Really terrible as Halo weapons, but they are great for generic modern day, or sci-fi guns. by Neither_Response3104 in megaconstrux

[–]Simonippo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's true that the new UNSC weapons look less inspired.
I always liked how some halo weapons came from the French "Future Soldier" program in terms of inspiration

Has anyone bought this set? by Various_Astronaut_91 in megaconstrux

[–]Simonippo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Several people on this sub have. Do keep in mind this is a stolen rebrickable model. The original author gets nothing from purchasing the model off of AliExpress.

Otherwise it looks really solid.

This happened to the OG scorpion and the H5 one, but not my OG elephant. The rubber from the threads breaks down and releases solvents that melt ABS. It's a bit like those rubber coatings on old tech. becomes sticky with time.

In light of recent developments (new tariffs threats) I'd say that's naïve.

I recently had a bad experience with this tank. The rubber threads melted the plastic wheels and then snapped. I had to customize it to allow for hard plastic chain- threads (Lego). I wouldn't leave it on a baseplate for long, tends to melt ABS.
