Some more factory samples for the upcoming Point Dread playset have arrived. These will be reviewed by the design team to be adjusted by the factory. We will be looking at paint applications and colors. Among other things, Skeletor's armor will have more purple paint.
Once they are approved, final production will begin.

@Kevin_MCX Thank you so much! You guys are making some quality sets that my sons love! You have gotten them into MotU based on your product alone!
Mega is the reason I got into Halo, really. I didn't even know the game existed until I saw my cousin with a generic Spartan Mark IV spartan by in the days of the old articulation.
Thank you for sharing your stories. This will sound corny, but a big part of why the Mega team does what what we do is to bring play to kids (of all ages). So reading these kinds of posts always brightens our day :)

Mega got me into Halo and CoD. I got some Halo one day, and loved it.
I've never played a Console game, and would never know anything of Halo if nit for Mega. I've found my second favorite interest (below Star Wars) to read and write about.
Heck, if i hadn't gotten into Halo and Mega i probably would never have found my writing talent.

Those feline molds look amazing!
I hope the MCX MotU line lasts for many, many years.

The look at the new blind bags for Halo have gotten me so excited, especially since it’s been stated that marines will come back this year in a big way. I would love to hear more about the new grunt mask mold and the design process/reasoning. Which brings two questions. First, why the choice to make this new mask mold since in the anniversary versions of the games that mask is not seen. Second, will we see more customization for grunts and elites, like spec ops? Thank you guys for the great work!

Great job on the new sets, design team! I don’t think I need to explain how beautiful that Pelican is, and I’m gonna be honest about the Warthog. I thought the old ‘Hogs looked as good as a MCX ‘Hog could, but then THAT came out! Personally I’m not the biggest of fans of the Halo 5 (and Halo Infinite I suppose) in-game Mongoose design, I prefer the Halo 3, Reach, and Halo 4 looks - but you surprised me with how good you made that one look! Well done!
If you don’t mind my asking, is there any chance of a Phantom as well? If not, that’s totally fine, and I’m not asking for one, but I’d like to buy a Phantom to go with this new Pelican - whether that be a new release or the 2011 one doesn’t matter to me.
But once again, well done!

Also, a Spirit wouldn't be bad. I doubt it’ll make a return in Infinite, but still.

@TheeSpartan117, great question regarding the Grunt masks. We wanted to pay homage to the original version of Halo CE when we created that figure. For customization, that will continue for the foreseeable future. It is a big reason why we design the figures the way we do. Without being too spoilery, there will definitely be new Halo armors to collect in the Fall 2020 line, for good guys and bad guys ;)
@JoeFilms, thanks for the kind words, the design team worked hard on this line, so we're are thrilled at the response so far. I can't talk about the whole Fall 2020 line because we want to avoid spoiling the next game for everyone. But stay tuned, 2020 is Halo's year ;)

Hey, pats to the back to every one at Mega. That Pelican set is amazing and the secondary build has almost convinced my to buy two. I wanted to know if there was a chance that we would get any figures with sandals.I need some for a custom. Thank you for your time and I'm excited to see more sets!
