$30 for 4 figures and the warthog is a great price. The single figures are $5 each so that's $20 alone. so the warthog is only $10 if you break it down. The 4 pack figures are $15 and that would make the hog $15. So either way, you get a great new hog cheap. The scalpers are going to ruin it for everyone though. The same logic applies to the Recon Getaway set. it has 4 figures and a mongoose for $15. The Mongoose is practically free. think about it
Yes, that's true. MCX prices are great for this wave
Well, that until the set retires and the price skyrockets to like $50-60 range and beyond
@@RudeAndObscene so true. The 10th anniversary warthog was $30 at release. Then the price dropped to $16 after a month. Now it's over $40. Better get it now if possible. 2 of 3 targets in my area had 3 rally hogs on the shelf. I grabbed 1 from each store. A week later the last two are still there. This new hog us beautiful. It's the 4th design and Im hopping for other colors to appear
Yes it's a very beautiful hog. I got 3 and like you. I'm hoping for different colors.
@@Mighty-VizioN Wait the 10 years warthog is rare ? My target has like 5
finally they are making sets again!
Indeed they are. They have been for awhile, but this is our first proper wave of sets since the 10th anniv stuff
What do you mean
They have lots of sets I mean new ones too
@@outlander_4264 I think the problem is distribution. I see new Pokemon sets everywhere. But halo sets are few and mostly sell out quickly. New COD sets are rare. And MOTU are hard to find as well. Those magnext sets are not very interesting, but Target seem to always have them. GOT sets are easy to get though but nothing new. And they are on sale at target. 50% off. They will soon be at discount stores.
I'm surprised that Mattel doesn't have an online store. Online shops like Amazon, Walmart, Target, and eBay are full of scalper's. Prices are usually double the MSRP.
I just got this set love how they added the numbers on the bags so no one gets confused mega construx did good
Yes, I built only one set made before they did that and it was a bit of a pain
I think the elbow point is just to stop the joints from extending backwards past straight
Jacob Dennison same
yeah, it's so our heroes don't break their arm!
@@chipssdubbo their neck can go backwards lo
Your assumption is correct
Great underrated channel. Hopefully buying the SDCC set tomorrow will slightly offset my sadness at lack of Mega Bloks distribution in the UK...
Same
I'll be attempting to get one of those myself. Looks like a super interesting set
"Sleek" you say, so kinda like a puma 😂
Anybody still watching red vs blue in 2020?
Me :(
Never seen any of it
Demarcation Media oh man dude you got to
*What in Sam Hill is a puma?*
*Yer makin’ sh*t up!*
Will Benson me
Love it! Looks like a fantastic set!
Side note, damn man! You're just chilling with a hyperextended thumb!
Haha yes, I was gifted with a thumb joint that can bend backward. XD
@@DemarcationMedia same
@@DemarcationMedia I have that too
This and the snowhog are my favorite new-age brick hogs.
I love how they are always experimenting with suspension, and all the hogs have their unique systems.
This is, of course the best system so far, and the shape of the vehicle is very satisfying.
I agree with that for sure!
I don’t understand it’s just a toy you you can perfect it i’m just glad they made a new marine it looks awesome
Glad to know I’m not the only one who checks the box to make sure I got everything!
You never know when Mega might make a mistake and leave out a bag or two--it happens!
The jackals
Oh god
Look how they massacred my boy
How they look like actual classic jackals now
Ian Gerhart, Nah. The original jackal is close to the original. These things cross into the uncanny valley.
@@matthewyanik8400 how?
@Ian Gerhart, these jackals lack any coloring on them which means they can’t have the texture the original ones had, and their general body formation is just off.
@@matthewyanik8400 1: they are mega blox toys
2: how is the body formation off
Honestly the jackals look so amazing to me! I love the design and their Mohawk is kinda cute🤣 and honestly I’m confused about master chiefs shoulder pads. They are from reach and not from the halo infinite trailer and pictures. Not bad just odd to me
Mega used the Reach pads because it was the closest armor piece to what the new game looks like. It's very close. Missing a tiny bit of armor, but at that scale, total accuracy is not possible
Demarcation Media ok I actually didn’t know that! Btw I love your videos! I like the detailed descriptions on each section of characters and sets! Hope I can find some! They are always sold out. And in all honesty the old reach assault rifle hold true to the original because it was big and clunky in the game but the new version looks to be more sleek so mega really hold true to their molds and creations.
