As a forklift certified fan of Halo, I couldn't be happier that this set includes a forklift
Lol same here I brought the forklift to my shop and now it rests on my toolbox
Forklift certified?
The majestic choirs paired with Arbiter driving the forklift is the most beautiful combo in history.
Also, just as a side note, I greatly appreciate you using the Gravemind drums for the action scene. It's such a tiny little piece of music that seems to largely go unremembered, but it's always been one of my favorites.
Also, two and a half minute forklift section? YES PLEASE.
Thank you! 😂 And yeah I feel like I barely ever hear that piece of music used for anything, but it's still very memorable to me so I'm glad you appreciated it! :)
A wild Joefilms has appeared!
Arbiter driving the forklift and the blue elite is so funny
Thanks for featuring my feedback! I hope it helped people on saving money in flood! Also thanks for the animating tips! These will def come in handy! I don’t rush animation on new sets because at first MEGA joints are stiff, so I “play” with them until they are loose enough to animate easily. Also great MC impression!
Yeah
The wait was totally WORTH IT! AMAZING JOB!
the best thing ever to happen
Lmfao the forklift and elites
I've been eagerly waiting to see if you do a review of this set, amazing work with the intro animation as always. Loved the review, especially the tips for those who intend to get this set and animate with it, hope the price comes down a bit so I can pick one up.
1:35 I love Thel and N'tho just coming to save the day on a forklift.
As of watching it. Its listed on amazon for retail. So that is good.
I gotta five credit to the older sets. An extra points to this set. They all pair incredibly well togeather.
if mega would ever do ads again for something other than pokemon for once
these would be right up that alley for them, this reminds me of some of the official ads I've seen in the past
So AMAZING! I know I Love all of your stop-motion reviews. But this has been the greatest I've ever seen from you! AWSOME job!
Dang! This animation is flawless! Amazing video!
I appreciate all the work you did for halo...this was epic
This is the first video of stop motion/review I have seen in months and it is very good.
That was awesome bro. Loved every part.
Absolutely awesome😊
Nothing is scarier than "The Flood".
FINALLY I’ve been waiting for you to review this set for forever
Me when I learned it came with a forklift: “A weapon to surpass Metal Gear.”
Great as always dude! Keep it up!
YEEEES! ITS OUT yay, the opening animation is handsome
dude I absolutely love the opening animation!
what a beautiful animation bro
Love this set.. I hope to be able to pick up one
Really enjoyed the animation. very swag, very cool very chill.
YOU NAILED THOSE FLAME EFFECTS amazing stop motion review and i might take some inspiration from it for my stop motions
This is AWESOME! I love these Halo megablox guys. They're the best little guys and are super detailed
Dude you have really stepped up you game, I loved the animation!
I love all your work. This stop motion must of taken ages to make. You should try and do an animated review about the banshee breakout of the Mercenary Combat Unit. There small sets but I don't know what one to get. Anyway I love all your animation and keep up the good work.
So happy this is a set im hopefully gonna get one soon.
I love this
nice job, stop motion was awesome
Awesome vid, didn't take long to convince me to get this set lol
WOAH. MY FLOOD MOC. thanks for showing a bit of it in the vid!
Oh awesome!! I wondered if you'd see my video 😄 It was a really cool MOC. I made sure to show credit in case anyone wanted to go see who built it so I hope that's alright!
it a ok my dude. keep up the fantastic work!@@SonicJohn117
I would have LOVED this set to have friendly elites with Chief since it's based off Floodgate in Halo 3.
But, this is still a great set!
I hope they do more flood themed sets in the future! Since I don’t have any flood figures in my collection yet, and judging from the new combat form molds, also MASTER CHIEF IS NOW FORKLIFT CERTIFIED, LETS GO!!!
I HAVE THAT SET AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!!😍😃
Lets goooooi🎉🔥🔥🔥🔥
Been waiting for this review. Loved the intro animation. The set seems to have dropped back to retail price and I honestly want to jump on the opportunity and get a second one.
Thanks :) Oh nice! You could ascend to the rank of madlad with 2 floodgate sets. Tbf I am tempted too. Feel like we've never had a set so good for dioramas and scenery.
