I want mega construx to make newer versions of these, they are truly amazing because it is so much easier and cooler to have maybe 4 of these instead of having to buy lots of sets and still only be able to make the equivalent of one

I should have bought it when I saw it for 25 dollars, I had it so easy...

Very good set, got it from toys r us few years ago for 15$, definitely get if you see it under 40$

this set is just pure awesome, all the figures are great and the terrain is amazing. highly recommend it.

want this so bad. I can only find it for £100.

Detailed terrain piece with extra goodies!

The MB Halo line of battlescapes is a shout out to the large terrain pieces that Mega Bloks was known for in the early millenium. However, this far outclasses earlier terrain pieces. The terrain is very highly detailed and well painted has enough studs to build your own terrain on top of it. Speaking of customisability, the grass patch can be attached in varying positions to form extra land, a bunker or a hill. Very nice. Finally, there are transparent rods to hold up aerial vehicles to give the illusion of flight.
This is a very awesome touch and makes for great display possibilities. However, this system is limited by the fact that more ball joints could have been provided for more dynamic poses and the fact that multiple rods are required to support anything larger than a 400 piece aircraft.
The battlescape can be a bit small for larger vehicles such as tanks. The intention is to buy multiple battlescapes and combine them together to form one massive, single landscape. Unfortunately, these battlescape sets cost slightly more than what they are worth.

Now on to the goodies! The purpose of this set is to compliment and enhance any other sets you may have. If this is your first, then not to worry! The set comes with three figures. A flood combat form (very cool) which can be changed back into a marine (with Halo CE colour scheme), a standard version one elite with a very bizzare yet charming paint scheme that makes him very unique and a Spartan II in a more olive than usual green that leads me to believe that the man is the Master Cheif himself. The three way fight lends to great playability if the set is used as a stand alone and of course the ghost only makes things better.
The ghost comes in a new, crimson purple colour that really bring out the alien exotic in the Covanent. The special pieces used to make it create graceful curves that lead to one beautiful toy. I doubt Mega Bloks can make a better ghost than this. I've had very few toys I'd call perfect. This ghost is Perfect.

Overall, detailed and functional landscape, great figures and my favorite under 100 pieces construction toy build ever. Just a tad too pricey and small.
