Edit: Never noticed that the images were just links...that was weird. Just like before, this is based off of a real dinosaur. Here's the wiki for more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarbosaurus Tyrannosaurs were among the most successful groups of dinosaurs on the planet. Confirmed to have feathers, and having spread influence throughout much of the northern hemisphere, no group of dinosaurs their size could outcompete them, forcing the long-established Carnosaurs to either go extinct or follow their traditional prey south into continents like Africa and South America. Their kind had their early beginnings in the Late Jurassic and Early Cretaceous as small coelurosaurs in Asia, but began to grow in size quickly, and before long they became one of the most profound dinosaurs to date. Tarbosaurus bataar is T.Rex's Mongolian cousin. Both lived roughly around the same time, and appeared so similar many thought that they were the exact same animal. Despite this, Tarbosaurus is just different from Tyrannosaurus that they are considered different species, albeit Tarbosaurus only has one species under its genus; Bataar. In terms of size, Tarbosaurus comes just under Tyrannosaurus, between 10-12 meters in length (33-39 feet), but they were still formidable enough to become the dominant predators in their region in the Gobi Desert, likely hunting the local ornithischian cuisine; the Saurolophus; which traveled to and from the desert in migrating herds. Despite how big it was, most of the Gobi was safe from these monsters due to the fact that most creatures that lived there were too small to be worth chasing, such as the local Velociraptor and their favorite food the Protoceratops. Like all Tyrannosaurs, Tarbosaurus likely had a very powerful bite; everything lay within its massive skull, a trait that made the Tyrannosaurs unique and deadly killers. Unlike Carnosaurs, whose focus was to tear big holes in their prey and make them bleed to death, Tyrannosaurs could actually crush bone, leading for some paleontologists to assume that they could have been glorified turkey vultures instead of hunters. Regardless of how they ate, it is known fact that wherever a Tyrannosaur fossil showed up in the Cretaceous rock, very few predators it size would be in the area for long, as nothing could compete with that giant eating machine. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Whoever designed the Dragon Bolt head without bothering to think of ways for it to work without the weird Brain Attack bug is on my hit list. Took forever to figure out how to set the head up, but I'm pretty proud of the way it turned out. I initially was trying to think of a cool Dinosaur that would fight my Suchomimus MoC from earlier in 1x1 combat stop motion, and wound up settling for the Tyrannosaur that was within its relative size range. It's going to be fun to set up, though a pain since I'm going to be using a blue sheet of paper and a blue shirt on a cardboard box to act as my stage, and as you can see...Tarby over here is kind of...blue...yeah. Need to rethink my setup methinks. Probably the best part about this build is that it poses really well...I'm not even kidding. Most of my old pieces are so worn out that things move really loosely, which is great for well-loved toys and action figures but rather terrible for a stop motion subject.

I enjoyed listening to the music in the background of these 2010 HF commercials: http://youtu.be/5UQ8ckX0KSs?t=9s http://youtu.be/m7orTR4MZvQ?t=9s However, I relied on a YouTube video that is now gone. I can't find it using conventional methods. If anyone could share it, I would be grateful. Come to think of it, perhaps the HF OST should be archived before it is too late?

I personally prefer BIONICLE, but its kinda sad that Hero Factory is coming to an end now, probably to never return. While Bionicle is unique in its own manner, with the absence of ALL OTHER constraction aside from it from here on out (No Chima Ultrabuild, no Superhero Ultrabuild, No Hero Factory, etc) might impact how useful the pieces we get will be. Building organic creatures will be harder, due to the lack of themes that have them, as well as strictly mechanical beings, since BIONICLE's elements are much more specific to its own biomechanical aesthetic. As a result, we won't be getting many new parts of these types to work with in the CCBS system. Another reason I will be missing it, is the fact that more sets like Invasion From Below from here on out could have been pretty cool! Sure, it probably couldn't have co-existed with bionicle, to avoid it cannibalizing bionicle's sales. But I think with some creativity and freedom with Hero Factory being less story driven then something like BIONICLE, they could have started making sets that could continue the Kaiju VS Mecha theme of Invasion From Below. But, alas, it is gone. Oh well. Now to get all the Bionicle 2015 sets.