Absolutely love the Elites just riding on the forklift (omg they forklift certified!!!!!!) ❤
the funniest thing i’ve seen in a while n yet i don’t laugh at those trynottolaugh impossible vids yet i laughed my ass off by seeing arbiter driving forklift while an elite was on it too
Set is now about $60 on Amazon and ships same day. If you are into Halo or even Call of Duty this is a must have and great value!
I loved the stop motion. It felt like a real halo.
The flood bout to be forklift certified!!
Fantástico amigo
I might be a little late but this video is still a Masterpiece
Amazing review John! That beginning animation is one of the best ones you've pumped out in a while! Very good choice in music & I loved the set! I wish they gave us a set as large as the moc you showcased in your animation, cus it looked so freaking cool in there! 😂😂😂
The actual set is basically as big as the one he used in the intro animation so it’s not an exaggeration.
I meant including all the walls & the baseplates & stuff. He made everything look so massive
Thanks Dave!! 😊 yeah the set looked quite spindly and thin after I took all the background stuff away haha. I only had enough grey bricks etc to fill the frame, so whenever I reframed a shot I had to rebuild the set lol
RELATABLE
Ngl this looks like this could be a base for the unsc
😱🤩👏🏼MARVELOUS👏🏼🤩😱 Ain’t nothing better than Stop Motion except……MORE Stop Motion‼️ I love watching Stop Motion just as much as I enjoy creating it🎬📸🎞️ What are your favorite figures to animate🤔
I’m not joking I was about to like this video about six times like I literally went down below to like the video and then I realize that I had already liked the video😂
Great work man. The opening animation was nicely done but in my opinion small details like having darker lighting, adjusting the elites foot on the ground, making the fusion coil explosion bigger etc.. would have made it better however that’s just my opinion. The flamethrower practical effects were what really stood out to me as I never considered using cotton. When making my the thing film I tried paper and other materials but settled with vfx. Keep up the great work man I love these reviews!
Cheers Rapid! Yeah the animation definitely got brighter as it went along (perhaps a bit too bright in some shots), but it was because I wanted to show off the set rather than have it all be so dark and just lit with a torch. In a more cinematic animation where the background wasn't as important I probably would have made it really dark and spooky. I'm glad you liked the flamethrower! It was my first time doing anything like that and I learnt a lot.
@@SonicJohn117 nice
The flood is doomed, for the Arbiter is forklift certified
This set is so cool that I got 2.
Probably might get a 3 or 4th
I am forklift certified
I never knew Sangheili were forklift certified!
Jokes aside, lovely video! I'm a new viewer, and I gotta say this is a pretty good review, not to mention the intro. And for that, and the overall production quality, you've earned yourself a new subscriber!
Arbiter got busy taking his Forklift certification between Halo 2-3 lol. And thank you that's lovely to hear! :)
You're too late Master Chief I am now forklift certified
Didnt mention the main reason forklift is so popular, its used for a big skip in Reach
I hope to reach his level of Quality on stop motions soon.
Wow bro you animation si a God
the angles in this animation are so good how did you get them this good, the animation itself was incredible Aswell.
What a strange time we live in
Where fan made projects have better reviews than.... paramount
i found it on amazon, bought 2 for 75 a piece
Me listening to gravemind: man this is spooky
Half way into the song: wtf, why is it a early 2000’s pop song
You can put the skull on master chefs head 100/100
I wonder if Mega is planning on doing the Warden Eternal
I think it should’ve had at least 1 carrier form, that would be nice
Bro, you animated the actual review??? That's it, I'm getting into stop motion now
If they would redo the head on the elite to be more flood like and paint the feelers on the combat and infection forms it would make the new flood amazing but the original combat form head and infection forms look better and more detailed in my opinion
I added Arbie to mine to make it feel better
I really love the shit I recently picked it up but as soon as I was clip minutes to get her, the clip snapped in half both of them it sucks but I love the schedule❤😊
THIS SET IS FORKLIFT CERTIFIED 1!!1!!1!!1!1!1!
