Halo Mega Bloks Summer 2016 Sets Up for Order on Amazon!

The Halo toy collecting world was shocked last month, when five of the Summer 2016 Halo Mega Bloks sets–including several sets never-before-seen–turned up for sale online at scalper prices! But patience has paid off (for those who were patient, anyway), as the Halo Mega Bloks Summer 2016 Sets are now available on Amazon with free shipping! But while the Kodiak Siege Cannon is finally available for order, a certain Spartan Red Leader has mysteriously disappeared…

I admit it: I was impatient. It’s true. When Toywiz posted most of the Mega Bloks Halo 2016 summer sets up for order at crazy inflated prices last month… I bought all of them but the new Wraith.

I already reviewed the UNSC Jackrabbit set with Spartan Douglas, but I was waiting for the sets to become more available before continuing with my reviews. And it looks like that time has now arrived!

The most exciting set that’s now up on Amazon is definitely the Halo Wars 2 Kodiak Siege Cannon Mega Bloks set, which was not previously available on ToyWiz. In fact, until now, we didn’t even know the official name for the Halo Mega Bloks Kodiak Siege Cannon!

Back at Toy Fair 2016 it was certainly indicated that Jerome would be present, so I’m baffled as to Red Leader’s omission here.

UNSC Kodiak Halo Wars 2 Mega Bloks SetFor $69.99, I’m certainly disappointed that we only get three figures with this set. The Mega Bloks Spartan Alice figure is a must-have for me, and I like the two generic silver Covenant Brutes included as well, but the loss of Spartan Red Leader has definitely decreased my enthusiasm for the Kodiak Siege Cannon.

I’m still planning to buy the set for Alice, mind you, but I’m definitely concerned about when (and if) MEGA Brands is planning on giving us the Spartan Jerome figure now.

In addition to the Halo Wars Kodiak Siege Cannon set, four other new sets are now available, although the Halo Wars 2 UNSC Jackrabbit set is not in-stock yet:

Halo Mega Bloks Brute Chopper Raid Set BoxBrute Chopper Raid Set with Spartan Kat and Brute Captain Figure

Halo Mega Bloks Dual Mode UNSC Warthog Set BoxDual-Attack UNSC Warthog with Spartan Hermes and Spartan War Master Figures

Halo Mega Bloks UNSC Spade Rush SetUNSC Spade Rush Set with Spartan EVA and Spartan Operator Figures

Halo Mega Bloks Covenant Wraith Ambush Set BoxCovenant Wraith Ambush with Elite Commander, Elite Minor and Spartan Helljumper Figures

Halo Wars 2 Kodiak Mega Bloks Set with Alice-130 Spartan FigureThese Halo Mega Bloks Summer 2016 sets are now available for order on Amazon with free shipping, although I expect the initial shipments of all of these sets to sell out quickly. If you want any of these without having to wait a few weeks for a restock, I’d suggest ordering them as soon as possible. I’ll post an update when the UNSC Jackrabbit set is added to the site for sale as well (which theoretically should be soon, since we know the set is already produced).

Which of the Summer 2016 Mega Bloks Halo sets are your favorites? And now that the Kodiak set won’t include Jerome, are you still planning to pick it up?

  1. I love me some alice so probably. But it does bother me that the new brutes are just as tall or shorter than spartans again. I had hoped theyed change that with super articulation.

  2. kodiak is my favorite, I hope it has room for some more troops

  3. I would have trade-in both Brutes to get Jerome back. Doesn’t make sense that they’d give us Alice and Douglas but not Jerome. I just hope that Jerome won’t end up to be some impossible to find exclusive. Disappointed, but I think I’ll still get this set. Probably wait for a sale though, not at full price.

  4. Alas, my friend, I have exhausted my Megabloks allowance. Could’ve had it sooner, but it took me a few days to reconcile my desire for this set with dropping seventy smackeroos.

  5. Wait, in one picture, Alice has a shotgun, in the other she has a battle rifle, whixh one is it?
