Halo Mega Bloks VS Mega Construx! Episode 01.

It's the clash of the DECADE! I finally tackle the age old Halo question, Halo Mega Bloks or Halo Mega Construx... which is supreme?
Over 15 years Mega Halo has come so far and continues to innovate. With the release of the new Halo Universe series 3 blind bags it's time to go back to the start and compare them to their iconic legacy figure counterparts across the 15 years of the toy line's history.

Settle in for a big one!

[@thedomainhalo]

Let’s hear it for the real BOIS

[@TwoTwoSeven227]

YEAAAHHHH

[@DavidRodriguez-po9bc]

I love seeing old and new figure comparisons

[@thedomainhalo]

The response to this video guarantees future uploads in this series!

[@DougWalker1990]

Grunts need a ball joint at the elbow, it would fit no problem on that beefy forearm and give them so much better movement

[@DougWalker1990]

Also love Halo wars music 🎶

[@thedomainhalo]

Never considered that but a fair point!

[@TurkeyProductions7]

Mega bloks because nostalgia

[@UN17A]

Even though I didn't grow up with Mega Bloks, I still collect old articulation figs. They just have a special charm to them that I love.

[@thedomainhalo]

This video was a serious labor of love and a series I would love to continue! Let me know what figures you would like to see compared next and how you scored the figures in this video! ☮

[@DarkLink089]

You could compare old articulation to new articulation for the races like new to old brute, new to old flood and so on

[@Playaj711]

Hunters and Arbiters

[@HeartImpaler]

Theres a certain beauty in megablocks simple design, but i do like the customizability of construct

[@PieceOfJayVA]

this is the kind of content i love to see from you simon, really hits those nostalgia happy buttons in my monkey brain. comparisons like this really help with my currently playing about 9 years of catchup since i stopped collecting these guys haha would love to see more comparisons like this, or some "every ________ figure made" typa videos. would love to see you talk about every EVA figure hahaha

[@thedomainhalo]

You got it mate! The response for this video has guaranteed the next episode in the series 💪

[@anthonymartinez-zu9ft]

Mega bloks to much good memories 😂

[@halo7ification]

One of my favorite videos that you uploaded Simon. Keep it up

[@BaronessFelis]

i remember when you could go into a store like a target or walmart and actually see megablok/mega construx in the stores. i miss those days when i was a kid

[@DavidDanielproductions]

Amazing video! Also the elite at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="607">10:07</a> was a halo 3 elite

[@thedomainhalo]

Thanks for the intel!

[@Firebeast4827]

I was born in 2011 so I didn’t really get to experience the older versions and I can’t really find or get any older figures 😭😭😅but I’m glad I still get to see them on your channel btw I love ur channel/content

[@teensierkitty4214]

Awsome stuff man

[@dalebiskey2808]

Really dug the comparisons, thank you for this. It's too bad that the newer figures don't incorporate both the marbling and the washes. Having both, I think, would provide some killer looks.

[@Colonel-zg9wz]

Just gives me an excuse to buy more earthshade and nuln oil...

[@A_Productions]

The first and grey elite you showed in old articulation was the actual Halo 2 elite. You can tell because the helmets are the same. Then the one you actually used to compare to the new Halo 2 elite is a Halo 3 elite minor, again the helmets line up.

[@templarlt3875]

Next episode has gotta cover ODSTs and Hunters!

[@The_Local_Goose]

Awesome vid! Goose approved, can't wait to see more of this series

[@thedomainhalo]

🪿

[@MacaqueStinx]

Just got the 20th anniversary figure pack, and the floodgate firefight set, and I'm quite happy with them.

[@thebilboy6893]

Great series, keep it going

[@thedomainhalo]

You better believe I will

[@axel.1358]

That new blue elite is the best figure they've ever made imo

[@thedomainhalo]

It really might be!

[@halojon3909]

Fantastic nostalgic video. Def missed the camouflage back in the day pieces. Maybe one day it will be brought back.

[@thedomainhalo]

You and me both!

Love ya bro!

You too brother! Go hit that gym!

[@battlexproductions-pt3ve]

Please do more!

[@HillbillyHermitRC]

I'm Team MB. MCX has the edge on pose-ability. That's it. The paint applications of MB is the sole reason I started collecting. If they would combine the SP figure design of MCX with the paint apps of MB. That would bring me back to collecting. I've been selling my collection slowly on Ebay. I'll keep some select figures for display. One being the gold painted Hunter from BloksFest I got in a trade years ago. As well as some custom commissions from the legend BigFatChef.

[@thedomainhalo]

Ayyyy the Bloksfest gold hunter! A seriously dope collectable

[@timeregent17]

Really makin me feel old, and I'm not that old.

[@investdough]

Iconic

[@AtomicBombadier]

Mega Blocks I like much more for the paint immersion. It holds up so well and a couple things are slightly bulky for me like the elite helmets on the new release is just a little too large. If it was a bit thinner it would mesh so much better

[@thelonewolfofsociety4325]

That one green elite minor from the old blind bags was the pre arbiter before the phantom released 😂

[@thedomainhalo]

Hah fair play!

