My favorite was seeing the toys r us and target halo displays along with a full shelf. It'd be wonderful if we could see that again in the future

I remember as a kid, going to the toy aisle with my mom at walmart, and seeing the shelves stocked and overflooded with Halo, Call of Duty, TMNT, Destiny you name it.

Man I miss seeing MEGA at walmart or any where for that matter and I hate having to buy them online now thanks for addressing this I appreciate it.

One great thing with Mega historically was that if you had a quality issues, they would fix it. Send you a replacement part or figure. I once had a disappointing visor print on a master chief figure. I filled out the form, was contacted by someone asking what was wrong. I explained the set was discontinued and I didn't keep my receipt because I never had an issue before. I only requested a new head piece but they sent me an entire new figure.

I hope they put a limit on how many fan vote sets you can buy

I remember my mom telling me (back when she worked at walmart) that they stopped bringing in Mega (namely the blind bags and heroes) because of rampant theft.

It's really strange that Mega revealed a huge wave last year, and ended up only seeing a quarter of it at the most in stores. Everything else was put online and immediately jumped in price because there was no other place to get them. Especially the haunted helmet hero series. They flat out never released in my area along with most places. I really hope they are still producing them so they eventually hit shelves, but it seems like most stores have stopped leaving room on their shelves because they simply aren't getting the shipments either. Halo merchandise is in big trouble and I hope these companies including Mattel figure out how to get their product out and win the trust of retailers again.

Glad you gave all of us smaller channels and other people in the community a chance to have a voice that will be more likely to be seen, love the video and I really hope things improve with the company, I have always loved mega and will continue to collect them, even with the problems the company is having

This is the video that the community needs. I hope Mattel and Mega see this and feel inspired to change. Thank you for using your platform to present a united community voice!

9:31 I could only speak from Experience: The reason why all Target in my city doesn't carry toys like Mega ( I used to see them in Walgreens as well( is because of heavy loss due to people stealing. I would at some point go to stores and see a lot of scattered open bags and witness few that have grab a box of Halo Heroes and walk out of the store without getting stopped. this issues might be small for big box store like Target but still it is a loss. So I have to travel up to 50-60 miles via public transportation since I don't have a car hoping that a Target out of town have the Heroes set on a

HE HAS A BEARD (jk nice hair dude 😅 for me I love it and hate it cause where I’m at I never find anything no new blind bags or new sets it’s masking really a bit mad)

I think it's a huge shame how badly mega contrux as a whole is being handled. If Mattel or Mega actually cared about it's fans we wouldn't be in this terrible spot of scalpers, no stock in stores, and in my opinion unexciting sets. I used to go crazy when I was younger and saw all they had to offer in stores you could build a whole war with what they had. Covenant vehicles, battlescapes, variety of UNSC as a whole, it was all widely available. Now they say a new set is getting released and I'm like well probably won't be able to get that for a fair price in a reasonable time frame. They really are making long time fans lose interest because it's just to hard to get sets. Don't even get me started on how they just abandon other great lines like COD or Destiny as is literally pains me. What a shame.

availability can be taken to account of how popular halo is. back in early 2010s youd see sets every where considering it was at halo was at its peak. now its kinda of been in a steady down fall making sets appear less sadly

For me, my local Walmart doesn’t sell halo mega and my local target has a bunch of Pokémon and only the Recon getaway set and the Razorback blitz sets. They have the Hornet now but no Halo heroes and the blind bags. It kinda sucks. Every time I go to target with my mom, I always go check the Mega shelf.

