The Banished Garrison Pack is AWESOME! Review - Halo Mega Construx.

[@jeebus2313]

I remember my initial reaction to this set being that they should have taken out the Spartan and the marine and added a couple more Banished units. But that being said...the marine and the Spartan actually look pretty cool.

[@PurgeSeraph]

I want one for the chieftain for sure. Won’t hurt to get the extra marines being I want a to build a UNSC platoon (roughly 36 figures.)

[@lilfloppa9984]

Go for it I have a UNSC platoon of 36 to 40 marines

[@PurgeSeraph]

@@lilfloppa9984 My goal at the point would be building a company with 164 personal. Which breaks down to four platoons and headquarters unit.

[@brickmanreviews8997]

@@PurgeSeraph I feel like the downside to that is that the marines mostly will all look the same

The chieftain is clearly bassus but I’m also pretty sure the grunt mule is briglard

[@Fomishin]

When I saw that grunt I just : “wait , is that Briglard?” So I’m agree with you (Sorry for bad English)

[@RampantBasilisk]

@@Fomishin No need to apologize man, as long as people know what you are saying it’s alright.

[@dogeclanallforwonwonforall9065]

Who is he?

[@BrickyMySticky]

The brute is clearly bassus but the grunt is NOT briglard, briglard has purple armor, same as bipbap.

[@rtoney85]

You mean vickter

[@theflyingknight7809]

This is exactly what we needed. This will be such a grate army builder. I don’t know how much it costs but if it’s cheep than that’s the greatest thing ever!

[@meman176]

$19.99 :O

[@haloeditor6352]

Around $3.30 per fig and they come with weapons, pretty good deal considering chieftains alone sell for $5-$10

[@gagechacon9952]

On my opinion it is a great set and you should definitely use it in a diorama.😃

[@SonicJohn117]

Such a cool set, can't wait to get my hands on it eventually! That gold Chieftain is awesome, and all the other characters look top tier detailed

[@radioactivecheese2130]

Can't wait to see the animated review! ;)

[@SonicJohn117]

@@radioactivecheese2130 Ayyyy :P

[@proper7439]

Super hyped for this set. Unfortunately not a single store in California seems to have the sets till like a year after they're released (I still haven't found the ghost and I just got the razorback on superbowl Sunday)

[@arbiterproductions0516]

Nice thing about the unsc figs is they match the marine sniper and I assume the odst in the gungoose it’s like a oni strike team or something

[@TY-PO]

The UNSC figures in this set are really similar to the Marine Sniper from Halo Heroes. I hope they keep the covert ops color scheme going because it looks dope! I also can’t wait to build a squad of three Victor the Grunt’s and three Brute Chieftains.

[@CommanderVexer]

I’ve got 4 of these garrison packs on the way (along with 4 gungoose gambits) and now I’m looking forward to them even more! Thanks for a thorough and enjoyable review 😌👍

[@Jbread456]

where did you get the gambits?!?!

[@CommanderVexer]

@@Jbread456 deep discount is where I got them. Apparently they are reliable so I’m trying them out. They are on pre order and set to release on the 15th 😌👍

[@Jbread456]

@@CommanderVexer Yeah I saw those and the other sets for halo universe as on that site. However I hope Deep Discount is better than entertainment earth, since they have the worst order service ever...

[@CommanderVexer]

@@Jbread456 yeah looks like mixed reviews online but it seems to be a common go to for mega collectors and all the people that didn’t like it said that it’s only a problem when you have to return items…I almost never break from Amazon target or Walmart so this is definitely an experiment for me

[@Jbread456]

@@CommanderVexer Good luck man! If I don’t see these sets in the next week or so I may consider buying from there:. Stay fresh and stay safe spartan:)

[@Evelyn-qt3hi]

I hope this set is VERY widely available. Hoping to get two as soon as I can!

[@clarityrs]

Viktor is just beautiful. Though that marine tho, and that spartan, and BASSUS, AND THE FELLOW MONKE, i dont know WHICH ONE is the best!!!!!