@@jamB2007 Thanks! I'd suggest preordering some of the sets if you can't find any near you
that marine has seen some stuff...
Flood perhaps...
As to the temporary pieces, Mega used to have them regularly, but were really bright colors. At least now they are Earth colors so you can just add them to terrain.
I just got it, and it's also my second warthog! Thank you for the review you gave me a push to finally stop being lazy and actually build the thing. 👍
Eyy nice!
3:56
That really caught me off guard, I didnt expect you to say *U G L Y* like that or at all hah
Hahahaha it's true though
@@DemarcationMedia yeah well, it's just how you said it, it's pretty great 😂
I love the new marines. Honestly I think its about time they were updated. What I really want to see is a slightly taller spartan body. If they implement a waist spacer system into the figures we could even see properly scaled brutes in mega bloks form
A spacer might help some, thought the arms would end up looking off I think
Thanks you made asking what i want for christmas ez...
I like the post that the turret is mounted on. It looks nice, and it doesn’t have 2 extra points of accidental articulation which make it bend and turn in really bad ways.
That was the one issue I had with the Arctic CTF hog: that gun would bend all over the place. This new design is perfect
Halo Mega Construx have always intrest me but I've never committed to getting any of them. Though that's about to change with the halo infinite sets, I'll probably get most if not all of them lol.
It's one of the best waves in years
the scalpers on this set are abundant
So are the sales though, some places have sold this for $5
@@DemarcationMedia I'm gonna have to check my target they always have some sets for 50 percent off
@@DemarcationMedia I seen it for 6$ on the Walmart website last night but didn't believe it
thank you for putting the left over pieces. I’m trying to make something but I don’t know if the warthog have any extra pieces
this set was my first ever real set from mega, its just so good to me
It's a perfect starter set!
Call me crazy, but I think the Jackals are kinda cute. Their little tufts of hair just say something to me.
XD XD I can sorta see that
the pointy elbows are there to make sure the arm doesn't bend backwards I think
most mega construx figures have something like the pointy elbow that you pointed out, but instead sometimes it'll be a slight extension to the armor like in spartans and stuff.
but if the lower arm is unarmored it'll have the pointy elbow
Haha it looks slightly odd on the unarmored arms XD
I would kill for this set, or the sandbox set lmao
Just keep an eye out in stores
@@DemarcationMedia yeah he'll need a good eye out on who to kill
@@terischannel lmao, also I did manage to get this set but not the sandbox one lmao
@@stix2642 lol cool
i just got the set (today’s my birthday) and guess what?, the piece to attach the gun to the vehicle broke in the bag, i go to customer service, it doesnt work, try the customer service number, their closed sat-sunday. :(
They should be up and running now
@@DemarcationMedia yea but i have school
Oooooh, that removable ammo counter on the AR is super interesting, MEGA never really do anything that isn't game-accurate with their Halo sets (apart from the alternate builds obv) and I don't think we've ever seen customizable halo weapon molds, so safe bet we're getting somewhat customizable weapons in infinite I guess?
Edit: I've just realised we did get customization for Halo 5s sets, so not exactly new for MEGA but still interesting.
We haven't gotten a removable ammo counter. They just added a rail on the older ones and that was that
@@DemarcationMedia thought so, thanks for the clarification.
I feel bad because your content is pretty good and some mega construx sets aren’t cheap yet you get loads of views but barley any of them are subscribed. At least you are popping in the recommendation bar though so hopefully you will get more views and subscribers especially with halo infinite hype. Keep up the good work!
Oh, Imma just keep doing my thing and people will find the videos when they find 'em
I’d love a real life Warthog. Like a hybrid one or Tesla style internals. I mean the vehicle in game goes from slow to fast real quick like Tesla
I believe there is a real life Warthog. I don't know how it operates, but I've seen photos of it
Warthogs have hydrogen engines which suck in present day
The cybertruck reminds me of ce warthog
[vic708] yea but cybertruck is ugly.
