The Flood is universally revered by fans as a necessary pillar of the Halo Universe. While most of us love to hate them, no one can argue that Halo would be the same without these grotesque zombies led by their giant omniscient tentacle. Over the years, Mega Brands has provided a number of figures and sets that pay homage to the Flood as we await their inevitable return to the franchise. Join the Builds with Blocks crew as they discuss the faction, gives you 10 essential Flood sets to add to your collection and name the top 3 sets in the line.

Builds with Blocks goes back to the beginning! Join Matt, Gabe, Tom and Colin as they rank the best sets based on the original Halo Wars era. Mega Bloks' first wave of products were released in 2009, based on the strategy game published the same year, and they released many more in subsequent years while improving quality. Check out how we believe these sets stack up against each other.
