothing else solid weapons come with it and skirmishers aren't seen often

[@DemarcationMedia]

The Spartan IV Team Battle is the other one. Kind of surprising since every DG I've been to has at least one of them

[@Yeti1014]

My dollar general is packed full of these, it's a pretty nice set to get the skirmishers

[@DemarcationMedia]

DG is THE place to find them

[@basicantics60]

first! Also, I love your reviews, they are pretty accurate in my opinion.

[@DemarcationMedia]

I appreciate the support!

[@PixelforgeAnimations]

I need this for my Fireteam

[@DemarcationMedia]

Fireteam IKEA, moving out

[@commandocustomstudios5621]

I have the hero’s cqc and to be honest that one was looks a little better

[@DemarcationMedia]

There's a CQC comparison coming very soon...

[@Albert_EGGsker]

I kid you not I got this for Christmas 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥

[@DemarcationMedia]

Eyyy nice!!

[@ZIPPYFLIPPY]

This set is amazing! But just a little to expensive fo me

[@DemarcationMedia]

Yeah it would be nice to see it closer to $15

[@ZIPPYFLIPPY]

@@DemarcationMedia I fully agree

[@ZIPPYFLIPPY]

@@DemarcationMedia what is your favorite set in like the 2v2 series

[@DemarcationMedia]

@@ZIPPYFLIPPY Probably the Marines v drones

[@ZIPPYFLIPPY]

@@DemarcationMedia ya I agree, I have that one and it's just so cool to finally have a halo 3 set.

[@tunakann7629]

I'm so sad I have to buy like 18 of this set just for jetpacks for my ODSTs....

[@DemarcationMedia]

Ah, yeah. Hey on the plus side, you'll have plenty of Skirmishers

[@Choof_86]

bro this is like the only halo set in all the dollar generals near me lol

[@DemarcationMedia]

XD Well you'll never lack for Skirmishers then

[@mccoolio2867]

Wait THE INFINITE SKIRMISHERS ARE FEMALE? how did I not know?

[@DemarcationMedia]

Yeah apparently they are!