I'm not sure if I should call it a revamp... but its a revamp now! This is him in Standard form. The back... Now, ready for attack form??? He has a Laser arm and a "Perch" for his drone! He even has a Laser sword! He is now ready to fight Hero Factory and BRING BACK BIONICLE! Don't mess with him!
-
This is me, Renzari! I built this originally in 2011 and have been upgrading 'till now. With Bionicle's return, this is the last version of Renzari. Nothing much to say but; "Renzari's right arm is made of Crystallized Fire energy that transfers its energy to the blade to unleash fire chaos!"

I am wondering if they can actually break.

A joke I had in mind and I wanted to do (kudos if you get it), basically a combination of Natalie Breez from Hero Factory and Aigis from Persona 3. Also added some variety with Breez's arsenal through the years. Gallery

I just signed up to put this here, I got this set 4 years ago from Target, I decided since to save it and put it up for auction on eBay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/131352425334?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 -
THE END OF HERO FACTORY: HOW HF WAS TAKEN DOWN WITH IT'S EXCESSIVE PLOTHOLES CHAPTER 1 After the events in Antropolis City, the Alpha Team was unloading the Hero Pod that had taken them back to Makuhero City. One worker, who wasn't the brightest bulb, saw an organic capsule and brought it inside the Hero Factory to the gear storage center, thinking it the Hero Factory's new "go-green" approach to gear kits. "Gah, we just can't get eco-safe enough." He threw it into the storage center, not knowing that it was secretly a hidden cocoon from the aliens... and that it had twins. Meanwhile, in an undisclosed location, a hidden baddie hid in darkness, with only an OP computer to give him light. He felt like he should laugh maniacally, but that would be a waste of energy. He brought up the files of Hero Factory once more. He finally, after what felt like a year, plugged the computer into the state-of-the-art 3D printer, capable of replicating things up to the size of the Borg Kalifa, the largest building in the galaxy. That would be more than enough size to create the Hero Factory building assembly... and build an army of Quaza-powered villains. How would he get the Quaza? Why, he had Quaza coming out of his ears! He was evil, dangerous, and had a grudge after being created as a set but never being included into the movie. His name... was CORE HUNTER. Back in the original HF, the team was finishing helping Stormer to clean the cocoon goo off of his armor. "Ugh. Thanks, guys." Stormer said in his completely new accent that he had never had before the events of Invasion from Below. "No problem, Stormer!" Surge said in an all-new Australian accent. "That's what friends do!" Suddenly, two giant tunneler beasts erupted from the gear storage center. "How did they get here?!" Breez asked. "Hello! I can help..." Breez started saying to the beasts, but they just picked her up, ate her, and spit out her Quaza core. "Breeeeeeeeeeeeez!!!" a nearby Nex shouted. He ran to the beast, trying to rescue the girl that he admitted his feelings about on Quatros, only to be stepped on. "Come on, heroes!" Evo shouted. "We need battle machines!" But there were no battle machines, or any defences at all whatsoever inside the Factory since Mr. Makhuro had thought that no one would be so stupid that they would try to bust into HF. "Curse that Mr. Makhuro!" Rocka shouted, only to be shut down remotely by the remote angst-towards-Makhuro-tracker. When the heroes, who appeared to be the only ones inside the factory, or at least the only ones who mattered, thought this couldn't get any worse, it did. TO BE CONTINUED...

