- A lance of Covenant spec ops infiltrate a cardboard box space station. Will they find friend or foe inside?
DISCLAIMER: This video is not an entry for TheDomains Toymation fest 2022 - Just a fun video made with the prizes I got from Toymation fest 2021 for coming 2nd place.
I had a lot of fun making this video, this one is long overdue. It is a little rushed, but I'm satisfied with how it came out. Hope you all enjoy :)

This is INCREDIBLE! I hope you're still entering the ToymationFest too!
Nice to see you hear domain
Hi domain
There is something so wholesome about seeing an elite acknowledging an Unggoy’s actions 😂.
Probably the only elite commander I've ever seen care about his grunts like that
You literally captured the mannerisms of the covenant/banished races perfectly, that elite was more believable to be an elite than any of the halo 4/5 elites we saw. Absolutely perfect
Some cool facts about this video😎
-I made the micro fleet Covenant Cruiser exclusively out of parts from the halo 5 wraith (Wraith Ambush DPJ93) set.
-The custom Grunt masks, CE Jackal helmet and H2A Elite head were all sculpted and painted by me.
-That TheDomain symbol that generated a small key in the hand of the Elite: I just made up as I animated. I'll figure out its significance when I eventually make a part 2 :)
-The orange Spartan Recon I won from the competition doesn't have a silver visor printed on his helmet - so it just appears as black. Part of the reason I didn't have him jump out his packaging and attack the lads is because I count it as a rare misprint. I think it looks really cool.
-The Marine Sniper uses Kat's voice from Halo Reach.
-The Green Hazop Spartan's head has a bit of blu tack in its neck socket - I did this so his head would stand slightly higher on his neck.
-That flashbang the Hazop threw came with the Marine Sniper, so I guess you could say some time passed between shots and he looted her corpse.
-That bubble wrap was possibly the same bubble wrap that came in the toymation fest parcel.
-That Chonky spartan drawing is 100% Chonky Chief (confirmed).
-I didn't actually code my blindbag before I opened it - so I brainstormed multiple different scenarios on how the Covenant would fight (or ally with) the figure inside.
-The Prowler's turret makes the same noise as the Phaeston from Mass Effect 3.
-The fluff I use for explosion effects was harvested from a toy my dog savaged.
-The boxes reactor is both based on and uses sound effects from the reactors of High Charity in Halo 3.
-TheDomain named Abraham :)
-The final shot of the box exploding was actually the parcel that the prizes were sent me in.
Thanks for watching this animation 💜
I love rewatching this sometimes, would absolutely die for part 2 or another one
Thanks for making it
Where did you get the elites hands.
@@GreenandmeanFrom Destiny fallen captain figures 👍
@@sassycrocodile ok thanks
Glad to see you back! The sets are great as always, and I loved the uniqueness of the story, and the concept of seeing random sets all combined into one story is really cool! Great video and keep up the amazing work!
Chonky Chief. You mind telling me what your doing on that wall? 3:59
Legends always gets Remembered but Heroes Never Die.
Great to see your still making videos! Love these creative ones!
The way the grunts are actually respected by their team is kind of strange 😂
It's how I play the arbiter missions when grunts are your allies 😅
Don't worry, I'll abuse grunts in the future lmao
@@sassycrocodile 😂👍
@@sassycrocodileWhy….(proceeds to cry in grunt)
@@sassycrocodileThey are so cuddly, why you do that?
@@sassycrocodileWhy………..(cries more in grunt)
Dude.... This has to be one of the most clever ideas for Halo Mega Stop Motion that I have ever seen. Thanks for putting as much effort as you do into your animations.
YES, THANK YOU!!! I love how smooth and elegant the stop motion is. Must've taken a very long time so props to you :D
Once I got focused working on it - it actually came together surprisingly quickly.
Thank you 😁
That mini build for the boarding craft is SO ridiculously good - I absolutely love all the tiny details you added into this video. And how could I not mention that INSANE Active Camo transition. Brilliant stuff dude!
Such an unexpected premiere! It was incredible, perfect amount of action and comedy! Abraham is the GOAT
Lol fr abraham is amazing
That elite must have been incredibly competent he kept a grunt alive for the entire mission somehow.
This was awesome! The walk cycles are smooth, and are not too fast or jerky. The movement in general was nice and convincing, the characters really seemed to come alive. The subtitles fit extremely well, you did a great job on blending them with the body language and voice lines. I'm glad I could help!
And rest in piece you mail, there probably was some expensive stuff in there (the cyan Spartan) just for it to explode.
This is incredible even the appearance of the weapons and the covenant
My favorite so far. Really felt like a real halo scene but with mega with some of the humor.
You’re finally back yay😊
Absolutely amazing! The way you get attached to the unggoy (Abraham) is something not many stop motions can achieve, keep it up!
That was by far the most creative Stopmotion video I've ever seen! The animation was crazy great and seeing the packages to the figures and having those figures then show up is so cool! Amazing job on everything!!
What a cool animation! Having sets inside the Amazon Box come alive is so awesome. It reminds me of the movie Small Soldiers. Absolutely love this
Thanks dude! And I love that film, an absolute classic
@@sassycrocodile I meant Small Soldiers haha but I'm sure you're still thinking of the same flim.
@@johnathanhardman9368 I was 😂😂
I like how you used the sets you got from last toymation fest like the skiff, turret and the hero’s. Nice animation
Abraham an Kenny (idk i jus wanted to give the elite a name) are my favorite duo now
Wow. The small concept ships at the beginning are sooo accurate. I wish I had the amount of unique pieces like you. What an animation!