[@Jbread456]

Kinda seems like this will be VERY hard to get(Since its only on the Walmart site) but great set! Can't wait to get this one! My favorite figures are probably the Elite Mercenary and Spartan Trailblazer. Oh yeah and also awesome video as usual!

[@Applden]

I took one of the pale brutes and put it on the brute cheiftan to look like Bassus😅😊

[@remytheyhttbernier4218]

I am so hyped to add this set to my collection especially with all the cool figures I love that elite and the spartan (love the content)

[@eliteanimation9918]

My thoughts on the height for the figures is that when something is scaled down that much a difference of a foot terns into a difference on like less than a cm

[@thomaspicone7341]

Just got the marine platoon pack on amazon, now I need this so that marine can be my marine commando

[@haloeditor6352]

Great way for MCX to start the year off, gotta get my hands on one of these for that “Bassus” figure.

[@jakescustoms]

I can't wait to get my hands on this set, the figures are so awesome!

[@bananamodz2847]

I can't wait to start building my UNSC collection, but with it, I obviously need to get my Banish/Covenant collection built up so that the UNSC has some sort of competition

[@Albert_EGGsker]

I have a question for Craig. What is the best set you are in?

[@DavidDanielProductions]

Master chief vs Craig🗿

[@noblesevenproductions]

Yeah, so this is in my opinion is one of the best sets that mega construx has every made.

[@jokingpoet]

It’s hard to find others who appreciate Halo Mega Construx like we do

[@cbannerman5541]

That set is great I have been waiting for it myself and I am still waiting but this review confirms that I hopefully will get it when it comes out

[@leonardoparuckerdacosta6142]

10/10 for sure that marine and the chieftan are definitely my favorite part

[@VenomSnake00]

I can’t wait to get my hands on that new commando rifle mold. It’s one of my favorite weapon designs out of all of Halo

[@Night_Rider83]

About the set having UNSC figures, and not a full house of Banished, it's because the Banished figures are very specific and different. The Marine Platoon Pack is packed with mostly marines, differentiated by accessories and weapons, so you can swap them around and create your own custom figures and combinations. With kids in mind, as they are the target audience, having a customisable set is fun, whereas a set with different, not so army buildable figures isn't hence the inclusion of some opposition.

[@Quillian]

Ah, this just makes me wanna get this set even more. Really cannot wait to get 12 of this on hand 😂

[@holyredeye381]

When is it releasing?

[@Quillian]

@@holyredeye381 oh it's out on the Walmart website like Simon said. But it keeps going out of stock

[@novaglacial9779]

I got mine yesterday, i havent opened it yet since im moving out to an apartment but i personally loved all the figures specially the marine, it reminds me of the original marines that came out in the first sets of Megablocks, the ones that were form Halo Wars. Im gonna buy another one and start making a diorama of the banished and some marines.

[@KumberlandEntertainmentService]

Hi, I've watched this several times, (and I don't know why) and it just dawned on my, the radar jump pack brute was not the last one we got for that type of brute, hyperius also had a jump pack, (even though he is technically a Spartan Killer, not a jump packer) but he did have one in the Defence Point Showdown :)

[@Fomishin]

This set is amazing ! “Bassus” beautiful ! And I think that spartan is Bonita Stone.

[@DavidDanielProductions]

My chieftain and one hand of my brute came with a hand that had extra plastic on it for some reason and it made them have a hard time holding stuff;I had to put sticky tack so chieftain could hold his hammer

[@xnightfall7657]

9:00 the helmet will just fall of. One of my elites helmet broke a little and it falls of all the time

[@proper7439]

Some of them stay on well. The old banished banshee set falls off with barely any effort but the honor guard helmet stays on really well

[@DavidDanielProductions]

You should put tack on the helmet to keep it from falling

[@michellehsu5158]

One question, hwo do grunt mules (the vectors) breathe? The dont breathe air and they dont have tanks!

[@andrewodell2300]

Looks like a great set to own. But my house just went up in flames and I lost about 10,000 dollars worth of halo. Been collecting for 11 years now. Well I don't think I'm going to collect anymore 😕

The hight of the Spartans should the hight of the call of duty figures while the brutes are a bit taller then the COD figures. It's always griped me that the Spartans, brutes and marines are always the same size.