Yeah you make a great point about the “just send more sets” stores only order the sets from Mattel and some sets don’t even get released if they don’t have enough orders, example of that huge troop red vs blue set that was canceled because toys r us went bankrupt and they had no other orders

I haven’t bought megabloks since around 2012. Not sure why this is in my feed but it’s nostalgic but also sad to see such a great company that made my child hood is going through tough times. I still remember my mom taking me to get 2 sets of my choice all the way back in 2009. Before all that those pirates of the Caribbean sets were all I played with as a kid and imagine my joy when I learned halo, my favorite franchise ever was now getting their own sets

Great video!! I totally agree with pretty much everything you said, and I have a lot to add. I thought about just writing it all in a comment, but then I realized it would be longer then war and peace 😂, so I’m just gonna make a video to sort of add on as an expansion pack to this video. That might of been a super cheap plug for my channel but whatever 😂. Also, thanks for featuring my clip in the video!!!

glad to see small mega construx creators being mention and having a voice on daily life problems of trying to find a new set or any set in general.

Great video and insights Zee! I missed the deadline on submitting my video for this but the community did an outstanding job here 🙏

I live in the uk, I can’t tell you how hard it is to get Halo mega over here, I have a pretty nice collection, but I’m missing so many new sets that are just impossible to get over here, we don’t even have halo heroes or blind bags over here

Very awesome video! I was glad to hear everyone’s voices on the state of MEGA and I agree 100% with all of them. The distribution for me is awesome but I can feel the pain with everyone else who’s having problems with their areas not getting the distribution and it sucks but it’ll get better overtime. Also I agree with everyone saying they need to bring back old themes somewhat like remastering the old themes to pretty much bring back that old “nostalgia” feeling. But all n all good video Demarcation keep up the great content and thanks for bringing up this very important topic!

Thanks Demarcation from Halo Jon (Mega Chief Construx Creator). You voiced everyone’s concern in a constructive manor and you put a positive spin on the situation.

I have been collecting Mega Halo since 2014 and the difference in distribution nowadays is crazy. I remember Target, Toys R Us and Walmart had a really big Mega section full of different brands like Assassin's Creed, Destiny, Call of Duty, Halo, etc. And even online had a good amount too. Now the toys r us is closed in my area, Walmart stopped having Mega Halo, and Target has a very tiny shelf space. It used to be so easy getting hands on sets and right now it's almost impossible. I can't find even Halo Heroes Series 16 or their blind bags. One thing I personally don't like is how they keep announcing new sets but the ones they announced the previous time haven't even been found or released yet. It would be nice to have a physical or online Mega Store just to buy stuff more easier, so hopefully Mattel Creations is good. Despite all the problems, I'm still 100% loyal to Mega and I'll still keep on hunting for all the new stuff even if it takes me months at a time lol

Awesome discussion, watching you since 2020 during pandemic. Keep it up man! Hope Mega will heard their fans and communities like theses.

Watching this today. I love your content! It's the best Mega Halo channel. Thank you for your hard work. I just got into collecting them (I only had a SDCC figure they gifted in a convention almost 10 years ago). I bought a set and some blind bags and there are some sets in stores, but Halo is almost non-existant in the majority of stores (except for the Jazwares Halo figs). I get the feeling the Community Voted set in 2024 might be the last we see of Halo... Unless the franchise is revitalized, I doubt the stores will go out of their way to buy more (e.g. re-release ODST drop pods weren't bought by stores and we're never getting them again). Unless Mattel decides to finally start selling all their Halo line on their online shop, which is quite unlikely. Hope you're doing great!

I live in the greater Cincinnati area. My target has only had the razorback since Christmas. Walmart had that small run of the ODST and red team warthog, now, nothing. My local Meijer finally clearanced the last of the Infinite sets. I've mostly been buying online but yeah it's getting spotty again. I really hope that Mattel creations can succeed

I got into Halo when I was pretty young, 3 being my first game. And, it just so happened to be that I really loved toys. So imagine my excitement when I walked into Toys’R’Us with my parents, walked into the Lego Aisle and saw a small box of a Scout Spartan and EOD Spartan fighting off The Flood. My jaw dropped and I immediately fell in love. Lego took a backseat if I couldn’t find any Mega sets, but back then, they were more than plentiful. It does suck that these bad boys are getting more and more scarce. And it seems that Lego might be having a similar problem. I remember when they had those large, adjustable, and highly articulate Lego figures. (Primarily the Death Trooper, Range Trooper, Etc.) Those things were seriously a solid series of figures, and last time I went back to Walmart, they were nowhere to be seen. Star Wars sets for miles, Mando, Andor, etc, but none of the big ones. The magic of going into the Toy Aisle and seeing that one set that just stood out to you is slowly slipping away. Last I heard, Macy’s (or some other big brand) was trying to bring Toys’R’Us back. I hope to god that I’ll be able to relive a part of that childlike wonder one day. A boy can dream.

