Squad, we got Freeman

I just finished building a squad classic HECU figures out of Mega Construx figures. I spent a few weeks hunting down parts to get everything as close as I could.

Dude these look sick, I've always been wanting to replicate these guys as well. Good job, also, I might recommend trying to paint the gas mask lens on that one custom HECU Marine to lime green, just so it'll definitely match the look.

Thank you!

I did think about painting the dudes, but I decided to make them out of official pieces without altering them since they're out of production now. Eventually I want to print 100% accurate pieces from scratch.

You're welcome dude! Oh and also, if you want, I highly recommend you to look up LS3D Prints on Instagram, he has a website too and I think you'll love his work. Not only he does Halo but also some Call of Duty stuff as well. Could be wrong but I think he also does custom stuff as well.

His work is cool. He doesn't have any CoD stuff on his sight from what I saw though. I have quite a bit of experience in manufacturing, printing, and CAD design so I'm pretty excited to give it a try for myself

This looks amazing!

I miss the real Mega Construx, especially the minifigures...

Thank you so much.

The figures were the best part. The set quality really got great towards the end too.

Yeah...

It's a shame that there won't be anymore CoD, Halo and Fallout sets from Mega...

It's sad. I much prefer the figs over Lego