Lean Mean Green Bean Machine true that’s why we would use an upgraded Tesla battery
Happy to help👍
This video woulda been a heck of a lot later without your help.
@@DemarcationMedia let me know if you need any of the newer sets. I've got the banshee, defense point showdown, and the MC vs Brute pack in my area.
@@RPGX400 Will do
I personally don’t mind the taller marine cause I love customizing these little dudes
They have a ton of options now which is great
I have a question.
Is this warthog is the same color as last year's scorpion?
I'm not sure, as I don't have the Scorpion. My guess though is yes
Yes, and that classic looking scorpion was awesome. Same with last year's hog
just asking since alot of these sets in the eu area are expensive af and big bad toy store seems cheap is it a safe website would be nice to know
Big Bad Toy Store is a fantastic site. I've ordered from there before and have had a firsthand view of their customer service thanks to Bandai's cruddy QC. BBTS fixed everything super quick. Can't recommend them more
i was fubared out of the small piece of the ammo counter for that AR in that set
That piece is very easy to lose
I just order my set 🙏I’m hyped
New challenge: Take a shot every time homeboy says "sleeker"!!
Hahaha, I kid, I kid. The review was excellent, and definitely the review that is pushing me towards purchasing one for my own!
Maybe I should rename the video to just Sleeker XD
I got this set for my birthday and i have a problem that the suspension is really weak and and the back keeps dropping like it’s a low rider, does that happen to you or did i do something wrong
I don't have that issue. Did you put the rubber bands on correctly?
Great review! Also the Marines have pointy elbows so the arm can't bend the wrong way, that's the problem the Assassin's Creed line had
Ah, yes, that makes sense.
Last time I owned a set from this company was the huge McLaren F1 car. They were still called 'Mega Bloks' back then. I haven't bought anything from them since... Well I can't even remember but it was like 15+ years ago. I always remember the brick quality being terrible lol.
But I'm going to bite the bullet and buy this set. It just looks too good to pass on so I hope it's worth it!
Oh heck yes it's worth it. You're way overdue to get a new set at this point
@@DemarcationMedia indeed I am... Well, I pre-ordered one today from my local store. Now I've just got to wait
Love the hog!
It's a nice one
The single plate with the print is supposed to represent a Radio along with the cord.
Why is the radio mounted on the roof?
The jackals look like a mixture of a chicken, and that derpy whinne the Pooh meme
XD You aren't wrong
Those are Jackel free-booters.
I’m slowly wanting to get halo sets now since they are getting more interesting
They get better and better every year
I love the fact that he doesnt point out that the seat designs are completely new😂😂
I have too few warthogs to have the seat stand out to me XD
Never understood why they couldn't make Spartans taller
When I had a lot of extra pieces I thought I did do a mistake and I did
The new armour is like the one from halo ce anniversary
In many ways, yes. A fusion of the CE and H2/3 armor
Yes so true
I got 3 of them for 46$ the warthog the wasp set and the choper set did i get a good deal?
You did indeed!
@DemarcationMedia daym i never regret your reviews. You got a sub man it's hard to find any halo sets on asia😖
Thank you for the support! It's hard to get Mega in general. You can get figures pretty easy from k11mall on ebay though
@DemarcationMedia eBay expensive asf the hog cost around 60$
Assumtion for halo infinite, THERE WILL BE BOATS!?!?!
We'll have to wait and see I suppose
Man! So many cool looking sets! Where to start?
Mongoose is probably the best place to start
this set good for army building warthogs and you get a lot of jackals
Personally I prefer the Marines being larger because now I can actually use them alongside CoD figures without them being out-of-scale. I wish Mega would do this with all of their Halo figures, and I wish they'd done it from the beginning.