Hi, guys! As the title says, what Hero Facotry character would you want to dress as for Halloween? I know Halloween happened a week and two days ago, but I am just asking. A Hero Facotry costume doesn't have to be real or fake. It could be either way (even though there are no Hero Facotry costumes existing as much as I know). For me, I would dress as Bulk, Stringer, Thunder, Rotor, Von Nebula, Drilldozer, Fire Lord, Rocka, Raw-Jaw, Black Phantom, Splitface, Core Hunter, Pyrox, Bruizer, Ogrum, Frost Beast, or Splitter Beast. I know it's a lot, but these are the characters that I feel would prefer to dress as. So, there. You see what I mean? Anyway, what about you guys? -
Hi, guys! I know that some of us are talking about the live-action Hero Factory movie, which we last heard being first said in 2012, which was two years ago, but it is just being planned now, and Universal Studios are trying to get rights in making the movie. In this topic, I am not talking about what happened to the movie; I am talking about how would you think it should look like. For example, since we heard that it would be written by the guys that wrote for a movie, Predators, in 2010, I can come up with some suggestions about how the movie would look like: I think the movie should be look like a mix of Robots in 2005, the Avengers in 2012, Real Steel in 2011, Star Wars, Pacific Rim in 2013, and the live-action Transformers film series. These are live-action movies that went very well, and many people loved them because of that. We all know that Hero Factory is kind of like these things, so I believe it could work that way. For the story, I would like the movie to be about the Hero Factory heroes, including mainly the Alpha 1 Team, fighting against at least the mysterious villain from the end of the second Breakout episode, who reveals to be Von Nebula the whole time (I could tell by his shown arm with a clawed hand) and uses their plans stolen by Black Phantom to create a Villain Factory to destroy the Hero Factory. The Villain Factory would create evil versions of the Hero Factory heroes that use Anti-Quaza, which Black Phantom sort of showed in the second Breakout episode, for cores, making them evil. Von Nebula would also use the Anti-Heroes as an army to not only destroy the Hero Factory but to take over the galaxy and/or perhaps the universe. For the setting, it would be at least the Makuhero planet, Makuhero City and the Hero Factory building, Planet Earth (because usually live-action movies take place in, and it exists in the Hero Factory universe), and perhaps the Villain Factory. For the characters, I think obviously the Alpha 1 Team, perhaps at least Mr. Makuro, Professor Zib, Quadal, Von Nebula, the Anti-Heroes, and some humans (because it is a live-action movie) would be the main characters. There could be more characters as I feel appearing in the movie as like optional guest stars. I suggest that, in my feeling, the actors who would play the characters would be: 1. Preston Stormer - John Schneider or Hugh Jackman (played Wolverine in the X-Men movies who could have similar anger and revenge issues as Preston, so I believe that could work) 2. William Furno - Eric Christian Olsen or Josh Keaton 3. Daniel Rocka - Andrew Garfield (played Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man movie series who could share some similar traits as Rocka does, so I believe that could work) 4. Dunkan Bulk - Christopher B. Duncan or Dwayne Johnson 5. Jimi Stringer - Stephen Stanton or Billy Ray Cyrus (played in a live-action movie called The Spy Next Door in 2010 who is like Stringer in some ways, such as being a musical type person, so I believe that could work) 6. Mark Surge - Bryton James or Charlie Day 7. Natalie Breez - Jean Louisa Kelly or Scarlett Johansson 8. Julius Nex - Jason Canning or Jeremy Howard 9. Nathan Evo - Jason London 10. Zib - Henry Winkler 11. Mr. Makuro - Malcolm McDowell or Morgan Freeman 12. Daniela Capricorn - Jennifer Coolidge (optional in a funny way) 13. Thresher - Samuel Jackson (optional in an exciting way) 14. Von Nebula - Mark Hamill or Alfred Molina 15. Voltix - Rick Wasserman or Jamie Foxx (played Electro in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 this year, so I believe it could work, but Voltix is just optional) 16. Core Hunter - Tom Hardy (played Bane in The Dark Knight Rises in 2012, so I believe it could work, but Core Hunter is just optional in an exciting way) 17. Anti-Heroes - I don't know 18. Quadal - no one 19. Capricorn's camera robot - no one (optional in a funny way) 20. Humans - I don't know. I choose Voltix and Core Hunter because they are not recaptured by the Hero Factory. Voltix is said to be still on the loose while Core Hunter disappeared into his unknown fate in The Doom Box book. I thought it would be cool to include them because I would like them to be recaptured finally and they're cool. Here's also why and how: Voltix would at least help Von Nebula charge up the Villain Factory while Core Hunter would be revealed to have survived his disappearance as he is at least collecting Anti-Quaza to power the Anti-Heroes (because he collects Hero cores, after all), but these two guys are just optional. So, there. You see what I mean? Anyway, I hope that if the movie will be made and released, it would do better than the TV series, like character development. I am just saying all my feelings about these things as my image of what I would like the movie to look like. Also anyway, what do you guys think of all this?

So. First topic on BZP. Yay. So, based on the title, this is my revamp of Meltdown, the Hero Factory villain. He was always a favorite of mine, so I decided to remake him. I guess I'll just post a link to the MOCpage? I don't know the requirements for uploading pictures or posting links, so if someone would help me, that would be great. http://mocpages.com/moc.php/397694 Hope you guys enjoy.

Just a hero I built a while ago. Simple, but I like him. I think his name ended up being Darius Brawler? here is a link For those curious, he uses two torso skeleton pieces, one as his main skeleton and one to give him the extra bulk.

