Mega Bloks Halo Wars Aerial Ambush Review

I normally avoid Mega Bloks because they have a tendency to be inferior in quality to Lego. This was the case here as well, with bricks that don't fit snugly and others that are warped. In the end there were certain parts that would not even stay on. The two chin-guns and the laser cannons would not stay on at all. In the end I had to bust out the super glue and glued everything that kept falling off. Now it makes a great display piece, but I can never take it apart, but I don't think I ever would have anyway.
Once together the Hawk looks absolutely awesome. Mega Bloks did an excellent job on the shape and appearance and the stickers and camo-colored blocks only add to the look.
While the Hawk is the focal point of the set the Banshee is every bit as good and looks as close to the video game as you could get. The figures are also very good, and much more articulated and realistic than the Lego offerings. Children may find them harder to pose because of this, but I didn't buy this for the kids, I bought it for me. ;)
If the set had been offered in Lego I would give it 5 stars but because of the quality issues with Mega Bloks I deducted 1 star. Be warned, if your child wants to be able to build and re-build the model it may be difficult because without super glue the Hawk had parts that would not stay together. The Banshee and gun turret, as well as the figures, were fine.