The Spartans just need to be bigger, is all
@LORD FALCON Not as big as you want. Not Elites hunter sized. No. Just so Spartans and Marines are the same height again. However, MCX employees have stated this will not happen. So we needa work with it
@@DemarcationMedia They do, yes. Honestly though, with the way MEGA constantly pumps out new molds for Halo as fast as we change car oil, it shouldn't be too hard. I hope they also fix the Brutes as well. The Elites I don't mind, since extending their leg joints to their best angle can make them taller than even COD figures.
@@niklase.4850 The reason they aren't changing the Spartans at all is because it would utterly ruin all the progress they've made with changeable armor and they would have to start all over again.
@@DemarcationMedia True, but they have made entire lines of figures obsolete before. Look at the dozens of new molds that were shelved before their season was even up, when new-articulation figures came out. Right now, they're making the "new" leg armor for marines obsolete with this new line. Halo is an ever-changing toy line. If they thought it would make more money, I'm sure Mega wouldn't hesitate.
I just got this im so hyped
Great Video!
See you today on Live Stream!
just got a sub brotha. this will be my fourth Warthog set and I can't wait to have it arrive on Friday. the other three Warthog sets I have are the CTF Artic, 10th your anniversary, and Sgt. Forge Gauss hog.
This set to me looks like the 10th anniv Hog and the Forgehog mashed into one vehicle
Demarcation Media were you able to get a set of the exclusive master chief SDCC set? i had to pay more than I wanted to pay on ebay. if you were able to get one, I know that your subers would love a review of the set.
@@sightlessblood4860 Indeed I did get the SDCC set! It was a close shave though. I will be reviewing it as soon as it arrives
Demarcation Media were you able to get it on the legit Mattel site or did you have to go through extemporaneous means?
@@sightlessblood4860 Through the legit Mattel site. I'm honestly shocked I got through in time, but I did.
I am from Ecuador as I do to buy it and on what day it arrives. If the product is from another country, will it arrive in good condition?
Depends on the site you order from
Still don’t quite understand why the jackal shield mold is so small? Other than that this set looks great!
That's how it's always been. Though I think the Jackals used to be slightly smaller
I got all the sets yesterday cause my local target had them
Lol
So weird that the turret looks like old games but in the demo it's a halo five warthog turret
MCX sets aren't always 100% accurate
Haven't seen anyone mention this, but you got the piece that goes over the pelvis piece backwards. The armour plate should be at the back, not at the front like you've done it
For which fig?
@@DemarcationMedia the marine
@@imlewishehe No, the instructions show the armor plate on the front
@@DemarcationMedia huh, nevermind then I guess. It looks so odd with it at the front because of the shape of it
@@imlewishehe It does look odd because all the past Marines have the larger part of the armor on the back. I thought it was wrong at first too
How much did it cost
30 bucks usd
Noice
Can’t fucking get the front wheels to fit under the grill wtf
I think that you had the hip armor backwards I think that plate is for the back
No indeed. The plate goes on the front.
Idk why but my favorite master chief out of all the games is halo 4 and 5 idk y it just fits him more 😎
I agree. H4 and H5 Chief are the definitive versions of Chief for me
Yup
4.00 yes u have. Youve looked in the meer havent u
$30, right? Also, did you have anyluck with the SDCC MCC?
$30 is retail for this set, yes. And yes, I did have luck with the SDCC set. There will be a review once it ships to me
that's a sexy warthog. too bad I already have the 10th anniversary one.
It's worth getting even if you have the 10th anniv hog.
Same
Jackles do be looking thick
Thick? XD
Where do you get series 12 because it only has the blind bags and a few drop pods
Aside from online stores, Target and Walmart should be stocking the new sets within the next few months
Demarcation Media ok thanks and by the way love your channel
Man i really hope mcx will get back on Polish market bc here we haven't got any sets since 2013 :(
Mega says they're working on distribution so there is still hope yet
Ooooooooohhhhhh yesss thats great im hyped thx for the news :)
Only thing i hate about all jackel makes are their shields....why are they so small? The friggin jacks hide behind them so make them atleast half their size not a forth gosh dang
They are a tad small. I actually talk about that in my recent haul video
@@DemarcationMedia i just hope they try to change it...sometime
It's a fair price I think it's worth about 50$ but MEGA don't make it that expensive
It's a solid set for sure.
