Mega Bloks/LEGO Halo 2 Shade Turret Instructions

This is a custom made instructional guide for building three versions of a Halo 2 Shade Turret, two made with Mega Bloks and one with LEGO.

Your purchase grants you access to three PDF parts lists and instructional guides featuring carefully curated photographs of each step of the building process. It also includes an XML file that can be used to purchase the LEGO pieces needed from Bricklink.com. Instructions for how to use the XML file are included in the email send with your purchase. I also have a video explaining the process that can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Jv3EnJhjU4&t=2s

Click "Preview" above to see a complete parts list including all Mega and/or LEGO parts and lighting components needed, as well as suggested Mega figures and vehicles (if applicable).

Depending on the pieces you use, each build requires approximately 62 parts (not including figures).

The estimated cost of the LEGO parts needed for this build is AUD$14 (~USD$10) at the time of writing (July 2026).

Thank you for your purchase and I hope you enjoy the build!
