    Dude could you get me a couple? My walmart only has the box and it isn't looking like they will get more. I would love to get the clear one. Looks so nice

    I've been meaning to get a couple of the individual figures, but haven't had the time to get out to Walmart to look for them (too bad they don't sell them at Target). Especially the Active Camo Spartan and the Green colored Elite. Any word on series 2 of these things?

    Funny, I put my figures on the same color pad.

    I wonder when they'll have a new wave of these blind packs. Perhaps too soon to ask?

    One walmart near me had a spot for the blind packs, but were all gone. I did. though, buy the 2 target exclusive spartan&grunt weapon packs, and the troop transport warthog.

    Do you mean Brute? Only weapon packs I've seen have either a Spartan or a Brute. Unless there's a Grunt weapon pack I've never heard of before now, lol (honestly wouldn't be all that surprising).

    Personally I hope there's a Grunt or two in series 2 of the blind packs. Would be funny to pose them with the Reach Grunt action figures (baby grunts, lol).

    I don't own it, but all warthogs (halo, not halo wars) are the same build, except for color and gun in the back(or troop transport)

    Finally splurged and bought the Pelican. I love it! It looks really good but took me around 4 hours to build with the help of my cat, who batted the loose pieces with his paws. I added another seat to the cargo area and placed a co-pilot in the cockpit. I'm trying to figure out if I can squeeze at least another seat in the back.

    It's in stores too, I saw the promotion in the TRU ad that gets sent out in newspapers.

    Got one of the blind pack figures the other day and it happened to be an active camo spartan. Yay for beginner's luck.

    Weird, I got like three of those Blue Hayabusas. I just haven't had luck getting Elites.

    TRU has a deal right now where if you buy a Warthog set, you get the Brute Chopper set for free. There's also the 2-for-1 deal right now too.

    I still have not been able to find these locally. The Walmart still has the empty display box (it has been there for weeks). However, I got some decent deals on eBay and got 3 of the active camo Spartans, two of the blue hayabusas, and a yellow flame dude.

    Here is my collection so far! Including my custom transforming UNSC spartan whip special! (no longer an auto bot, has unsc markings etc)

    [​IMG]

    As more sprays of that transformer become available, I will turn them into Spartans!

    Got two more blind packs, felt them up until i got one that felt like a hayabusa, and guess what, it was a red marine, and I got another active camo one. Nice use of that mcfarlene ghost MasterDeath
    Mr. Sparklebot, have you tried both of those deals together, like buying a scorpion and a warthog, then getting the free brute chopper from the warthog, and then getting another free one cuz you bought two?