thought about getting into the hobby 3 years ago. I saw the prices in store and couldnt afford it. I thought about it last year. I saw everything was sold by scalpers for up 3x the price and decided its never going to happen. Its like graphics cards and warhammer right now, the companies are only manufacturing enough to satisfy a percentage of the demand, and this means no storage requirements.

I’m just getting back into mega it’s been like 6 or so years and I’m no quite in the loop so this has helped I would like to shed some life on mega though because the figures printing sets designs and overall quality is amazing since then and 6 years ago they were no talking to fans and collaborating with community members and I am happy that they do these things. I definitely understand the frustration with distribution issues and that stuff but I do have faith that mega will come back stronger and thank you for this video because now I know what’s going on.

Well I'm glad to hear you don't think mega is dying. Here in Canada, at least it has some stuff on shelves at Walmart. After my little guy started becoming recently interested in mega's pokemon line and doing a bit of research to learn that their brick quality is vastly improved since I was a kid, I just bought the Pikachu beach and togepi pokeball sets for me and my son to put together and I was absolutely pleased with the quality and content of those two. Last thing I wanted to hear was mega was dying lol. Now I wish they would expand out to new or revist old themes with their new quality and minifigs. Dragons and their oldest stuff I had as a kid would be amazing with their new bricks and minifigs. Rant done, great vid!

Mega is killing it with Masters of the Universe. My only complaint is that there is only a few new sets produced per year. I am currently waiting for the Battle for Eternia 2 set to be available.

No halo mega construx in walmarts where i live, but there were some in a walmart in Butte, Montana. Where I live you could find some halo heroes in target, but they always seem to be understocked. If you want halo figures, fred myers seem to be on e of the best stockers, i have been getting all of the new figures there, as in all of the blind bags, halo heroes, and the vehicle sets.

Content is great, getting brand new and fan requested content is amazing But it's hard for fans to enjoy the content when there are fundamental issues with the main structure, it's easy to show a flashy Spartan but when people can't enjoy the basic product, that flashy content can't be enjoyed as intended I was talking about Halo infinite above^ kinda weird how mega and infinite are on the same page, looks great, looks like it's getting better, major issues on the actual product management Desync, distribution and so on (Note to return to 15:48)

Hope Mega will, little by little find a solution to be able to supply their products around the globe. Might take some time but it will help fans outside US. Its been kinda getting hard to get sets since the pandemic and its not always good to be relying on Ebay just to get Mega stuff which costs alot and having risks not getting what you order..

Great video!!! I love the online store!!!! People not buying the product from Target and Walmart is definitely why they took it off the shelf.

Fantastic video! You sir have earned a sub. As much as I like Lego, I would really like to see Mega build itself to be a viable competitor especially due to tackling mature themes and licenses. Cant wait until the Elephant, Scorpion and especially the Falcon comes back in stock!

I only just found a mega construx set in a toy shop here in Australia late last year for the first time in probably close to 3 or 4 years. Every main stores like big w, target and Kmart have just stopped selling mega construx. I used to love collecting the 5 or later 4 man call of duty battle packs because they were way cheaper than Lego but the over all quality was about the same. I can only hope that they start doing that again

Man even 12 months ago it was so much easier to collect. I remember I started March of last year, and within a few months I had the pelican, 2 warthogs, 2 razorbacks, some brute choppers and banshees. Flash to today where the first new set I’ve seen on shelf in months is the hornet (grabbed 3). Hoping it gets better soon.

