Heh, I like his roles but the "So Much Win" meme makes me laugh too much

Halo Kat's cybernetic arm looks good, but isn't very articulated, it just swivels.
It can't bend and the hand doesn't turn either.

Still a cool figure and she actually has a female torso under her armor. The only other female Spartan that I have is Sarah Palmer from the Assault Battle pack and she has a male body.
I don't know if the single carded version from the heroes series is the same or if they're using that female torso from now on.

My greatest Mega Bloks regret is my lack of a fully articulated Air Assault Spartan.

I've got a soft spot for that helmet.

That's a Terminator arm that's why it's just a swivel.

....i'll shoot my shot...

Does anyone here have Mega Construx Star Trek Guardian of Forever Collector Construction Set?
Image

If so ...would you be willing to part with one of the red shirts? I'm preparing to buy a set or 2 but only want the red shirts and would hate to waste the rest of the set. Alternatively i'd be willing to trade / sell the rest of the set to someone who might be looking for it and has what i need.

I'll gladly take one of the leftovers. Hell, both and I'll just give Kirk and Spock headswaps.

Has the new Construx Heroes line been selling well in your areas? They have been flying off the pegs here.
I didn't think I was going to have that much competition getting them but I have yet to see a Xenomorph in stores (granted that is probably the most popular and an army builder). Fortunately I've been able to get 11 Borgs (including a pop and swap Locutus) but of course I want more (not that there are any currently).
I am looking forward to seeing what they will do for the second wave.

They are slowing down near me, still selling but fairly easy to find

Going to have to hit up Wal-Mart this weekend, but the line was an immediate hit. The first time I saw them in person, I bought the Xenos I found (two for me, one for my childhood/adulthood BFF). Had to resort to eBay for my He-Man and Skeletor, since I've never actually even seen them at retail.

As feared, by the time I get to them, it's just a bunch of Picards and some Borg. Still need to pick some Borg up, though might wait 'til I can find some on clearance, or as a cheap lot.

Series 2 guesses:

-Hellboy
-Abe Sapien
-Endoskeleton (rerelease)
-Faker
-Merman
-Battle Armor He-Man
-Battle Armor Skeletor

Yup!

Totally forgot the Aliens license! Maybe we'll get a Xeno with a new head, featuring a clear skull covering. Since we got a Marine, maybe Ripley?

Y'know, before we get a proper one with Power Loader and Alien Queen ;-)

How many series you give it before MOTU is spun off into its own line?

I dunno that we'd get a new-head Xeno; but I notice the current one has a hole in its mouth where a removable tongue would fit. I'm thinking we could get the same Xeno with that tongue piece and an egg or two to go with the current facehuggers. Ripley with the Loader and a Queen would make for a [LASER BLAST]' box set, esp if it came with half-a-Bishop.

I bet we see an announcement for a dedicated MBotU line come Toy Fair '18. We'll probably see another couple of Heroes figures before then. I'm hoping for TriKlops and Man-at-Arms, but it'll be either Faker or BeastMan.

The Mega Construx website no longer as the "not available in your country" mention on the Mega Heroes so it might just be a question of time before they're finally available in Canada.

I agree with this, but unless they don't go for Beastman's barefoot look (possible) or make a new lower leg (doubtful), I don't expect him to be one of the releases unless the line really takes off. I think it's more likely we see Merman (all Skeletor with a new head and harness) or maybe Triklops (all He-Man with a new head and harness).
