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

REACH ERA GRUNT MOLD GANG

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! ☮

I love seeing old and new figure comparisons

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.

Mega bloks because nostalgia

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

Mega bloks to much good memories 😂

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

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

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

Amazing video! Also the elite at 10:07 was a halo 3 elite

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

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.

Next episode has gotta cover ODSTs and Hunters!

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.

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

Awsome stuff man

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

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

Buen video de halo me emocionado mucho ver tus videos

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

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.

Great series, keep it going

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

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

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

good video

Babe wake up, Domain dropped another BANGER

All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous

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

Love ya bro!

I wish that mega made a lot more halo sets the ones we have are amazing but theres not enough

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

Please do more!

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.

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

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

Iconic

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.

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

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

Bro, mega blocks for the win

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

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

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

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

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

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?

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

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

9:48 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.

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

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

What is the newest halo Lego set in 2024

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

Ye

If you would like to see some of my flood customs, I can show you them over email

CONFESSION: i know about the helmets not being the same color as the metallic green chest.... BUT I AM ABLE TO UNSEE IT, AND IGNORE IT SOMEHOW :O

Is beatliful

Never heard an American call it a loft

Ya mudda buys you mega blocks insteada legoos

Mesa lobe this

The original ones are a million times better

💕💕💕👍👍👍😊

Aren’t they the same company?

Day one of commenting wort wort wort

You forgot the hunters!

Why is the brute, albino. lol And the new elite's armor is too bright.