I was just in my room playing with Breez Flea Machine, a set that I got at the LEGO store last week. It's been on my wish list since before it came out, because I really love its design. The LEGO Group really showed great creativity with this year's Invasion from Below sets and I think it totally paid off. Generally the set meets all of my expectations. Non-traditional design? Check. Its tripod build and heavy use of Technic really help it stand out from previous Hero Factory sets. It's also helped by its bulky leg armor and tiny feet, which give it a very nimble look (though with only three legs and such a tiny footprint, it can't hold TOO many different poses). Great parts? Check. The Bright Yellowish Green square shell detail pieces are great. It DOES have a lovely printed shell like the other machines, though it's a different size and color than usual. The mini-heroes in general have great designs, and Breez is no exception. I'd be amiss if I didn't also mention the cool new cocoon petals! Awesome functions? Check! At first I was a little bit disappointed with the claw, because it snagged every time I tried to flick it so I thought I'd be forced to extend it manually with the "Hand of God". Laaaaame. But then I realized that it was just the winch that was getting caught. If you unwind the winch before firing, it works like a charm! Then you can use it as a grappling hook, and the set even includes a zip-line piece that came out during my childhood, so Breez can slide down the cable to traverse a gap! It also works nicely for grabbing and retrieving the cocoon. Plus, she even comes with a click-shooter — the first one I've gotten in a set, though I bought some from a vendor at Brickfair back in August. For those who aren't aware, these are tiny handheld shooters that fire a 1x1 round plate with surprising distance and power when you press the trigger. Considering how bulky, obtrusive, and difficult to integrate many previous LEGO shooters have been, this thing feels like a dream come true! The variations on the concept coming out next year will hopefully have similar efficacy. But then there's something else. A regular flick missile launcher. And when I was playing with the set earlier, I couldn't help thinking this was probably one of the set's least impressive functions. Don't get me wrong, I love flick missiles! Or I did, back when they were one of the most compact, least obtrusive, and most versatile launcher designs. This year the LEGO Group introduced lots of amazing new launchers, including the click shooter. With a basic click shooter already in the set, I thought a pair of flick missiles would be kind of pointless and superfluous. It's not like they'd even work that well just slapped on the side of the set like that, right? Well, it turns out I was wrong. Maybe I've been wrong for the past five or six years of my life, in fact. Maybe everything I know is a lie. Because just on a whim, I flicked that missile, expecting it to fly maybe eight or ten inches. And instead, like some kind of miracle, it sailed three or four meters, over my twin brother's bed, and landed in the far corner of the room. I actually thought it had misfired and gone straight into the ground before I heard it land on the other side of the room. I was flabbergasted. Flick missiles aren't supposed to work that well. Not from my experience. Probably not from MOST people's experience, judging from all the hate I see for them in reviews. Surely this had to be some kind of fluke, right? After I found the missile, I returned it to the launcher and decided to try again. This time, I kind of screwed up. Instead of launching one missile, my finger accidentally hit both. Great, another misfire, I thought, before I heard yet another click of a tiny plastic missile hitting something hard on the far side of the room. I found the first of the two missiles in the closet, about as far away from where I launched it as the previous launch had taken it. I still haven't found the second. Maybe I could get a blacklight to help look for it, since it does have a convenient fluorescent green tip. It didn't land in either of the trash cans over there, so it will have to turn up eventually. But wherever it ended up, today I learned something amazing. Discounting the possibility of witchcraft, or the possibility that the last hour and a half of my life has all been some crazy dream... my flick game is surprisingly strong.

With HF seemingly on it's way out this got me thinking about how it could have been saved which then gave me the idea to make this topic, so if you had control over hero factory how would you have changed the theme? P.S Please don't turn this topic into a giant rant about HF.

Official Hero Factory Facebook Page Shut Down
Art Vandelay posted a topic in Hero Factory Discussion
Hero Factory's official Facebook was quietly shut down today. I suspect the announcement of its cancellation isn't far off. I'd say most likely after NYCC, because they'll want to space out the announcement of BIONICLE 2015 and the announcement of Hero Factory's cancellation pretty well. Are you sad that HF is gone? I wish that it could have gotten a proper sendoff wave like the Stars for BIONICLE, but I admit I'm glad that it will be completely out of BIONICLE's way in 2015.- 45 replies

