So What Hero Factory Stuff Did You Get This Week?


Smitty

Recommended Posts

I got a Furno 2.0, he was good for parts. My son got a Ultra Build Green Lantern. So what did y'all get?

At some point you realize that you are but a speck in the Universe.


That you time in this worlds is but a blink.


You see the whole of reality as it unfolds before you.


You try to see how far you can reach, and it’s not that far past your face.


But then you come back from the brink.


You hold them in your arms again.


And you know that you are where their world begins.


You are their rock.

I had received Rocka (4th series) today as a gift. I also got a few gift cards so I think I'll pick up some 2.0 heroes/3.0 villains. I want to stock up on those before I get into 4th series.

I AM A TOA OF SOUND. I CAN IDENTIFY DRUM N BASS BY THE VIBRATION OF THE GROUND. I CAN HEAR MAKUTA ROAR FROM MILES AWAY. I AM JUST THAT FREAKING AWESOME.

Got Raw-Jaw. He's pretty cool.-TNTOS-

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

I got Nitroblast on clearance at a Target for $10, along with 2 full Nui-Rama sets for Christmas.He's my favorite HF villain so far, next to Rotor and the Witch Doctor.

Raw-Jaw, Rocka XL, Fangz, and Witch Doctor. They're definitely going to be helpful for pieces, although Witch Doctor is not really my favorite HF set thus far. The rest are good, even if they aren't really great.~ BioGio

I didn't get any HF sets, but I don't mind because I'm not a huge fan of the line anyway. Not that it's bad, I just don't have an interest in it. =/

On the day the wall came down / They threw the locks onto the ground

And with glasses high / We raised a cry / For freedom had arrived

 

On the day the wall came down / The ship of fools had finally run aground

Promises lit up the night / Like paper doves in flight

 

I dreamed you had left my side / No warmth, not even pride remained

And even though you needed me / It was clear that I could not do a thing for you

 

Now life devalues day by day / As friends and neighbors turn away

And there's a change that even with regret / Cannot be undone

 

Now frontiers shift like desert sands / While nations wash their bloodied hands

Of loyalty, of history / In shades of grey

 

I woke to the sound of drums / The music played, the morning sun streamed in

I turned and I looked at you / And all but the bitter residues slipped away

 

slipped away...

I exchanged a Transformer my dad got me that I did not want for Toxic Repa yester day so that kind of counts

I got Rocka, Evo, Surge, Black Phantom, Toxic Reapa, Jawblade, and Splitface.

Why are orange and black such a good color Combination ? Purple is pretty, and so is blue. Pink hurts your eyes, green is quite mellowing, black is very threatning, red is cool, orange is SO awesome, yellow's hard to read... But you can't see white at all! Oh, wait. I forgot brown.

 

Here's my thoughts: If a person tells the truth and says, " I always lie," Is he lying? Or is he telling the truth? And what has a mouth, but no head, and a body, but no torso? Do caterpillars like to tend to supporting colum of stone's every need? Or is that name misleading by nature? Speaking of nature, why are the children of animals called offspring? don't many young beasts come alive in spring, and thus, should be called onspring? Heeeeeeyy..... I got the first post on a page for the first time. Who knows; it may happen again. What the... It did happen again... and again...

 

YEAH! I'M ENCOUNTERING PROTODERMIS!

Surge, Nex and Breez 2.0. Yes, 2.0. I'm a bit behind when it comes to Hero Factory, as I don't invest into it as much as I did with Bionicle, but I prefer the parts of the 2.0 characters to the Breakout ones, as (in my opinion) they encourage more creativity.

I personally like the Breakout parts, as they mostly stay consistent with the 2.0 sets' aesthetic style while introducing new parts like the large spherical shell detail pieces, the new torso armor with its additional attachment points and capacity for printing, and of course lots of lovely new weapon pieces.Which Breakout parts in particular do you feel limit creativity?

I can speak for Wotsiznaim, but the printed torso armor could make MoCing harder.

When I made this thread it was more for a "Christmas haul bragging" kind of thing...

The helmets and the chest pieces. I find they're quite specific to their characters. In any case, I do intend to buy Breez, Evo and Black Phantom, simply because they look AWESOME :P But for this week, it was 2.0s.
I guess I see your point. Personally, I think the chest pieces are arguably less character-specific than the printed "name badges" of the 2.0 and 3.0 heroes, but it's true that unprinted leg and arm shells are more common than unprinted torso shells.The 1.0/Breakout helmets are more character-specific than the 2.0 and 3.0 helmets in some ways (not as much range of customization on a two-piece head and helmet than on a three-piece head, helmet, and helmet accessory), but then again that's one thing that some people like about them. I heard many criticisms of the 2.0 helmets for how generic they felt compared to the previous helmet designs. Anyway, BIONICLE masks also had fairly character-specific designs a lot of the time, and that didn't stop those from being used on all scores of MOCs.