[@shiny-piplup]

halo 3 elite btw for the redesign you can tell by how detailed the helmet is

[@laosnago]

All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous

[@samwebb1852]

I forgot about the chase jackal, I remember hunting for it in 2012 and it was non existent

[@alanjeanvazquezpena1133]

If they changed the new elite head mold it would definitely be perfect, it shouldnt be the halo 4 and 5 elites head

[@ReconProductions117]

I agree Simon, I feel like the mega bloks have more paint apps on not only the fig, but also the gun as well. I mean the spartan laser is just beautiful on the CQB. So one thing I wanna mention if you would be interested, Is I wanna see more stopmotions from you. I know you haven’t done it in a while, and it would be cool. I mean see ing the background of the video would be perfect for a stopmotion. So you should try it again.

[@thedomainhalo]

I want to dedicate a weekend one day where I livestream for like 40 hours and make a stop motion live hahaha

[@ReconProductions117]

@@thedomainhalo I would love to see it 🤣👌👌

[@sbkchillz]

What would be peak would be new articulation figures with paint jobs like the old ones. And I mean not just in the hero lines or special packs but even the painted weapons to make them pop

[@thedomainhalo]

Imagine if Mega just straight up did an old articulation blind bag series again for an anniversary hahaha

[@sbkchillz]

@@thedomainhalo that would be cool to see how they do with it. So many great ideas and ik they do listen to some. Which is great

[@vsluma]

With the elite it’s weird that I almost prefer the old one as it’s almost like the halo 3 McFarlane figure scaled down. Maybe it’s the helmet and colour.

[@franciscovs001]

I love the old elites. Anyone know if theres a way to upgrade the old elites to look a bit better? To make them taller and more menacing as simon described the new articulation?

[@thedomainhalo]

I don't but I challenge you to find a way!

[@FalloutFrenzyYT]

Hey dude, I am just wondering if you are going to the Atlanta HCS this June. I am, and I am super exited! 😃

[@thedomainhalo]

I’ll be in Seattle for worlds this October!

Makes me sad I don't have mine anymore I spent my whole childhood collecting things I had know idea the value of

[@AjaxG23]

Bro, mega blocks for the win

[@Thatonegreyofficer]

Depends on the person really I prefer new elites but I also prefer old jackals

[@Donald_Truck-uz2eu]

I really want these packs are there any places where I can actually buy them for their normal price?

[@thedomainhalo]

Even I can’t unfortunately!

[@lilkevthesavage4747]

At some point I bought like 3 at Walmart 2 years ago for retail but I’m not so sure they have them there anymore

[@gcc989]

Kroger (Fred Meyer), they pop up in big lots, Meijers, dollar generals. it's really random and geography specific

[@bryangarcia7318]

Every new articulation figure is better now except for the brutes. The chieftain from the NMPD hq set will never be topped by the Infinite figs. Of course, I'm not talking about the new honor guard that came out recently that thing is insane

[@thedomainhalo]

Ohhhhh the NMPD chieftain is always absolute top tier

[@stickyrice445]

I absolutely hated the original grunt articulation but loved the paint jobs

[@thedomainhalo]

I hope no old articulation grunts were in ear shot when you typed that 😏

[@e.e1699]

What is the newest halo Lego set in 2024

[@mrfunatparties6763]

Both even. Bloks were unique i tnik for spartans they had a good head/ body ratio except for marines, bc construx arms went to far out and with all the articulation and felt like mini action figures of mcfarlane. Constux had better customizable stuff and better looking covenant

[@kyleknight9686]

old far better due to less rubbery feel and less parts falling off

[@joshuanobody9426]

I loved the mega bloks but the meg construx had more then the previous

[@Eizh]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="588">9:48</a> Nah you ruined the balance here. The Mega Bloks Elite is an Elite from Halo 3, while the Mega Construx Elite is an Elite from H2A. The previous articulated Elite that came in the H.Infinite Mongoose was the Elite from Halo 3 as well, having a variant painted as Halo CE in the Clash on the Ring Blindbags. The Elite from Halo 2A is the counterpart to the first Elite from Halo Wars (as you can compare in the video) and has another painted variants, even the Ultra Elite from the first Wraith Set (a Top Figure imo), since these are based directly on the Elites from Halo CE/Halo 2 and some time later Bungie took the design of the Elites helmet for the Minor Elite in Halo Reach, being reused by Blur in H2A like the Halo Wars Marine Armor that we saw in green too.

[@thedomainhalo]

You clearly know your elites! Bravo 👏

[@Eizh]

@thedomainhalo rematch, my boys are iconic. They deserve some recognition, 3v3: Mega Bloks HW Elites, H3 Elites and H4 Elites vs Mega Construx H2A Elites, H3 Elites and H5 Elites.

[@Firebeast4827]

You should try and get mattycrafts to make you a custom mega blocks flood brute ❤😊😅😂

[@Ensbfgnerfer-rn5ck]

Ye

[@Wolfbroa]

For me it always been mega blocks for the covenant thats way better but mega construct for the spartans that are better

[@Colonel-zg9wz]

The biggest thing mega construx did was give us Rtas with two mandanles instead of four like the old ultra

[@matthewdoyle2764]
