MOC: Villains

[Leugi]

So yeah... I decided it was about time I made some MOCs for the new theme, these are some new villains... With some backstory! Click the images to see more of each moc.

This is Viral. It's a drone created by an evil organization. It was made for propagating the "Villain Virus" all over the world, which turns any robot into an enemy of Hero Factory. The Heroes managed to stop him just in time, without allowing him to turn anyone into a villain, and was then destroyed. But there was a problem... the heroes didn't destroy it's hearth which still contained the Virus.

Viral was thrown to the robot disposal center right after the incident...

Gear, a service droid for repairing robots who due to some issues was sent to the disposal center, managed to rebuild himself a bit with some of the robot parts in the area. Alone and forgotten, Gear discovered a small destroyed drone trying to move... And soon Viral managed to control Gear. He created the first "Villain Core", which can be found below his chest. A core of similar materials to the Hero Core, but with total opposite functions. Now Gear, under full control of Viral's powers, started building more robots with the pieces found on the disposal center.

Oh yeah... he also built a laser gun for himself, just to look more villain like...

Gear's first creation wasn't exactly great. It was just some random robot parts smacked together with a green Villain Core. Of course, it's instability allowed his creation to take control of other robot parts as if they were part of its own body. And soon he was named Ruin, the one and only with the ability to control destroyed and ruined robots with the help of his "viral beam" found on his back. A big threat for the heroes indeed.

Soon enough Gear's ability to create villains improved. The fact that some robots sent to the disposal center were almost complete helped... Of course, it was about time Gear and Ruin destroyed an incinerator and used it on a new ally. With an orange Villain Core, Volcano was born. Volcano is in fact just a robot-calculator with two incinerators, which makes him a truly calm robot, who doesn't like to waste his energy and prefers thinking things before acting... Of course, when he becomes angry he uses his full power and it's truly dangerous, just like a real Volcano.

After the other 3 were created, a hero discovered their operations. His name was Ralph Frost, a hero with more experience than Preston Stormer himself. Thanks to Volcano, they defeated Frost... Viral tried infecting him, and Gear soon added a blue Villain Core to him. Frost turned into "Iceberg", and he kept all his memories as a hero, so he knows how to counter them easily.

And thanks to Iceberg, they knew it was not enough with their forces. Gear started building a new body for Viral. Now, Viral is the strongest robot of all, and the greatest Villain Hero Factory ever had to fight against!

And now, this group of Villains, due to the fact that most of them were created as Villains and to destroy Hero Factory, are now known as the "Villain Factory"!

I like "Viral" and "Iceberg" specially their head designs. Iceberg's brutal look with giant pieces of ice made me suggest that name. Viral's head is really my favorite though now that I notice the pics don't do it justice. Strange, it is probably because in real life you focus more on the eye rather than the toa mata "brain". As for the rest, they are ok.