I agree that they need to make more enemy figures. There are so many Banished ranks that Mega needs to make. Grunt Ultra, Elite Enforcer and Spec Ops, Jackal Raider and Skirmisher, Brute Sniper and berserker. I also hope we will get the Skimmers and some Blue Hunters.

love your videos and all the help you give out on the old reddit. im sad to say ive stopped collecting mega for the time being, being a brit the availability is shocking. keep up the good work.

It was an honor to appear in this video. As one of the most infamous MCX critics, I would have done myself a deservice to not take part in this. there is a few other things I wanted to mention but I wanted to use my time in the video to focus on what I felt like is the biggest issue that most dont seem to bring up which is the content it self.

I know that distribution is the largest problem as of now but one thing I haven’t seen much discussion on is the rampant theft in stores. My target JUST stocked the new hornet set but a box had already been broken open, figures were gone and I’ve seen lots of open blind bags, helmet set’s and halo heroes packages left behind by thieves. Target seems to make no effort in combating the problem either, but I would think this would effect whether they are willing to keep stocking the product if they are losing a significant amount of money to theft. I know nobody wants to see Mega locked up behind cabinets but id much rather have that than them not carry any at all. Its a shame to walk down the aisle and see packages torn open.

I bought a single mega construx halo set, first mega set I acquired in over 20 years, and the marine figure included in the set had 4 parts that were faulty on it, one hand was warped and wouldn't clip onto things properly, another hand was loose and easily fell out of the arm socket, one of the feet had a chunk of plastic melted inside the anti-stud so I couldn't connect it to studs properly, and the pelvis area had an extremely loose connection to the torso. Glad I got the set for 60% off atleast lol

I think if mega wants to expand the number of IPs it gotta up its marketing and lose its reputation as a knock off lego. Like when they anounced the witcher set all the comments were just bashing it calling it a great value lego I do wish they would return to the aliens ip that would be peak

As a long time collector, and a big time collector (My 2 shelving units are entirely Halo sans some board games/ all the Halo books (edit: and the Lego NASA line) I haven’t really collected in maybe 2 years since everything is either extremely hard to get even on Amazon, or I go to the store and see 10 Forward Unto Dawns after Christmas. It’s really sad, because I’d buy a lot more stuff if I could, but alas; shelf space and availability aren’t very high these days. At least it wasn’t my Lego mishap where a third of a 2500 part set was missing.

Honestly I want more Covenant, less UNSC sets and definitely less Spartans. Wasn't the Covenant supposed to outnumber the UNSC, and aren't Spartans supposed to be rare and awesome? One less Spartan figure is extra space in a set for everything between a Grunt to a Hunter. Also ordering a set sounds far better than what we currently have since scalpers can't monopolize the sets under their disgusting paws, and if you want to buy that specific set that has four grunts in it ten times to build an army, you can without taking those figures away from others

I will sharply disagree with the "content" thing. From the clips you showed off in the middle of the video, at least two other guys also mentioned it; quoting, "you go to their website and there are only like three or four themes to choose from...". For comparison, I still quite vividly remember the year 2016 when, I believe, they peaked in (not only) this concern. Back then, their 'Halo' and 'Call of Duty' lines, a.k.a. the biggest money-makers, were already well-established and in a full swing, so to speak. 'Call of Duty' has unfortunately been gone from Mega's roster since 2021 (I still do not know of the reason behind it). Back to 2016, 'MOTU' sets weren't a thing as yet, but instead Mega had licenses for 'Assassin's Creed', 'World of Warcraft', and they were about to snatch the license for 'GoT' construction sets from McFarlane Toys. The same year they also launched the 'Destiny' theme, re-acquired the 'TMNT' from Lego, and nicked 'Star Trek' from Hasbro's Kre-O. 'Pokemon' sets were being made by Ionix at the time; however, Mega nonetheless had licenses for 'SpongeBob SquarePants', 'Dora the Explorer' and the 'Despicable Me' franchise. 'Barbie' and 'Hot Wheels' sets were already around back then, and Mega had previously also had the license for 'Need for Speed'. They also produced sets for 'Monster High' and 'Thomas the Tank Engine', and were still selling 'Terminator' related stuff ('Genisys' was out just the year prior). Then there also existed the original 'Pro-Builder' theme of theirs (a counterpart of Lego's 'Creator Expert' sub-theme), which is more or less dead nowadays. And they also produced a wide variety of sets aimed exclusively at younger children aged between 4 and 8 (I do NOT mean now the big blocks from their Mega Bloks) that, among other differences, utilized different mini-figures (simpler and more Lego-like) than the ones from, for example, the 'Halo' or 'CoD' themes. This original theme of theirs was largely akin to Lego's 'City'. As far as I know, this expansive theme is most likely also dead today. Virtually all of the stuff I named above Mega produced and sold AT THE SAME TIME!!! When you compare it with what they've got on offer today, it almost makes me cry. And I haven't even touched upon yet how many sets the individual themes today have to offer.... in comparison with the past. By the way, where is the 'Signature Series' of Halo's, for example?

