The Haunted Spartan’s symbol is the Spartan III symbol. It’s a pretty cool nod to the fact that most of the Spartans in Halo Reach are Spartan IIIs. Mega knocked it out of the park with this series. So glad the Haunted won!
Haunted was not my pick but they certainly did a good job
I actually have a chunkier version of the shotgun just like Kelly’s. It was introduced in a Last Man Standing set from 2015 with a zombie operator and orange Commando. It has the same thickness and ability to clip into the hand, no clue why they stopped using it for so long. It’s not the huge shotgun from 2009, there was a smaller version like what was seen before the Red Team Rescue in old sets like the first Halo 3 last man standing pack.
Finally, somebody can actually tell me where the piece first appeared XD
I remember when I collected mega Bloks halo stuff, I remember how much there was in the stores!! I miss that, I do hope that mega keeps working on their brand to bring that back. Been on a nostalgic binge of halo Mega stuff, it's amazing to see how far theyve gotten since that 2009 scorpion tank 😂
That was before my time, but it sounds epic
The shotgun has been around for a really long time, That was the standard shotgun of the Halo 3 and Halo wars sets
I've explained this like 12 times now--the shotgun is an updated, more sturdy version of the normal H3 and HW shotgun.
Pay attention dude. You tried being haughty and now you just look silly.
@@sightlessblood4860 😂😂 u said silly I don’t know why I laughed but it was funny anyway do u want to be friends
@@sourpqtch139 self deprecation always wins me over, so yes we can be buds.
@@sightlessblood4860 awesome
I believe this is the 3rd time we get a skirmisher fig. First one was in the Outlands Skirmish set, although it was a different style.
Great review!
If we count old art, then it's the 5th time, I believe. The UNSC Spade rush had one and then there was also an AC one
Zee, I want you to know how much I appreciate your hyper-detailed reviews. Not knowing the jargon or armor pieces, my wife can only describe so much. However, I can always rely on your reviews to give me all the details my non-seeing eyes cannot. You have refined your craft and I truly thank you for the hard work and alacrity you put into all your content. You got a fan for life 😉
Glad I can help out!
The haunted with the pained concussion rifle looks sick, gonna give that to my elite ultras tho for a complete look mixed with the plasma repeaters
That's a good idea
I cant wait to get my hands on this series. While I wish we got any of the other 3 options instead of Haunted or that Haunted atleast looked good, this has got to be one of my most favorite Heroes Series. Especially thanks to that awesome looking Kelly and the official True Savage figure.
Time to change your PFP to a photo of the new Skirmisher fig
Can’t wait to get a good amount of Skirmishers for my Covenant and Banished armies. The Haunted Spartan is nice too cause you can pop and swap it and you have a new Spartan character
Yeah the Haunted provides some great customizing options
The Haunted Spartan has to be the best figure, same goes to Hudson, and then we got Halo Legends Kelly-087 which is just icing on the cake for me. Glad to see the Skirmisher making its return as well. Really cracked me up when you called Mark VII’s skin as Colgate, which fits his theme more, would be totally hilarious to see someone having a picture of the Mark VII “Colgate” standing next to the actual Colgate toothpaste for the memes.
Also, for the Haunted’s Pilot helmet attachment, the red/gray one is likely the Command Network Module (CNM), and the dark grey thingy on top of his helmet is an armor supplement that is known as Up Armored or (UA) for short, which is my favorite attachment to a Reach/Infinite style minifigure. Although I really appreciated the fact that we can remove his visor, I wished that they could’ve just have the visor permanently attached without us risking losing it, but he just looks menacingly intimidating and just stands out from the rest of the Spartans.
In my opinion the haunted spartan has to be the worst mega construx heroes figure
@@XD-zg1cr How is it the worst? It’s got the new Pilot helmet variation, as well as the new Breacher chest armor, that most of us Halo fans would’ve loved to have. Although it is a nice chest armor, the one I want would be the UA/Multi-Threat chest armor supplement, as it provides more protection around the abdomen while still retaining the sheath for the knife around the same spot.
Again, I respect your opinion regarding the figure, since not everyone has the same agreement and opinion as others, unless you do change your mind about this.
