Hapori Tohu Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Today we look at the last of this year's Hero Factory sets, 6221 Nex. Blog Leader DeeVee picked up this orange hero and felt compelled to share his thoughts. Read on to see if he's a worthy addition to your collection!View the full article Quote News Forums Q&A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takanuinuva Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 (edited) With that ends the Breakout reviews.Nex is a decent set. My only gripe is the hand should have been orange and the chestplate should have been orange with white printing. Edited September 20, 2012 by Takanuinuva Quote I am Takanui Nuva.

FrozenFlash Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 There goes the Breakout reviews. Anyways, Nex is actually pretty cool. The white chestplate looks really good. Unfortunately, he doesn't have 2 hands so that pretty much kills most of the set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casperger Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I COULD OVERLOOK ANY OF THE FLAWS IF HIS HELMET WASN'T TRYING TO BE AN EXACT COPY OF THE 2.0. I UNDERSTAND BEING REMINISCENT, LIKE THEY DID WITH EVO. I DUNNO, I JUST FIND HIS HELMET A LITTLE AKWARD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Smoke Monster Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I think that his chest could've used more orange and less white.But anyway, thanks for the review!

Sybre Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I think the set is just pretty average and lazily thrown together. I mean, a harpoon meant to be an antenna?! And that laser gun was a bad choice. Quote mindeth the cobwebs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aanchir Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Love this guy. He's one of the weaker sets of the Breakout line, but with such a stellar line that still places him pretty high in my books. His circuit-board pattern on his chest and helmet are well suited to him (in fact, I love his helmet in general, much like Evo's), his color scheme is well-organized (which isn't to say it couldn't have been organized differently), and his weapon mirrors Evo's well while introducing its own unique look (a boxier look and a precision laser compared to Evo's bulgier Tank Arm).In general, next year's Hero Factory sets have a lot to live up to!

~garnira returns~ Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Wow! Three days, Tohu! Is this a record!?On a more serious note, while OK, I don't think I will get him. Too... mundane. I will only get the heroes if the are absolutely stellar, or have great pieces. Quote "Copy and paste me into your sig! The shadows command you!"

Mr. Cup of Fail Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 (edited) I don't like this set, Do too Laser cutter hand/arm thing. The 2.0 & 3.0 Nex are better then this. Plus he is fighting XT4, He can bloody kill Nex easy with out tryingAnyways, I think Nex is not a good set because of lack it is. The left arm do not fit with him at all, mostly the laser cutter. And they should gave him 2 hands in orange.The mask i like how they made it for the ironman head, that is good.So don't think this Nex is good for a set but it is good for MOCing.

Nex is a lot better when compared to Evo than considering him as a standalone set. But he's still a decent set on his own, with his tech motifs and awesome color scheme. He just doesn't quite match up to some of the other fabulous sets this wave like Bulk.

Bambi Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Ugh. That left hand.. Thing.. is just awful. never been to big on his color scheme. Most likely won't be picking this one up. Quote [my blog] [custom emotes] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Shockwave~ Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Eh. he's ok.but I must harshly disagree with your opinions on Evo. Evo is an awesome set.

Lyichir Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Eh. he's ok.but I must harshly disagree with your opinions on Evo. Evo is an awesome set.Whose opinions on Evo? I haven't heard anything but praise for Evo. My brother and I were just pointing out that Nex looks better when considered as a sort of foil for Evo than he does when you consider him as a standalone set. On his own, he seems significantly under-armed compared to most of his Hero brethren. But he contrasts beautifully with Evo; Nex's bulky, boxy laser cutter mirrors Evo's more streamlined "tank arm", and Nex's transistor pattern is similar to the circuit-board pattern on Evo.

Lenny7092 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Nex's helmet and laser cutter weapon look cool. His shoulder armor look cool, too. Quote I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