You know, I've been noticing an eerily-similar trend to LEGO with MEGABLOKS for quite the while, now. MEGA Bloks used to be full of original themes of various kinds, pushing with new ideas every moment they had the chance to see what would stick resulting in a variety of fun sets, my childhood favorite being Alien Agency, but then suddenly MEGABLOKS got their hands on a license, and steadily things began to change. Their original offerings began to dwindle as licenses crept in and replaced everything they'd originally done. For LEGO it was Star Wars, and for MEGABLOKS it was Halo. The only difference is LEGO at least has Creator, City, Friends, and Technic, as pathetic as that variety is compared to the early 2000s, but MEGABLOKS only has licenses, now. In the last few years I've seen Minions, He-Man, Hot Wheels, Pokemon, CoD, and of course Halo. The last time I saw an original theme from them was in 2014 with their last effort to bring the Blok Bots back with "KAPOW!" Pretty much Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, but Brick-Built action figures. They did poorly due to luke-warm marketing, and absolutely terrible distribution, as I never saw them once anywhere when they were produced. Brick-built companies are at their best with originality at the core and a couple of licenses sprinkled in, and MEGABLOKS is well past that. The fact they have horrible distribution and middling displays in stores doesn't help matters, either, given LEGO still dominates multiple aisles in the toy sections. I consider it the death knell for a company like this, personally.

I remember seeing mega in supermarkets when I was a kid but now in Australia I can't find it anywhere which is really disappointing as I love not only Halo but also mega it was a huge part of my childhood, hope to see it improve

Here in Sydney Australia, I have not seen a Halo Mega Bloks/Comstrux set in store since about 2016. Before that I could get virtually any set except for the signature series in Target or Big W (similar store to target)

I've noticed with the new ODST drop pods that the white stripe on Rookies helmet is broke to chipping off very easily, the visor prints seen sorta meh too when compared to the Buck figure from the Wombat Overwatch and the ODST from the Hornet, I can only hope I got a messy batch and it won't be the case for the majority of them when they reach store shelves

yeah you cant even get them here in the UK anymore, or at least its really hard too. Only a certain number of sets are available and even those sets are extremely hard to get hold off kinda sad really i remember as a kid going into my local asda or smyths and id always see sets there now none at all. even online you just cant get them in the UK. I'm sure you could probably get them delivered over seas but the postage would be just incredible. i got rid of my sets years ago and its my biggest regret and now i cant find any sets anywhere.

A really decent pop filter would go a long way toward increasing the production quality on your videos. You can find good ones for about 30 USD online. Scripting might do you well, too. Your content is solid, though. Great job!

