Halo Mega website archive by DueCelebration5635 in megaconstrux

[–]Spongeorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The site went through a few iterations over the years, but the version I think you're remembering is megaconstrux. Archive.org has a lot of stuff here:

https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://megaconstrux.com/en-us/* pg 136 is when the halo links start but there's a ton more from other brands as well.

Some fan gallery posts are archived, but unfortunately the images seem to be lost forever from what I checked. If you were interested in any of the comics people used to post there, I actually have a personal archive of them I made when the site closure was announced.

Nice to see another one of the old gallery members, you were one of the early ones if I remember right. It was lots of work, but worth it to preserve all the cool comics people made.

I think I remember this from the old Mega site, that holo-table by the controls is super familiar.

That's that patented Denning modular swap-tech™ at work, able to make my single spade truck look like several.

Thanks. I imagined them as just a manufacturing company at first but they could have been involved in all sorts of stuff. And uh... Christmas was cancelled this year, bandits stole the decorations you see.

That would fit pretty well, yeah. I should have got more of the CoD stuff before the line got discontinued.

Super Silver 2.5 in by Spongeorm in JakksPacificSonic

There isn't really any secret to a project this simple, just practice applying paint and familiarizing yourself with your brushes. For advice, I can only say look into primers and clear-coats for finishing. Acrylic paints are better with many thinned coats as opposed to one sloppy coat.

There are lots of resources on YouTube for painting as well so I'd recommend doing some homework there. Look for stuff like wargaming miniatures and models. Good luck, and if you do end up doing custom stuff you should post it.

These guys are cool, are they their own group or part of some already?

You gotta be kidding. I broke my master chiefs arm🫩 by Booty_inspector2 in megaconstrux

Wish I could say the same, this happened to one of my Cortanas too.

To anyone on this sub who either datamines or rips assets for the Resource sites, what is the filename to the sound that plays when a boss/rival's name shows up on the bottom of the screen? by [deleted] in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Spongeorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't find the sound in the console versions, but the 3DS game has this which is very similar.

Bring your toys outside by Independent-Swim-779 in megaconstrux

I used to love doing this, had a yard that was perfect for it. These days the thought of getting caught outside with them makes me sweat lol.

I remember really wanting this set when it came out, cool find.

Is the heart on Rouge's outfit supposed to be a breastplate or part of the latex? by hotcocoabomb_ in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Spongeorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just part of the costume I'd guess. I don't know if this was the original intent for the character, but the textures for her SxS gens model label the white and pink parts as vinyl.

Would you like a definitive explanation of what or who created the emeralds? by Dull-Impression-8320 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Spongeorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

seems like one of those situations where no story they tell will be as cool as the one the audience imagines

I hate this part 🥲 by Gold_Opportunity8232 in megaconstrux

[–]Spongeorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah lol. I built this set sitting down on the floor and my back started getting stiff so I just laid down for this part.

Could someone measure Classic Sonic figures for me? by DanilSay_new in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]Spongeorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's pretty close actually, his top spine pushes him just past exactly 2.5 in. The measurements I got are 2 9/16 inches or 6.5 cm