Yeah the marines really aren't that bad it's a very small difference
Indeed. It's definitely workable
If i’m not mistaken they reused the front of the mk IV piece
Indeed they did
I bougth one and it ssid in the box includes ulc, what does that mean?
Probably means you got one of the sets that has a code for Halo Infinite itself. It gives you a special coating for armor in game
@@DemarcationMedia Oh thanks
I have it and I love it
Those are lites on the side of Master Chief's helmet.
Yep
thanks for doing this review
i will have to buy it and build it to give a fair final thought but personally i don't like this new warthog
its such a dramatic change from the previous builds, something about it feels off.
personally i think it looks to blocky and brick based..almost like a lego designed warthog
I don't have the 10th Anniv hog but to me, that one looks blocky. Definitely give it a shot. The build is the most fun MCX set I've done yet
When I got the new marines I just replaced there legs with black old legs and used the delta series as the pants
I meant delta series marines pants
That's not a bad idea.
Mine was missing numerous pieces.
Contact customer service. They'll replace all the missing parts
The only thing i don't like about this set is the inclusion of Master Chief. Characters like him should be single buys. If you buy multiple sets you will have a lot of Master chief characters. Just like the MOTU wind raiders. I now have 7 He-man and Skeletor figures. I guess I just have a lot of extra parts to make customs with.
Unavoidable for a toy company. Lego does the same thing. Everyone wants to be able to get the main character
@@DemarcationMedia I guess those sets that come with extra armor and heads are good for this reason. I need to learn how to mold custom Heads. MOTU characters are a good base for any cartoon character. Like the Thundercats, or Silverhawks.
really the new master chief figure is more of a classic design
and plus all the marines are gonna get merced by the covenant anyways so hight won't matter
He is. Kind of a mix of all the armors
It was kinda dumb of them make it 2 in 1 cause you gotta take the entire the apart just to make it a boat.Id proffer the worthog. And they couldve made the boat its seperate set but i see what they were going for.
The goal is to make the set more engaging, so that's why they made it 2-in-1
@@DemarcationMedia yeah also cant wait for halo infinite!
Where do people buy this, I am getting it for $16.99 on Amazon.com
Walmart and Target seem to be the main places, but Amazon's price is quite good
Am I the only one that thinks the halo 2/3/6 helment looks kinda skinny in mega blocks from
It does look a bit skinny.
Jokes on u I have small fingers and I don’t live in a house 😉 8:34
Damn im getting the mongoose one
Mongoose set is an awesome army builder. Plus it has the more interesting marines
@@DemarcationMedia i was trying to get the warthog rally with it but someone got it before me sadly
edit: Im just imagining them both together as a set. Make a video about both tho
Hahaha yes those jackles are derpy asf
Derpy as they come
cool the jackals look normal and not like a stupid velociraptor human thing
Haha as normal as Jackals can ever look
Dónde lo conseguíste
Un tipo lo consiguió de Target para mí.
Really hate how the marine can't drive
Hm? He can...
I managed to fix it by moving the driver seat slightly
New jackals lookin ugly. But it is accurate
this was my first set from megabloks its a pain build unlike lego
It's a little more difficult
You’re just gonna skip over that brick built turret?
What about it? It's fairly similar to all other Warthog turrets
Demarcation Media no way dude. I saw a 3x1 tile on the side. I didn’t get a fair look at it but it’s certainly not the standard tubing used in making the turret stock.
@@Atriox2004 Yea, the turret base is a little different. More bricks. Not sure if it's an improvement or not though. Either way, it seemed a minor detail
Demarcation Media it was one of the first things I noticed. Mega has been making turrets the same way pretty much from the beginning so it was interesting to see. As someone who has or has seen most the Warthogs, I would have liked to see it up closer since I probably won’t be able to find this in stores until Autumn.
@@Atriox2004 Ah, yes, good point. As I said, I've only ever built one other hog which was the Arctic one
That’s true chief should be the tallest because he could handle anything not marines 👿 13:00
I liked it and did not cause one of the covenants had 2 left legs and i was like😑
Ah dang. Contact customer service about it
i got it today
