MEGA Brands has posted an all-new video which features the complete reveal and unveiling of the first set in the Halo Mega Bloks Signature Series: Forward Unto Dawn! We knew this set was coming when the prototype box artwork leaked last month, and then when we saw a prototype of the set posted on Facebook. But with this video, we can now see the set in all of its gorgeous detail and really get an idea for its positively massive size and scale!
You can check out the video above, but here’s some key information revealed in the video:
- The UNSC Forward Unto Dawn is comprised of over 2,800 pieces, the most pieces of any set ever in the Halo Mega Bloks line.
- The set features a to-scale, light-up Cortana in her holographic form! This is the first time we’ve ever seen an electronic, light-up figure in any Mega Bloks line, and it looks flat-out phenomenal.
- You can recreate the climactic scene from Halo 3 with this set, as the back portion of the Forward Unto Dawn frigate can be broken off from the rest of the ship, leaving the Master Chief adrift in space…
- …Wait, did I just say the Master Chief?! That’s right! Master Chief is FINALLY here in the Halo Mega Bloks line! We’ve had some copycat look-alike Mega Bloks Spartans before, but now we will once and for all have the official Mega Bloks Master Chief!
- The Master Chief Mega Bloks figure will apparently have a new metallic green paint color and 30 paint passes, which literally has to be some kind of record. This Master Chief is going to be one incredible figure.
- There’s a usable Cryo-Bay set up in the back of the Forward Unto Dawn, so Master Chief can go into cryo-stasis until the day his service is needed once again (otherwise known as “Halo 4”). This is the first Cryotube in the Halo Mega Bloks line.
- The Signature Series Forward Unto Dawn Halo Mega Bloks set will contain five exclusive total figures: the Master Chief, the light-up Cortana hologram, a UNSC Technician, a UNSC Officer, and a blue Elite Zealot.
- Portions of the UNSC Forward Unto Dawn can be removed in order to show off the ultra-detailed interior of the ship.
- The Halo Mega Bloks Forward Unto Dawn Signature Series set will go up for pre-order on Wednesday, August 1st on the Toys R’ Us website.
- The price for the set has not yet been revealed, but it (obviously) will be once the set goes up for pre-order on August 1st.
We’ll post the official price of the set and a link to the pre-order once it goes live on the Toys R Us website next week. And remember, you can follow us on Facebook or Twitter to have all our Halo toy news beamed directly to your favorite source of social media!