Another avenue I think we should look at is the love triangle that is the video game, the peripheral lore material and the figures from Mega/Mattel. I've never heard of new material being leaked through its constituent toy licencee before - but Mega has done a great job pulling its weight as a relevant arm of Halo's presence in our eyes and on the shelves.. If it weren't for the toys and figs, Halo would be relegated to electronics, books and merch like posters and t-shirts. And all of those have a big Halo footprint, to be sure, but tangible models that are in-scale are a major part of bringing the fans, kid and adults into the universe that they have designed for us. Putting these things is your hands is captivating and engaging. But Halo as a story thats been running for 22 years now is (imo) broad enough to cause some of its own speed bumps. The books are a necessary vector to secure and protect IP, but they have to tell another side of the story that players reveal in the game in order to hold their weight as 'books'. The Mega figures and vehicles have at times struggled and at times dominated at being the connective tissue for that elusive sub group of fan that span all other genera of participation... COLLECTORS. There are other Halo things to collect, but none hold a candle to the Mega products. Woth well over 500 individual products since 2009 (I'm working on a spreadsheet) and still chugging along! Anyone who has $100 -$200 U.S. can get enough material samples to not only begin a decent collection, but range it a bit into each of the different significant factions. Try doing that with Warhammer. Why, were one so inclined, and were they armed with a basic set of rules, the models would be more than adequate for a skirmish game. I have to disagree that having most or all of the sets outletted through Mattel - who I'm sure will do a great job - will solve problems related to sales. It will definitely fix some problems but cause others. Not only will we no longer ro rummage through a new display box of blind bags, but the "exclusive to (store)" set will be gone and more importantly, the impulse purchase will be effectively dead. Having a seven year old get a blind bag to bring home is so very much more exciting that a HotWheels car. And when he or she finds out that "Dad can read the codes", its an extra special gift that is easy to acquire, always appreciated and has that extraordinary quality of getting the parent to purchase more or larger sets that we are happy to help our children build. I fear much will be lost if impulse buy is replaced by made to order. THANKS SO MUCH for breaking this all down. I didn't think I could hang for that long, but you and your contributors broke everything down simply and made a complex subject comprehensible. Thank you for all the work you do!

I’ve been also trying to solve this darn case. Because I’ve been searching for clues on this issue for about 9 months. So far I have come up empty. But the only few places in my area that have Halo Mega Construx are Target, BestBuy & Meijers.

That old halo 3 white and black pilot mini figure is one of my favorites from the old sets

They could’ve solved a lot of their problems if they had just made their figures about an inch taller. Think of the positive ramifications: easier for them to paint, able to get better details in builds, stronger articulation, higher collector value etc etc. Also they should’ve made a bid for a contract with Bethesda. Take note that the only brand under Mattel that doesn’t ever hurt is Barbie/Barbie group: they’ve been a thorn in every other brands side since HeMan in the 80s, they are extremely petty.

One other issue I didn't see in the video that I believe needs to be addressed is the china knockoffs/early release of sets. Just this week the new blind bag series I saw revealed on The Domain was already selling on eBay from Beijing, despite the fact, the name for the series hasn't even come out yet! Not to mention the situation with the new Halo Heros series (Demarcation media covers it well in this video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r9qqkrV20LzDgqc.html).

Mega has sucked I only see the razor back blitz and nothing else I remember the halo heros 10 stores were packed you could get everything now I only see the damn razor back and now all the prices are too much I can't keep paying these obsessed amounts I cant find any mega sets anywhere while scalpers find it instantly and also I tried to order a new piece for my ghost because the wing thing connector just wouldn't work they wouldn't let me get it I just want lower prices and better releases

Its funny how you uploaded this, from the UK, its nearly impossible to collect mega construx halo and it has been very frustrating seeing sets and figures I'd love to get but physically cannot, especially with scalpers. Earlier today I saw the spartan haunted being sold for $220 for example. And I need the spartan yoroi but its looking like it'll be the same. With your point on the 50th anniversary set, im unsure what time it was recorded, however I checked the Amazon US website and the price is closer to $80, and I haven't seen it being sold for $50 in a while.

