Mega Blox Assassins Creed

The ones I have are pretty sturdy. I was going to be the big Halo 4 set because it'd make a killer Church of Universal Truth ship for my GotG to pose with, but the price on the after market was far too bloated. I think that i'll buy some though, especially from Revelations. As a guy from Smirni, a place pretty close to Constantinopole (fun fact: the name Istanbul was coined because Constantinopole was also known as "Poli", in english, the City. So when most people at the time were heading for there they said "is tin poli" which, when put together, sounds like Istanbul in greek) I'd like to have some sets from the old homeland (my family fled from there after the massacre, a long time ago, but no one can really forget it).

Anyway, I got carried away, so to answer the sturdiness question, yeah, I'd say that they are pretty sturdy. Don't listen to all these 10 year Lego fanatics, who like nothing else other than DC and Lego. In their eyes anything else block related (minimates, megabloks, k-nex)and comic related (image, marvel, idw, etc) is horseshit and deserves to be burned to the ground.

Re: the Callof Duty line..... I own multiple Call of Duty troop packs and *really* enjoy them. They are sturdy ( and i pose and repose them a lot ) and the plastic is of high quality. As a life long action figure collector these are now my number one toy product. I also picked up the new Alpha Series HALO line and it's of the same quality just with slightly smaller (shorter) figures. I have a slight preference for the Call of Duty line . I expect to pick up my fair share of Assasins Creed if for no other reason than custom fodder.

So they're all add-ons. Hmm, I really like this TBH. You get 2 figures for the price of 1 and you can use the gear for customs. I'd just like to see the sets now, because i'm really tired of Building Blocks toys being just a boat or small space ship and two figures. I want real sets, not poor excuses.

There was a time when Mega Bloks were cheap-o crap. But about the time Mega Brands got into Halo, they've worked to up their production value and that effort has paid off. While not quite the consistent quality of Lego, you won't be disappointed in the structural integrity of modern Mega Bloks.

I thought "Marvin" (Roadblock from ARAH GI Joe * before the Rock took over the role) deserved a close up image.
*side not..the guy on the left looks quite a bit like the actor on the show "Hell on Wheels" Common

And once again i get the feeling whoever sculpts these heads is using ARAH figures for reference. One of these guys looks quite a bit like Bazooka and a version of Gung Ho that i recall.

Yes they are showing up on shelves but the full release is still weeks away if i recall. None the less you can find them now.

Trust...if you like minimates then you'll like these. They represent the natural evolution of the block based mini figure. Lego->Minimates -> Mega Bloks original HALO figures - > Mega Bloks new articulation micro figures (Call of Duty, Assasins Creed, 2014 HALO, etc).

I can only imagine what the next leap forward will bring.
