Meiko Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 My least favorite Hero Factory set(s) would probably be the 2.0 heroes. I liked the overall design of them, but there was very little diversity between them.My opinion might change however, because I haven't gotten any sets since last year. If I had some 2012 sets, I might be able to judge them as well.

Squishyfrog Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I like all my Hero Factory sets at least a fair amount, but Raw-Jaw is my least favorite, mainly for the reasons you listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Takanuinuva Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I really like the Raw-Jaw Figure. But I Didn't like the Fire Lord set that much. His prototype design was way better. Luckily I've revamped my Fire Lord to look much better than the original set Quote I am Takanui Nuva. The Toa Nuva of Light I also go by Baron Von Brickenstein AFOL, Gamer and overall nice person.

Gatanui Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I think everyone agrees that Fire Lord isn´t precisely a marvel of the new building system. -Gata Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyichir Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I've liked most of the sets, but Scorpio never really appealed to me. While he has his fair share of awesome lime-green parts, I don't really like his (admittedly creative) build, nor do I like the fact that his legs aren't even all stylistically compatible with each-other.Everyone keeps saying Raw Jaw. I loved Raw Jaw, in all his oddly-proportioned glory. http://www.bzpower.com/board/public/style_emoticons/default/sighw.gif Quote Formerly Lyichir: Rachira of Influence Aanchir's and Meiko's brother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aanchir Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 My least favorite set would probably be Speeda Demon. While the concept of a motorbike-riding villain is certainly cool, and purple parts are always nice, his bike feels much flimsier than Furno's from 2010, there aren't many useful purple parts, and it doesn't make too much use of the new building system. The figure himself has an interesting colorscheme, but his torso armor feels incomplete, and the figure as a whole feels more generic than the other villains for the year. I do like his helmet, though.When I first started thinking about this, I was sure that my least favorite would be one of the ones from before the new building system, but while those aren't quite as versatile as newer sets, nor as stylistically consistent in many cases, they all have finished-looking designs and a lot of personality.

Ehlekdude Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Out of the ones I own, it's Nitroblast. Although he has some spectacular pieces, he just doesn't really work for me. Out of the ones that I don't own, that huge Stormer coming out in the summer makes Nitro look beautiful. Stormer looks just so clumsy, not at all sleek and bad designs everywhere IMO.

Akuna Toa of Sonics Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Fire Lord is just a mess. But Breakout Furno is up there too. Quote Does anyone want to play the Master Chief Collection with me?

Ptah Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 There are two sets I've actively avoided. I guess they fit in least favorite category. That would be Waspix and Scorpio, because after 10 years of Bionicle a wasp and a scorpion, again? These two are like Lego's default monsters. It seems uncreative from a very creative company.I really got tweaked with Zesk and the Mistika wasp Makuta (the name escapes me) both seem to so much less that the designers ability. So when I saw Scorpio in the Savage Planet line I skipped it. When Waspix comes out this summer, I will buy it for the wings, but MOC the set into something else.

FrozenFlash Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 (edited) My least favorite is probably Stormer XL. It feels like he's a complete mess with his really bulky armor. Edited April 22, 2012 by Veigar's Shadow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballom Nom Nom Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Fire Lord looks terrible, especially with that wreck that's supposed to be a face.~B~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wotz Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 The 2.0 villains. They just felt like they'd been thrown together on a whim. their colour schemes weren't very consistent, they've got faces on the backs of their heads and their construction just isn't any more interesting or clever than the heroes.

Protodite Karzahni Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I've gotta say Drilldozer. He's just an ugly set with his short size, lackluster tail, dual sided helmet, weirdly smooth body armour and completely awkward drill arm. Quote I wrote stories once. They were okay.
