Hapori Tohu Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Today we finally get around to reviewing the last of the first wave of 2012 Hero Factory sets (if you live in Europe, otherwise it's the second set of the second wave). BZPower Forum Assistant Sisen submitted his review of Breez a while ago, but thanks to Toy Fair it got delayed. But now you can find out if this is a set meant for you!

GeluNumber1 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I'm going to either get her off eBay, or just wait until summer. Quote 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!

Takanuinuva Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I'm actually glad breez and thornraxx are coming out in the summer in north america. I'm trying to save money so having to wait for them means I can save money Quote I am Takanui Nuva. The Toa Nuva of Light I also go by Baron Von Brickenstein AFOL, Gamer and overall nice person.

Lyichir Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 "...like some prime metroid bounty hunter person."I love how the reviewers here tend to use five words where one would do.That's not sarcasm.

fishers64 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 It's a good set. I see why people complain about her being masculine looking, however. Quote Hero Factory RPG | Bionicle Mafia XXIX: Storyline & Theories Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obsessionist Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 The helmet isn't new, is it? I though they were the exact same molds as the new ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Breez is my favorite of the new Hero Factory sets. She was going to be my first set, but TLG went and pushed the U.S. release date to August... since then, I've gotten Surge, who I've also found impressive.The taller Heroes kind of bother me in terms of proportions. It's possible I'll warm up to them when I have one, but for now I feel those legs need to be a bit shorter.

Sisen Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 (edited) its not a new helmetya i said the same thing when i saw that.That's my bad. I never purchased the origianl Natalie Breez and did not realize the helmets were the same until pointed out here. The last time I even saw that helmet was more than two years ago.Sorry!

Hakann-The Bully Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Thanks Sisen for the review! Pictures have wonderful clarity as always :)So I'm guessing Nat goes well with Matt? XD? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mare Tranquillitatis Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 The helmet is still the good one of the 1.0 series and I like it. The primary weapon remains a melee one and I like it. The shield that all our new heroes have in this wave is here and I like it. But, man, how did they possibly put green and red together? And that shield-sword combo in the left arm? They RUINED Breez. I wouldn't be definitely buying it.----- Lord of the Rings -----Titles: Dark Lord, Lord of Mordor, Lord of Gifts, Lord of Barad-Dûr, Lord of the Earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before that, she had green and orange, which is slightly worse in my opinion. And the sword/shield combo is easy enough to modify, so saying that she's "ruined" might be overreacting a teensy bit.EDIT: I hope the staff gets around to fixing the filter so that M-O-D no longer is automatically changed to "moderator". It can mean a lot more than that, especially in the LEGO fandom.

It can mean a lot more than that, especially in the LEGO fandom.Correction: She's always had green and red. The Hero Core in the original Natalie Breez set was Transparent Red. I personally think the color scheme she has is excellent-- she gets the contrast lent by the use of complementary colors, but the green color is such that she doesn't look like she's Christmas colors.off-topic: the word filter was mentioned by a staff member in another topic as one of the things in line to be fixed, so let's be patient and hopefully that problem will be a thing of the past.

Hexann Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I wish they came with name tag armor they always were very awesome same with BREEZ 4.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishers64 Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 I wish they came with name tag armor they always were very awesome same with BREEZ 4.0I disagree with the number thing. If they are going to do that again ( maybe they should) then it should just be Breez. Although Lego has overused the numbers and fans complained/ joked about that, now all the fans are calling them the 4.0 line even though technically they aren't named that. Tradition dies hard.

dotcom Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 It came without a piece?No wonder you get those for free. It didn't? I think he just forgot to put the piece on while reviewing.Anyway, Breez is a pretty cool set, and I await for her release here in the US. The shields are awesome.

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 To clarify someone's doubts about my words: I know she always had this color scheme, but not with a so heavy use of red. And they were in time to change it, just like how they did with Furno. Then for the shield-sword combo: I also know this, we could be always able to change that, but it remains a nonsense, in my opinion, because it destroys part of the playability and 'coz it would need some work. And it won't be the original set anymore.----- Lord of the Rings -----Titles: Dark Lord, Lord of Mordor, Lord of Gifts, Lord of Barad-Dûr, Lord of the Earth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creep Of The Deep Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Good review, well written, pictures were a little dark though.I hope that Breez releases with the Winter Line here, otherwise I think I will have to strangle LEGO. :U Quote Do not trust corrupted memories.

I'll probably won't be getting this set though. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parazan Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) I was going to buy Breez first,because I thought she was the coolest hero,but then LEGO said "No Breez and Thornaxx for the United States of America until August".I'm going to either get her off eBay, or just wait until summer.Or Bricklink,they've got decent prices there.-CDP Edited March 11, 2012 by cooldynamyteproductions Quote Coming June 22nd: Your chance to become an ECC critic!