@@justintomimbang7955 for me its the worst because it doesn’t have to much details and it looks to basic if i knew they were going to give us this, i will choose the warden eternal and the brute
The warden was never in the vote...
One of these days I'll remember all the Reach armor attachments XD There's just too many.
The plus side of having a removable visor is an easy repaint to have it become a normal pilot helmet. I haven't tried removing mine though because I don't know if it'll get loose after popping it out the first time
Omg!!!! That haunted and that mark 7 jeez
Great review keep up the good work and stay safe
Mega looked at that Mk 7 and when the designers asked how much print they wanted, Mega just said 'yes' XD
@@DemarcationMedia XD😂😂😂yea
The spartan haunted symbol is the spartan program symbol I believe, comes with Dr Halsey book in legendary and heroic edition of reach
I had an idea for the back of the heroes packaging. They should give the figures a bio.
That would be pretty cool. It'd add to the action figure vibes
Really good review, always love how you go into detail, and im looking forward to get hudson and the haunted now! (and the true savage figure)
The Haunted is absolutely fantastic
Really strong series in my opinion. I like Pepsi man and the Sermisher are figures that I could get a few of. Linda was a nice surprise with the amount of detail.
Kellly
Kelly, but yes she has a surprising amount of detail
The symbol for the haunted spartan’s stand is the spartan III insignia I believe
I can verify that the shotgun isn’t a new mold. Back it mostly came out in 2011 sets and 2012 sets I believe. In 2013 they introduced the new Reach mold and then in 2014 they released the skinny mold and continued on with that. A set I know the shotgun is in is the snowbound battle pack
So weird how they made a worse version only to bring back the good one
The shotgun piece (with the working grip) isn't new, it's existed for a few years now and I own a good number of them but Mega just seems to have mostly favored the thinner variant of it in sets for some reason.
What sets did it appear in? Nobody seems to be able to tell me where they got the beefier version
@@DemarcationMedia I'm going to be honest, I don't remember what sets they came in because most of the ones I own came from lots of figures I got on Ebay over the last few years, but I do know that they've existed for at least three years since that's when I started finding them.
You got lucky you managed to get your hands on the new halo hero series 16 can't wait to get this!
Keep checking your Targets and walmarts
Hey, demarcation media, the coating for the mk 7 is hcs. Winter stands for Halo Champion Ship
Correct! I actually have the coating in game now
The symbol on the haunted spartan looks like the spartan programs logo, at least I think, I remember seeing it in the halo encyclopedia
That would make sense
That Kelly looks dope! That skirmished minor will be an army build to go against Falcon Sweep, and Hudson will look great with my Fireteam Raven! And the Colgate Spartan will make a good Alpha Squad (My Team) member and the haunted helmet looks really good while not being my Noble Six he could also be a good Reach Spartan!
Kelly is definitely the best version of her yet
How the heck did you find the haunted spartan? My stores are always raided by the time I check the shelves.
Got lucky with an Ebay listing
The haunted looks better then i thought it would also that logo on the stand is the Spartan 3 logo
Ohhh that's what that symbol is
@@DemarcationMedia my bad I said spartan III because I had them on my mind it’s just the regular spartan logo
Hey demarcation media how many mark vii do you have?
Ive been waiting for the new sets to come out in my stores. Other than that great review!
Same here--I've got none of the new stuff in stores near me
You should try to swap the tan shoulder and boot pieces with the same green to see what he looks like with just green.
I think I'd have to use the 20th Anniv version of Jerome for it, since this green isn't common. Maybe one of the Infinite Chiefs would work too
While i get why people get confused by weather the shotgun is new, it is it just looks bery similar
Well, the old Containment Armory appears to have had this variant
That mark seven is amazing
None can withstand the might of Pepsi Man!
When do these come out to local store cuz i was able to buy a hive extermination but i havnt seen any hero series 16 im only missing hudson for raven😭
It depends on whether your local stores have batches ordered or not
Want that haunted Spartan reminds me of the patch my wife made for me.
I love ODST’s and a mark 7 Spartans there’s just something about them and halo wars marines cannot be topped
Hard to beat those designs
Fireteam raven should have come with unhelmeted heads.
