Rockslider Has New Videos of Merging Silver and Gold Elites, as Well as Pillar of Autumn Crewman Rockslider continues to put out impressive content with a couple of new videos! Their first shows off a new color of merged elites (as well as a how-to to accomplish these merged Covenant corpses!) using merged silver and gold elites in Halo: CE. The next one seems a little creepy to me using human, but hey, the effect of merging POA crewman is pretty cool, and fun as well when they start using the grunts to help! (MacGyver10 21:33:23 UTC)
Catching Up with The Halo Community Update 05/24/18 - 'Duty in Battle' Well summer has started for the MacGyver family, but Halo news didn't get the memo to slow down (even more so than it already has during this dryspell of mainline Halo game news)! Thanks to davidfuchs for the heads up on last week's Halo Community Update! Looks like the new Fireteam arcade game is mentioned with a FAQ (canon story, coming to places other than Dave & Busters/North America), some details on upcoming e-sports stuff and MCC community playdate all in one place. (MacGyver10 21:29:33 UTC)
The Halo TV Series with Steven Spielberg Possibly Starting to Film in October in Budapest, Hungary While we might need to take this with a grain of salt right now, it seems the Halo TV series might have a filming location and start time for this October in Budapest, Hungary.

Latest Forward Unto Dawn FUDcast. Episode 25, 'Put That On Your Dating Profile' On the latest episode of the Forward Unto Dawn podcast... Dani and David are joined by Dildev and Defguru (guess your name must start with a 'D' to be on this week) to talk about the year in Halo, hopes for the future, and pour one out for the unjustly maligned Halo: The Flood. (MacGyver10 23:02:25 UTC)
Rockslider Searches for Elusive 'Yeti Flood' Rockslider goes up against the flood in the beginning of 343 Guilty Spark, not content to just watch them set off the motion tracker. There's some nice spawn control shown, but when he starts tagging the flood with plasma grenades, things get impressive! (MacGyver10 14:16:25 UTC)

Revell's new SnapTite Pelican... built Revell has kicked off a new line of Combat-Ready Vehicle Model Kids, and they were kind enough to send along the UNSC Pelican. I don't even want to TELL you how many decades it's been since I put together a model... but I can guarantee you it's never been this easy. I'm pretty incompetent, and it still took only 20 minutes. Check out the timelapse below! They're currently selling a Warthog, a Wraith, and a Scorpion, in addition to this Pelican. Batteries are included!

The Complete, Unabridged Story of Red vs Blue. Abridged. The new episodes of Red Vs Blue started this past weekend, but I'm sure there are many who haven't been following the longest running web series ever since it's beginning (here on HBO, by the way) in 2002, not in 2003 like their video description says. To help those people catch up, RoosterTeeth released 'The Complete, Unabridged Story of Red vs Blue. Abridged' for you! (MacGyver10 19:54:01 UTC)
