I really like Mega's Halo Infinite Banshee. The red is very nice and it's also the only one I have! LOL! 😂 Edit: Holy cow! I love that picture at the end! It's absolutely amazing! 🤩
Love the classic purple and dark blue. Love the Banished. The new build is fine - but printing lights on! Man, you gotta love Covenant gear because its so thematically consistent and Mega has really needed to put more lights on Covenant armor and vehicles.
Banished Banshee may be my least favourite out of these 3 but it's not my least overall, just needed a couple tweaks for the communities favour. oh and the lack of a flight stand pole on the new tv show banshee reminds me of the original halo wars banshee that only had a few clear bricks to hold it up, back when wings couldn't move... old times.
@@DemarcationMedia Honestly, the space banshee. It got too much credit in my early collectors days but after getting it again a year ago, I realised just how flimsy and "open" it is, it doesn't look like something that would survive an assault rifle let alone space.
“Orbital Banshee and HW2 Banshee are too expensive for me to track down”… sir they are respectively $50 and $30 SEALED even on eBay… that’s too much????
$50 for a single banshee is too much, yes. Especially when I have to keep hunting new sets. Last I checked, the HW2 Banshee sealed was much the same price
I got the banished banshee a few years ago and the truth is I didn't really like the design so I made some small changes that made it look a little more aggressive and it looked very good to me.
the peg hole is annoying because they had one that didnt have a peg hole on the space version of the reach banshee. I also dont like where the wings connect, i feel like they coulda hid the folding mechanism better like they did on the arbiters quest.
I'm tired of the Reach design being reused, I don't like how it's taken over the iconic design with the pods on the wings. Arbiter's Quest and Banshee Brawl are my choices for Covenant and Banished Banshees
@@DemarcationMedia I mean throughout the games and media, it was reused in 4, the inspiration for the design in 5, Banished-ified in Infinite, copy and pasted in Halo 2 Anniversary multiplayer, and used in the show now. We just haven't seen the original in so long and that other design has taken over completely (not that it's a bad design by any means, I just miss the original and prefer it). It's actually cool to finally see a variation of it in Mega form though after all this time
@@lk_2696 Yeah that's the design for Banshee Brawl, and it should have been the one used in infinite imo, would have been a little more in line with their Halo CE inspirations to have the classic one return but ig they also felt like they needed to appease Reach fans as well or something
man I regret the halo infinite banished banshee as my first one, its so bad compared to the rest, especially when you compare it to the previous one from Halo Wars 2.
Like I said in the video, I don't think it deserves all the hate it gets, especially with so much praise going to the new one that uses nearly the same design
Watching this makes me appreciate my halo wars 2 banshee set even more.
That one certainly looks fantastic. I've heard it's pretty fragile though

The banished banshee was one of my first sets
It's very accurate to the in-game one, which makes me like it.
Also thanks! It was actually created in the Flood Outbreak Dusted Off video
Awesome video! Can't wait to get one of the new Banshees in hand! Goose approved!
Keep your eyes on the Amazon listing for when the real stock comes in
@@DemarcationMedia no listing on .ca yet sadly, unless it came back since yesterday. Still gonna keep my eye out though 👍

They've been printing the lights on more and more often which is fantastic
I agree with your rankings myself. Like you said the banshee needs a stand. Seems like mega was just cheaping out.
Yeah I'm baffled. Because they used two bricks for the tiny stand when they could have used two parts for a normal stand
Banished Banshee may be my least favourite out of these 3 but it's not my least overall, just needed a couple tweaks for the communities favour.

Which one would be your least overall?
Ah, the designers decided to take a page out of their old playbook XD
@@DemarcationMedia Honestly, the space banshee.

Hahaha yeah that makes sense
I think mega does really well with design ing banshees
“Orbital Banshee and HW2 Banshee are too expensive for me to track down”… sir they are respectively $50 and $30 SEALED even on eBay… that’s too much????

Love mega banshees. Even the 2010 one despite how terrible it was.
Even the derpy ones have their own charm
Personally I do like the Halo 3 Banshee from that anniversary set over the Halo 2 Banshee
The one from the Sparrowhawk set?
@@DemarcationMedia Yes that one
@@PackHunter117 It's identical to the H2 one, aside from the colors
@@DemarcationMedia Actually the wing engine pods are slightly different designs also
Oh really??
Yo... I like those!
They're pretty slick aren't they?
I got the banished banshee a few years ago and the truth is I didn't really like the design so I made some small changes that made it look a little more aggressive and it looked very good to me.
I'm all for modding a set if the design doesn't quite work for you
the peg hole is annoying because they had one that didnt have a peg hole on the space version of the reach banshee. I also dont like where the wings connect, i feel like they coulda hid the folding mechanism better like they did on the arbiters quest.
Yeah but they haven't used that in years. Plus, this isn't the space version
Nice
They need to bring back the hw2 banshee
We won't see that for awhile I'd guess
The reason I didn’t like the banished was because the body overcame the wings and gave it a disproportionate look to it
You think the wings are too small?
@@DemarcationMedia yea the body overlapped them
I wish I had a banshee. I will… one day
It's not too hard to get one
@@DemarcationMedia yeah, I know. Also, is that a Santa hat on your Spartan?
@@BaggedRanchGirl Haha yes it is!
@@DemarcationMedia very festive
Man I wish I could get the arbiter but it isn't available in Amazon de
It might be on mega website
Did you check MattelCreations.com?

This is the first Reach banshee from Mega though? Not sure how you can be tired of it being reused when it hasn't been reused that much

Ahhh, I see, I see. That makes sense
@@doomguy2020you do have to give credit to halo wars 2 at least for having one inspired by the bungie designs with the pods on the wings
@@lk_2696 Yeah that's the design for Banshee Brawl, and it should have been the one used in infinite imo, would have been a little more in line with their Halo CE inspirations to have the classic one return but ig they also felt like they needed to appease Reach fans as well or something
will be getting this because of Halo Reach, not because of the show, which is a joke of an adaptation.
I can get behind that

The renegade banshee is the best😡😡😡
It's a good build!