That would have been nice honestly
the spartan mk vii looks like a police spartan
Haha yeah I can see that!
I def wanna army build those skirmishes, they will go great with the red ones I have
Use the red ones as commanders or something
@@DemarcationMedia yeah, i believe in the game thats what they are
I have the Spartan Kelly only she is from the UNSC artillery base model
Ohh the Firebase? That's the H5 Kelly I think
@@DemarcationMediathis same 👍
@@DemarcationMedia if you can answer, explain to me who the haunted spartans are, I'm a fan but I have my doubts lol
@@w4gn3r001 They are anchient feared warriors summon by the UNSC in a desperate attempt to help fight the Covenant
Ok nah, jk. Its just the name of a Spartan helmet from Halo Reach.
@@TrueSavage555 thanks 🤙
I’ll probably pick up this whole wave
It's worth it
When is the supposed to release? They're nowhere in America still for some reason
They are in the US but only in some Walgreens, CVS, Rite Aid and Frank and Sons
Cant wait to get this whole series!
It's 100% worth getting a full set
Could these be at walmart possibly? Walmart is what i have to depend on (aside from amazon) nearest target is an hour away :(
It's possible. Target isn't even reliable for Heroes anymore sadly
nice review also how did you find a full set?
Ebay surprisingly, somebody had full sets listed for only a little over retail. They're all sold out now though
@@DemarcationMedia oh ok
@@Gray-E.v.a-Productions053 Haunted might still be on eBay. have a look, opened, but it's still there.
No there not sir
Anyone know why there's not that many Halo hero 16 sets out there
Nope, we've had no word on why Mega hasn't been getting these release properly
That mk 7 spartan looks definitely like Pepsi Man.
XD
Also he could have some mentos grenades. 🍬
@@akbarbokhari7727 Hahahaha yes!
Still haven't seen these show up anywhere around me
Same actually
I originally thought the mark 7 battle rifle was the faze clan coating but I guess it’s not
Yeah I don't think it is
Hey man ! Where can I order this series? Do you have any recommendations of any websites or toy sites would you consider thank you and bring on those awesome Halo videos man I love them🎉
Currently, they seem to be unavailable everywhere
The helm attatchment looks to be the Courier Pearl attatchment
Oh, is that what that is?
@@DemarcationMedia I'd say so from the orange/white combo that was in the Reach presets and Infinite's Mk V [B] attatchments
Where can you buy mega construx in general online?
Ebay, Mercari, Facebook Marketplace, Discord and sometimes Reddit. Mattelcreations too. But make sure not to overpay
This series look great but I would wish to see sgt. Johnson in Odst gear one day 🙏
That would actually be great
As cool as that haunted helmet is, you know that vote was rigged
Huh??
@@DemarcationMedia back when it was a "vote for your favorite" I highly doubt collectors would pick yet another spartan that was arguably 80% reused peices...that's why the cqb didnt win....I just have a hard time believing that new flood lost to that
@@ciphergarden8281 There's literally nothing to prove it was rigged
@@DemarcationMedia well as a collector for many years and working for companies like this in the past, they will always go with what's cost efficient...so in this case it's obviously waaaay cheaper to reuse peices and change litterally only 3 total peices, then it would to produce say "thrall slayer" or "flood combat form".....while you are absolutely correct that there is no evidence, I find it odd is all....especially now that the new flood set isnt set till next year
@@ciphergarden8281 Actually, it would have been the cheapest to produce the flood as they already were adding a set with a combat form for the next vote. They could have killed two birds with one stone by making the flood win.
When can you find these at target
No clue
The red is part of the skirmisher neck kinda like a turkey
XD Ha! They do look like turkeys
@DemarcationMedia wish for more skirmisher figures and even a jackal skirmisher cuz there one of the most underrated halo aliens
Yeeeesssssss!!!!!!! witch one is you fav
Haunted, for sure, though Hudson is a very close second
@@DemarcationMedia fully agree
I legit found these figures at an Albertsons only the peppermint Spartan wasn’t there sadly still I had to get two of the haunted helmet Spartans
Finding the Haunted is fantastic!
