MEGA BLOKS: Halo #97018 Forward on to Dawn (The Infinity) set revealed

As soon as I saw this on the Mega Bloks Halo Facebook Wall thanks to Will Bailey, (As well as TradeDemon from SpartanBloks.com) my jaw completely fell to the ground. The first little photo of a (possibly) upcoming set from Mega Bloks and Halo called: Forward on to Dawn 

The set looks as if it's gonna be huge just by the box, it will most likely be very costly. That is if it hits retail. We don't know when the set may release if it even does so. W don't know if the set will even include mini-figurines. All that's shown is a photo of the concept fully built, it's rated for ages 8 and up, the set name, and what seems to be a disconection gimmick (This could be to interact with mini-figures like some of the larger Lego Star Wars sets) 

I can't wait to hear if this set will go further in the production of Mega Bloks Halo. If you want this, save up your money 

Update: It's vehicle is actually called "The Infinity" (At least from fans opinions, it looks more like the Infinity more then anything) they could be planning both the Infinity and the Forward on to Dawn set, or the original set was the Forward on to Dawn but changed in production 

Update 2: The set will come with mini-figures and is set for a release date around November 2012

BAToys4BABoys reveals full box art for 97017 Countdown (UNSC Sabre with Gantry)

Thanks to BAToys4BABoys.com, we finally get to see the final version of the box art for the renamed set "Countdown" which was once called the UNSC Sabre with Gantry. The set includes 6 figures, the UNSC Sabre, and the Gantry Landing Pad all at a price ranged of around $100. The Sabre was the set chosen from the 2011 Halofest for which one set will be released, it was chosen over the Forerunner Structure and the Covenant Spirit Dropship. Enjoy 

Again, the set includes 2 UNSC (Troopers) Marines, a Mark V(b) Spartan, a UNSC Sergeant, a UNSC Technician, and a new coloured UNSC Grenadier Spartan which totals to 6 figures. It also includes the Armory System which means you can convert a figure to another, currently the secondary armor is unknown. My overall view, although I usually go after the largest Covenant Sets for my armies this is actually number 1 on my list, wish me luck and good luck to you if you so choose to one day get it
