which set is this piece came from?

don't know if this is the right forum so i just put it here.

so, today i opened normal LDD and came across a purple Breakout Hero Core piece:

as far as i know, normal LDD only have Pieces with color that's already produced, but to my knowledge, there are no Hero Factory set that contain this piece in purple. so, which set is this piece come from?

Since the "buy pieces" option was removed from LDD (last year, IIRC), pieces no longer have to be featured in existing (in real life) colours, thus pieces like this, never produced in the colour shown, are added as samples.

There are more pieces like that, at least in HF AFAIC: last year 3M tr. light blue 3M shells and black Surge helmets were added, even though the latter obviously don't exist while the former debut in the upcoming Summer sets.

oh, i see. thanks for the information.

Personally, I think some parts like this are ones that may have once been produced, but only as test runs and never for inclusion in actual sets. There are lots of other examples, such as skeleton minifigure parts in several transparent colors.