@@DemarcationMedia bro Albertsons is so on top with there game I kid you not very next day they restocked the Isle and now I have the peppermint one just absolutely crazy
@@fpshightide I've never heard of Albertsons actually
Dude I want that skirmisher so bad but I can’t find it😭 wear did you get it?
Found these on Ebay for a decent price
When does this series become available?
Technically, now
Not a single member of blue team has appeared in halo infinite (we aren't counting Chief), so technically none of them are inaccurate.
Shadows Of Reach as well as concept art show none of them with numbers
@@DemarcationMedia interesting
You forgot to say “pun not intended” when you said that the Skirmisher Minor had a quality control issue? Or was it on purpose?
😂😂 I didn't even notice that I'd made a pun there
The shotgun I think is the second iteration it had? Just based on the video. Without holding it I can't say. It's definitely not the super big original one and it's not the tactical shotgun from reach. I'd say either second iteration or a fourth one. It's a very good one with the print on it though!
I'm so confused why Mega would make this one and then make a new, thinner one only to retire that in favor of the better, older one
They do that with other weapons too, bouncing back and forth between battle rifles and such. It's two different games so I can see them breaking out the older one now and then, which is definitely nice to see the halo 2 shotgun appear again
@@randomredfox2780 The BRs have some clear differences, at least on the H4/5 version. This just seems to be a structural thing, thus my confusion. This one is clearly the better version
am I just the only one disappointed in the haunted figure?? and I voted for him lmao.
first of all the beige looks so ugly, everything I've seen makes it look so plain almost like they forgot to paint it. I'm almost positive we've had multiple painted EVA shoulder pieces and all have been pretty great, I don't get why they'd put all the effort to make the skirmisher look so realistic, all that red just tossed all over Kelly for whatever reason, Pepsi man is the most ambitious figure yet, and yet this guy seems to get the worst treatment paint app wise. sure there's the new moulds but come on, that's no excuse.
the breacher chest has a collar, that should've been painted. it's like not painting the ghilli on Jun's chest, but at least that has some different texture. that makes it much clearer. the green itself, whilst ill admit seeing this video makes it look better, I would've much preferred they go with something darker or with speckles or just black or blue. go all out with the edge you literally made the noob pepsi man skin in the same wave nobody will be upset if you go full edgelord with the literal skull helmet. the beige is the biggest offender for me, it takes away so much from the figure for me, and they've done it SO WELL before. the brown heroes CQC is my favourite figure, the building box EVA had a great beige colour. why did they have to make it so bright. the right forearm I don't like as well, it's a small thing I'm really not too bothered about at the end of the day, but that mould messes with a couple of the weapons when posing, and it just isn't ideal. I much prefer the other one. it's a more personal thing, it's not a big complaint, but it's there.
granted, I don't have it in person, and I'd be more than happy to get him and take back everything I've said and say i was wrong, but damn... until then, I'm so disappointed. if they'd have advertised this for the poll vote, I'd have gone for CQB.
Keeping it 1000 you kinda right tho
We have not gotten many EVA shoulders painted. Jorge is the only one, as far as I can tell.
@@DemarcationMedia even so, that's like 3 versions of Jorge each with their own EVA painted.
@@blue-vr8dd 3 versions of the same pattern painted--not much changes between all 3
@@DemarcationMedia difference enough. they should've put more effort into painting the first fan vote winner, especially if I remember correctly it won by a pretty large margin, Thrallslayer was the only one close enough and I dont think that stood too much chance.
Does anyone have a link to the phantom helmet spartan, I must have that. Who’s selling?