I remember back in 2012 hearing about a potential live-action movie based on HF, lego were supposedly discussing the idea with universal and it would have been written by the same guys who did predator. But since then nothing's been heard about it, so it leaves a lot of questions such as, what happened to it? Why did it(presumably)get cancelled? Was it even true? And I also ask you would it have been a good idea and what would it have been like? -
Well, as is advertised in my signature, i've started a thing in the comics forum called A Grim Development. for which i actually originally made several character design models! (that i have recently re-made.) and i figured i'd post them too. WARNING! these are spoilers for the aforementioned comic, and are a long ways from appearing in it! if you are the kinda guy who hates being spoiled, i'd suggest holding out on clicking those images! anyway, i've been on a kick of making "possible set" models in LDD, so these'll all look sorta like a set you'd probs see on store shelves? (or my best relation to.) ??? 65 pieces ??? 83 pieces ??? 46 pieces Overload 73 pieces one of the lowest ranking brutes, overload has taken quite a beating. don't think he lets that keep him down though, as the many gaps in his worn-out shell release massive electrical surges he can manipulate in combat! beware Overload's snapping claw and flailing electrical wires! ??? 78 pieces ??? ------------------------------------------------------- I've got a couple more to fix up and then render, so keep an eye out! (unless you fall under the category mentioned in the warning.)

Hello there! I suppose it's time to post my first MOC on BZP. I love the only hero of the Alpha Team, so I decided to give her more feminine look. Also, I always wanted to do an experiment of CCBS and oldschool parts. I'm not great in english, so no more words. Front It took me about a week to build her, and the idea of her was in the air for about a year along with WIPs Another shot Here i pulled her arms up so you can see the construction. Close up Legs Back Yes, that's Pakari on her butt. Back Random pose So, that's all, hope you enjoyed my Natalie. Tremah

well, this is a project i'v had in the pipes (the pipes in my brain) for a while now, and hey, it's about time it showed some fruit! it's worth mentioning (to me at least) that this was going to be written, and in the Epics forum. but, as you can see in my Art Topic, that has clearly changed. another note: this'll get kinda dark, but I'm trying my darndest to keep it within BZP appropriate levels of dark (nothing worse than slight oozing blood-analogue from the mechzombies is all.) and, though i'm quite capable of drawing someone getting disemboweled in full view, (no i won't link that!) i like my proto where it is, thank you. ^haha, look at the rambling, this is a comic topic! where's the comic?

I am way behind writing up my Brickfair recap, so I'm going to just go over some of the highlights. Shortly after I arrived, I learned that Delwyn Buckler got featured on the back cover of the event program! Awesome! Here's my haul from vendors and yard sales. It includes a lot of cool stuff, including a bunch of useful Hero Factory parts, six LEGO Friends mini-dolls for customizing, and a UV light for my MOC during the World of Lights event on Friday. At the live auction on Friday, Nukaya's Benny painting became set a BrickFair record for the highest bid on a single item, selling for two thousand dollars! It was amazing to be there to hear the bids continue to climb! The World of Lights was AMAZING! Not quite as great as it could have been, maybe, because the convention center's emergency lights flooded out some parts Here's my submarine all lit up. I will have plenty of uses for that blacklight in the future, I'm sure! This guy was also amazing! On Sunday I participated in the BZPower parts draft. Five other participants and I chose parts from ten copies of 44021 Splitter Beast vs Furno & Evo. Here's my haul — I chose some of the largest and heaviest pieces, apparently, but I have already found some great uses for them! I participated in the Hatpile, contributing just one hat. Maybe I'll bring more next year. My Blacktron Vivisector won the Brickee award for "Best Small Space Craft"! I was totally surprised when I found out! Here's a picture of it with the trophy (sorry it's blurry)! I went to dinner with fourteen other BZPower members on Sunday. Overall, the food was mediocre and the service was execrable (I'm probably going to do my best never to eat at a Longhorn Steakhouse again), but the company of my fellow BZPower members was fantastic. Overall, I had a fantastic time at BrickFair this year. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again next year! Especially since next year *drum roll* BronyCon and BrickFair are going to be on different weekends! So for the first time, I'm going to be able to go to both events! Yay!

Flickr A curiously crystallized giant insect known to occasionally terrorize cities. Perhaps throw a Rock Pikmin at it? AKA some fun making a minor MOC out of the new trans light blue pieces from Crystal Beast and Stormer. With Insectoids wings thrown in for good measure because come on, who didn't like the Insectoids? Plus the darker trans blue makes a good combination with the lighter. ~B~