I remember the gold age of mega when practically any shelf in every store was full of mega products especially walmart,now is nostalgic for me becuase the last i see my walmart full of mega construx was back in 2019 :(

Well, I remember mega block/construct in Toy R us in uk and it had it own big section just like lego but now I don't see set in store no more it's impossible to find, I found one set in game and it was in the corner, feel sad to see whats happened

was the falcon sweep even available in the UK, i use to collect halo mega so many years ago and i still have all my old sets and minifigs in storage, I saw your videos a few days ago and i already want to buy some again, I want the falcon sweep since reach is my fav halo game and I have the reach limited edition 360, would be nice to have!

I went to my Local Target and they didn't even have the new Hornet or the blond bags on the shelves. I had to ask an Employee to grab them for me which might be one problem that the companies aren't putting them out and it's really disapointing.

I usually get money from odd jobs, allowance from chores, birthdays, and illegal rackets. Using cash is easy because I show up to the store grab the product, check the blind bag code if I’m getting those, give the cashier the money and go home. Credit card debt is actively trying to be lowered so To get the sets I want I’m gonna have to get my drivers license, get a job, file for taxes and then pay a high price to get my sets online. But I guess that’s just how it is

Man I still miss those old cod figures I do have some left and some other halo figures but dam I don’t see them anymore at stores

I live in Honolulu Hawaii and the only set on the shelves in the mega section are Pokémon sets and 1 halo set, The razor back blitz. So now I have to buy everything online.

Thanks for this video. I really appreciate you taking the time to get people together to talk about some issues while keeping a positive intent. Now we have MEGA in stores in New Zealand!! Although no Halo yet but I'm crossing my fingers :)

I used to not care for Mega, but recently I rlly got into it. I used to always see Toys R Us and Target filled with Mega. Now, when I finally care for them, they are nowhere to be found. Its kinda poetic really. Thanks for the honest, but not mean review. Ive seen so many just bully Mega which I feel is not deserved, so thanks for bejng reasonable. You are the best Mega channel. I just got the ODST hive exterminator pack and gungoose on Amazon, so I watched your reviews to get me hyped lol.

I really hope mega construx sees this

Where did you get your halo heroes series 17 from?

I got the 20th anniversary set for like $40 last week. Pretty pog. But I'm pretty sad that I don't have the access to the Falcon Sweep. Can't even find scalpers selling it.

What are the odds that i keep my ODST from the hornet in the same pose as yours LOL What a great video btw i can listen to you talk mega for hours lol i have a question/ challenge for you though. The haunted spartan halo hero was shown in mega artwork (idk what artwork) that his visor can be removed. Can it? how? would love to know maybe see a video on the topic too! lol im sure lots of people who have found spartan haunted would like to know

Ive been trying to get back into mega, i don't mind buying online but one thing that makes me feel sad is the high amount of scalpers marking up what wouldve been a 30 dollar set all the way up too 90, or even 100 dollars. And ebay is no help when it comes to mega as the shipping prices are horrendous. I live in Canada for context. Still able to get stuff on Facebook marketplace though, which is always good.

Have the alpha nine drop pods been released yet? I had no idea they were even being produced and the only ones I've found are on ebay for unaffordable prices.

Great video mate. I don't want to sound like a broken record but for me it all comes down to distribution. Here in the uk I've seen on 2 sets ever in stores and they were banshee break out and mongoose hunt , that's it. I've never seen blind bags or the heroes sets. I refuse to pay massively inflated eBay and Amazon prices so I'm just being patient right now. I just think that the more people see it the more people will buy it. Not just halo either branch out into other themes. Construction,knights,cowboys, generic space combat, something. I truly do hope it improves. Much love buddy from the UK.

Sad there is zero distribution in Australia 😔 so many cool sets i either cant get at all or have to pay ridiculous prices for. Hopefully it gets better!

Over at rapid citys target, there is like NO halo in the toy's isle, it went from there being blind bags, halo heros, sets, etc. Then it went to there being only like 2 different sets they would constantly put up and now theres no halo, which makes me bummed out cause ive been collecting halo before i even knew what halo was lol.