It's showing up in Walmarts in Mexico a lot
I'm disappointed that mega didn't make Kelly as the correct model of the orbital spartan. Same for fred being incorrect armour
But Hudson looks awesome with the rusty orange as his colors
Er, Kelly doesn't use Orbital armor. She uses Hermes. Fred also has the correct armor, as seen in The Package
Will this series get restocked? I missed out on the haunted helmet unfortunately
Restocked where? Most places haven't even gotten a first wave of stock
@@DemarcationMedia oh my god thank you LOL I was stressin so hard about these figures. Kinda new to Mega Construx purchases
Wait they haven’t been stocked yet? Nice, I’m in the same boat as you my guy (except I more-so want the Pepsi spartan)
@@StonyCarrot1001 pepsi spartan should be pretty easy to find on ebay. haunted spartan however i’ve had no luck of being able to get one
@@nex3310 ya but it’ll probably be cheaper and easier to just wait till retailers get stock
I wasn’t able to find a single one of these characters
They're just now showing up in some stores
I couldn't find any of these sets anywhere in my area did not come in certain areas
This set hasn't really come to stores at all aside from in Mexico
This really looks cool
Man I really want the spartan haunted but I don't know where to get one
Yeah this whole series kind of poofed into thin air. Some of them like Kelly and the Skirmisher and Hudson pop up sometimes but never the Haunted
Bro I’m behind.
I still haven’t even got 14 yet or universe blind bags
Dang
Insane, epic review
Thanks!!
The first spartan is USA colors
Pretty much XD
They need to rerelease Graves now. I don’t wanna spend 150$ to complete the set
Agreed--maybe a set like the Red Team 'Hog but with Raven
@@DemarcationMedia I would prefer just a Heroes level figure cuz I’m gonna have all three others really soon and I don’t want extra
The problem is if you are late to the party on getting Graves and Lang you are SOL unless you are willing to pay out the ass for them.
Lang can be found for okay prices sometimes, but yeah, Graves is stupid expensive now
Yo Zee could u do a review of all fireteam raven figures?
As it so happens, that video has already been filmed...
The helmet attachment is the same one Carter has
I thought it might be
Also I collect mega construx halo figs
2025, removable spartan helmets... lol.
We'll see...
I wish I could find these
A lot of people would agree with you there
Where do you find theses???
Right now, it's very hard to find any
@@DemarcationMedia well, the gun goose is around, with some other small sets.
THESE ARE SO HARD TO FIND. HARDER TO FIND THEN THE SERIES 17 AT THE MOMENT!
Yeah sadly that's true
There is a seller in Mercari by the name of popcorn8 selling these for a good price. I bought two spartan haunted from them. They're legit.
Actually sorry to break it to anyone but Thrallslayer was thee correct vote
There was no correct vote
@@DemarcationMedia no you’re unfortunately mistaken thee correct vote was in fact Thrallslayer, I’ve came to this conclusion by checking what the 4 options were and deducing that Thrallslayer would have been the coolest. I don’t make the rules sorry
anybody know a store that ships these internationally?
Haven't found one yet
hell yeah we finally have pepsi man
PEPSI MAAAAAANNNN
The only full series I have is 13
13 is a great series. That's the one I'm in 😏
@@DemarcationMedia I have your figure so I can some things 😈😈😈
New shotgun 👏👏👏
It seems it might have been introduced in the Infection sets years ago, then abandoned in favor of the thin one
Bruhhhhhhhh
i know this is a really nitpicky and nerdy thing to talk about but you did kind of misgender the skirmisher. apparently t'vaoan kig-yar are a predominantly matriarchal society so their warriors and high ranking officers are all female while the males usually have the "lower decks" kinda jobs to borrow terminology from star trek.
That bit of lore was introduced in Infinite, from what I can tell. This one is based on Reach, before we knew that
@@DemarcationMedia not to be the "AcKsHuAlLy" kinda nerd but the mega construx page literally says "designed as she appears in halo infinite"
@@aliensguy4291 The Mega page is notoriously bad when it comes to labeling the figures. Agent Locke was also labeled as being from Infinite when he clearly was the Nightfall version
I'm annoyed I can't find these anywhere.
Start checking Fred Meyers if you have one near you
@@DemarcationMedia Sadly not. Perhaps if I can get out to a Kroger.
@@DemarcationMediaFinally found this series at Meijer.
Only Kelly and Haunted though.
Where did you get this, cant find it anywhere
Got mine on Ebay, but Rite Aids and Walgreens and sometimes CVS has them
There is a seller in Mercari named popcorn8 and they sell these for a good price or you can ask the seller to hold an item for you. I bought two spartan haunted off of them and they are legit.