That’s gonna be a meme when master chief said geting forklift certified 😂😂😂😂😂
Sadly too late to comment but awesome vid
It's never too late to comment 💪
me gustaria mas si tuviera una base pero estoy agradecido
FEAR ME MASTER CHIEF I AM NOW FORKLIFT CERTIFIED!
Great review. I managed to get this set and I love the Flood figures. Hey by the way I’ve been wondering, where do you get you Halo sound effects? I want to improve my videos and me using my phone to record sound effects off of CZcams isn’t that great.
That's great to hear! The flood figures are awesome. And as for the sound effects, I downloaded a few sound packs which literally have all the raw sounds from the various games. You can search for "VG Resource Halo sounds" online and download their packs, or check out Aegis Mind's CZcams channel as he uploads lots of game sounds from a bunch of games including Halo. Hope that helps!
I tried to do stopmotion, i made some notes. The little walkways dont work all to well for animating, the crate is in the way, doesnt stay still, doesnt raise or lower properly, and is just annoying, so i removed it. Having a second one of these would be awesome, so there is more room for an actual building (though i love this as a background/stage). Overall its pretty cool and the stuff has high value, but its mostly good for shelf display.
This review is awesome!
But oh MY GOD this set is impossible to find for a good price- it’s a shame, because when I see a cool new mega set, I think “man I wonder if this set will need to be rereleased as well,”
I hate it, because I used to think “wow that’s awesome! I can’t wait to get that” and it was always a fun feeling. But now… it’s just, miserable
Try Mattel Creations
Sorry to hear that. I know right... I want the elephant but the price + shipping is INSANE 😭
First off, what an amazing video on an amazing set. Secondly, I've been wanting to start stop motion or maybe just photographs and I was wondering what camera and stop motion program do you use/recommend?
Thank you! So I started out on a low end DSLR camera, and now I use a Lumix GH5 camera. But nowadays phone cameras are actually really good and there's lots of stop motion apps you could try out to get started. If you went a bit more advanced to edit an animation, I recommend using Hitfilm Express which is free (and what I use) because it's a video editor where you can import 'image sequences' and basically it just plays images as a stop motion for you without having to do much extra to them. And it's a proper video editor which has so many more options than a stop motion app on a phone.
@@SonicJohn117 Thanks for the advice it's greatly appreciated
I love everything about this set, it was smaller then I expected but if I wanted too I have the right parts too make it bigger, or I could get another one. I’ll probably get another one tbh. Forklift is very fragile tho, but I’m not a person that slams shit into other toys or whatever, when i actually play with my stuff I don’t really slam stuff into other stuff so idc bout that, the forks aren’t a problem with me, but it tips over when I lift the fork part, and the part that connects the forks and outer canopy is very very very weak. But again, idc that much. Chief gud, flood gud gud, barricade gud gud, sand bags gud gud, everything gud. Forklift best cus gud more then all cus it gud.
Great animation! Will you ever make a video for the Falcon Sweep?
Thank you! I did manage to get the Falcon so yep that's definitely on my list of ones to review :)
Make sure you subscribe to every comment on this video 🤓👍
1:33 If only this was canon in H3.
Where do you get these?
I got the mega set and it did not have 1 Pease and I couldn't make the forklift and I did not lose the pease probably because they were lazy or new or they fought
I live in the UK and find it very hard to find Mega Construx Halo sets, where do you get yours?
We're can I buy it
I bought 3 of these baby’s
the flud
How do you make the flame effect is that painted cotton balls
It's white cotton balls but I shone a really bright red torch onto them
I meam if the forklift doesn't sell you then i don't know what will
YOURE TOO LATE TRUTH, I AM NOW FORKLIFT CERTIFIED
I have the set it's a good build but too expensive for what it has in the set.
I love that you didn't introduce and animate them, but they wouldn't. Are you going to get the Pelican in bound?
Um...my odst that I let drive the forklift wasn't forklift certified 😊
*ONI wants to know your location*
I just bought 4, lmfao
What is the song at 1:52?
It's "Just Ad Nauseam" from the first Halo Wars
@@SonicJohn117 thank you!
I am hoping I get a Amazon discount to buy this set🙏
Hella sweet deal. Got 1 myself
I ❤️ forklift
