My favorite part of Mega Construx has always been the figures. The builds are amazing too, but the figures are truly what seals the deal on an item. To celebrate Mega's figures, I have put together a list of my top five favorite Mega Construx figures that I own.
-Taking the number 5 spot is the Prophet of truth. I consider the throne to be a part of the figure as well, so thats mostly why this is such a favorite. Despite being my favorite Halo villain, Truths throne Build is amazing. It fits his figure so comfortably and securely that the pin they give you is unnecessary. The actual Truth figure is my only SLIGHT gripe. The molds are amazing, but the bright red makes this figure look very Toyish. Either way, this is a fantastic rendition of a favorite character, and some wash and darker red on a future version would perfect it.
-At number 4 is the Warthog Run Arbiter figure. The molds for this figure are some of Mega's best, and the set made them very widely available. It doesn't have much printing, but it doesn't need it to look good because of the wash.
-Number 3 is our favorite four-armed friend, the Fallen Captain from the Spider walker. The coloring, printing, and molds make this figure go from building toy to miniature statue. This guy looks like he was pulled straight out of the game, and this is one of the fiercest looking Mega figures to date. (Please Mega I need more of this)
-At number 2 and VERY NEARLY number 1 is Cayde 6. It doesn't matter if you play Destiny or not, EVERYONE likes Cayde 6. Voiced by our favorite gunnery sergeant Edward Buck, this figure is packed to the brim with details, printing, and unique pieces. (chicken not included) The Ace of Spades hand cannon is looking amazing with some really fine printing on the sides, and the printed cape is an amazing piece as well. The head piece has every little detail you could want, and gives a lot of character to the figure.
-FINALLY AT NUMBER ONE is the Halo Heroes Series 8 Emile figure. To me, this figure is what Mega Construx is all about. Great looking figures that are perfect for both play and display. To say this figure is a universal improvement from the old one is a gross understatement. Mega NAILED absolutely NAILED the color scheme for this figure. The grey, red and gold on this figure really fit in with Reach's gritty, industrial color scheme, and the skull is perfectly done. The shotgun, kukri, and armor pieces are perfect, everything about this figure, Mega nailed.
This has been my top 5 Mega figures. Thanks for checking it out, and if you have and favorites I missed, let me know in the comments!