Im new to mega halo, thanks to my son, and if it wasnt for discovering it through youtube, he wouldnt of known it even existed here in australia, it was big when toys r.us existed, and died off after that, and had been scarcely available through some retailers with minimum shelf realestate. My main concerns for halo mega is, the franchise is struggling as infinite didnt take to the halo community well and that the lack of in store availibility is going to damage the children’s interest in the product which ultimately result in only the adult collectors fuelling the product. Scalping also a high issue after paying $400 aud to get a halo falcon sweep sent to me, i feeling very but hurt from that, but buying up some sets now for my son as availability of future product looks shaky. The other issue is seemingly the price point of the mini figs through the likes of amazon is ridiculous $35 aud+ for individual figures is just crazy

I love mega I’ve been collecting for years but it sucks we can barely get any sets even DG hasn’t had anything in years near me

Here in Mexico distribution is really good shelves are usally full of mega but it take a long time to the new sets to arrive

Just recently started collecting again after a few years over the last year and recently been seeing a few of the new sets here in Canada in Walmarts finally after a few months of nothing like the new armor packs and the new hornet

I was not aware of any of this. Thank you. I have about 50 Halo sets that have never been open. My sets are 8 to 10 years old and also 40 sealed Call Of Duty sets. That I plan to open one day. Is there an app that is good to manage my collection. Thank you again

I missed out on the elite ultra honor guard because all my stores stopped carrying them 😢

I haven’t collected anything of mega for a decade, the few sets I did have didn’t have any issues aside from weapon pegs getting stuck and breaking off in the back of a Spartan. I just got the warthogs rally and the odst squad set and to my surprise they were better than the old banshee set I had (though I wish they did go back to the og odst drop pod design) For starters they really need to work on their distribution, and going to multiple store fronts to only Mattel Creations wont fix the bot buying issue it’ll make it worse (I work at Amazon I kind of know this stuff). And when I say make it worse I mean you won’t be able to get anything for a very long while, the 20th anniversary set and the Falcon sweep? Those launches will be tame to what will happen if they all just move to only Mattel Creations.

I can never find the MEGA Halo sets in the UK now. Used to see them regular in a Toys R Us not too far from me before it shut down. However, the new stuff has been non existent. It alsmot feels like they've fully pulled out of the market here.

Well I ordered some Halo megabloks figures online due to back in 2014 to 2018 there were a lot of Mega bloks sets from Halo/Call of duty/Spider-Man/pirates of the Caribbean/TMNT and also those knights thing here in the Philippines but sadly now there are no more not even a blind bags.

This might be just out there, but I feel you could make a great podcast.

IMO the quality control of MEGA may as well be the same as it was before. They may have upgraded PLASTIC QUALITY but their actual QUALITY CONTROL in their factories still suck. We’re still getting brittle, flimsy, or mismolded parts, figures have more quality control issues than ever, and distribution has gone down the drain. Also IMO this is a bigger problem now than ever before considering the much larger collector community that has sprung up around MEGA as of more recently. (The past few years.)

I discovered HEB Plus and Big Lots keep the product stocked where I live. I did a haul today because of how rare I find them

What happened to the elephant sand trap set that was announced did it ever release or if not will it ever release?

The online Walmart site also has some of the mega bloks

I want them to succeed because they are a massive part of my childhood. However, it is completely valid for people to blame them and be angry when they mess up. Defend them if you want, but remember that they would NEVER defend you. It's a company, not a person or a friend.

The wasp set, master chief missing 1 shoulder piece and the other one was pretty loose

The main problem in Mexico are the resellers, they have small communities in facebook and some informal stores :(

sup zee, how long you’ve been collecting mega? i’ve always thought you’ve been collecting since 2020 😭

In Mexico is a miracle to get the new series, like, 1 of each figure of the serie IN A WHOLE WALMART, i repeat, ONLY ONE COPY OF EACH FIGURE OF THE NEW SERIE IN A WHOLE WALMART.

I've been looking for sets in Mexico at Wallmart toy stores and other places but I just can't find them and my last option is to buy online

I want the halo universe series 2 so badly but I can’t find them 😭

i havent seen mega construx halo sets at walmart or target in like 3-4 years