My favorite stopmotion!
This is so fricking meta! I love it! It is truly so fun to watch your new uploads.
This is the best unboxing video. Ever.
Of all time
I loved everything about this! Especially the custom prowler!
Amazing video! Your *definitely* one of my favorite stop motion TH-camrs!
The way the Elite took out that first Brute was Brute-al! I loved it
I keep rewatching this beucse I can't get enough of this animation!!!!
Thanks friend 😁 I appreciate it!
@@sassycrocodile this video is what is getting me back into mega construx halo after years of not getting involved in the community and collecting many thanks Mr. Crocodile.
DUDE!!!! This is awesome!! hope to see more animations from you this year
Absolutely fantastic! So many little details. Things like cutting the bubble wrap with the energy sword, and all the practical effects. And seeing the old sets and figures was really nostalgic! Also your walk/run cycles are still super smooth
HOLY HELL! This was absolutely SPECTACULAR! Amazing work 👍
And the one energy sword swing was smooth
well done this is a very good stop motion of halo 10 out of 10 great job
Dang, the whole concept of this stopmotion is so unique, pretty rad!
VERY well done. one of if not the best stop motion I have EVER seen!
I watched with my kids, and we enjoyed the story so much. Thank you, that's a big job done! 👍
Excellent work on this! The audio syncing and animation were both great!
Main reason I haven't done stop motion is I despise walk cycles. You did a great job there!
Perfection. Worth the wait, and the creative idea and setting!
I've rewatched this so many times and it has yet to get old. Great work!
I love the Custom models they look really nice!
this was awesome, I loved the paint jobs on the figures/guns too!
This was really fun to watch and it's really creative! I also love the grunts
It is always a treat to view your work! Sadly I am in a hurry right now but I will finish it later! I like the custom grunt masks and the "toy story" like idea. Great job!
Bravo!
Man i love it, from start to finish
Legit so cool!! it's been awhile since I've watched these kinds of videos, there was always just the same good ones, the great kings. Now there's a new king to the table.
Dude this is absoluteley amazing
Love how you added a tactical communication between the elite and grunt, how he gave covering fire!
This was amazing from beginning to end, a great and original concept executed perfectly.
This is so cute. I absolutely adore it. Really reminds me of the stop motions of old.
This is the kind of high quality Halo content I love supporting. Great work!
This is SO smooth. Nice job
and when the world needed him the most, he came back.
I cant explain how much I love this! But I can explain that you have yourself a new subscriber !
I'm geeking out over the custom Banished Prowler, that is amazing work right there
By the Prophets. I didn't know that your mail would make for such a badass Halo level. Awesome job! Loved the Covenant-focused perspective.
This video is just amazing, i come back here for insparation every few days, i wish i could animate like you! Maybe i will eventually but for now your my favorite animator!
Keep at it my friend! you're already well on your way 😁 I'm honoured to be an inspiration for you
Dude this was incredible
This is one of the most creative and entertaining things I’ve seen on TH-cam, well done! 🎉
I gotta say, this has to be one of the BEST animations I have ever seen!
Good to see you back man, I love your stopmotions.
This was super creative and really enjoyable!
Amazing just what a work of art
I love the way u make this!🎉
Absolutely legendary 😍
Awesome stop motion love the part when the elites shields went down and the jackal tried to cover him
This is mind blowing, it’s incredible.
Awesome man! Really loved this one!
This is so cool. Great work
A happy ending for an Unggoy, loved watching this
man, your stuff are amazing, glad see you post again, and my man the work is awesome, smooth animation and the lighting was on point, just keep it up.
That was awesome lol takes me back to my childhood
This was amazing!
The animation was smooth on the figures and they had real personality with the Elite issuing orders and caring for the Unggoy.
The effects were great too, especially love the attention to the weapon fire and that stunning cloaking animation.
This is the most creative, detailed, and overall well-done stop-motion production I have ever seen. Subscribed.
Wildly creative and smooth brutha
Amazing work! The idea was funny and very creative! :)
Nice stop motion I enjoyed it, the cardboard set up was amazing and the animation especially the customs.
MY BOY IS BACK... LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Anyway so excited you're still alive my man's, so glad you're still animating and bro whenever I watch your animations they get better every time. Keep animating dude I love it.
This is amazing , I love your content and it’s good to see your still making awesome vids
Awesome animation!
That’s genius, using sticky tacks to help the figures stand
Cool Video with funny spezial effects.
Big greetings from Vienna/Austria
Nice prowler custom. Makes me want to buy the skiff intercept even more
Do it! Raku 92 made it and has instructions on his Instagram. There's a link in the description
I really appreciate the Halo 1 death animation you threw in there with the blue Spartan, amazing animation all around. Every detail was filmmaking perfection 🙌
Really smooth animation
This is such a creative idea! I love the animation itself as usual with you but I think the idea itself is really cool!
Thank you so much 😁 I hope to do more videos like this in the future. They're quick to make, and I can make them if ever I get a sizable haul of mega
I like how creative this is.
Bro this is like the 4th time I've watched this amazing stop motion!
That was so creative, I love it!
This was an amazing video dude. Really interesting concept as well. Everything about it was perfect. The animation, the sound design, the use of in game dialogue, all very well executed. Awesome video man
That was absolutely beautiful, I loved the friendship between the grunt and the elite
What can i even say? One of the best stop motion animators in the whole internet!!
Keep it up!
I love how the elite is nice to the grunt
Also the masks of the grunts are great!👍👏
Muy buena animación, de las mejores que he visto
Amazing job very creative 👏
Those costumes are amazing
The animation is so smooth
