KazeMonsuta Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) LEGOJANG released his review of Stormer XL. :D , and .I wonder why he didn't put them in one video. As he is a partner there is no 15 minute limit for him. Other than many others here, I prefer the video review. I like the dynamic of this format, but a well-written has proves to be just as good.

Gatanui Posted July 13, 2012 I know you've all been waiting for it, and the wait is almost over. Stay tuned for the last of my series of reviews, Core Hunter, coming very soon! -Gata Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Yup, want and want. Who's going to make a SD review? PS: I want the scout drones in white and red to use as the training drones from the 2.0 episode. Edited July 13, 2012 by DraikNova Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kalhiki Posted July 14, 2012 Just got Voltix at TRU. I wouldn've gotten Stringer with him, but they only had the medium sized figures. Anyway, he's great. I don't mind the short arms as much, and the colors are far more cohesive in person. Also, the new lightning pieces are gorgeous. Kalhiki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted July 14, 2012 Yup, they seemed awesome from the start, those lightning pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zachattacx Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) I just ordered Core Hunter from Amazon , I would have gotten CH at TRU, but they didn't have him, it's kinda ironic the only one I want is not there, but all of the others are there , either way he should be arriving Thursday or Friday, so I'm happy Edited July 15, 2012 by Zachattacx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoWalrus Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) Sorry to disturb the topic of discussion, guys, but I think I've just found Hero Factory winter '13 set names. Where? On some random German shop site, of course! Well, here they are: 4224 Breez - 9.99 euros 4225 Gusher - 9.99 euros 4226 Evo - 12.99 euros 4227 Plasma Spitta - 9.99 euros 4228 Venomfang - 9.99 euros 4229 Stormer - 12.99 euros 4230 Von Nebula - 19.99 euros 4231 Surge - 12.99 euros 4232 Blizzaxx - 12.99 euros 4241 Nex - 9.99 euros Here's a link to the shop site page:Click! I can't gather much from them myself, apart from 4230, of course, which I was kind of expecting after the conclusion to "Breakout". Still, I welcome a return of Nebby!

Kalhiki Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) Haven't they re-used set numbers before? Not sure... Anyway, I'm skeptical. The lack of Furno is surprising. I just can't seem to see a wave without him (minus Breakout Wave 2 since he was in the story arc in the beginning). Unless this is like Breakout again with a year long story arc. Also, isn't Spitta a character from Ninjago? But until more is revealed, I can't say much. Kalhiki Edited July 15, 2012 by Kalhiki Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gatanui Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) Reusing set numbers makes no sense as there are still plenty left. Also, VenomFang is apparently a MGBLKS set. I doubt they would use that. -Gata Edited July 15, 2012 by Gatanui Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vexorian Posted July 15, 2012 Set numbers were reused in the past, but when the old sets that used the number were very obscure or not used badly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DraikNova Posted July 15, 2012 Well, even though those numbers went nowhere, the names might be true, and I for one think they sound interesting. "Plasma Spitta" sounds like a set similar to Toxic Reapa, but possibly with purple. Just saying, the names might be true and for one I would be glad if they were.

Shakar Posted July 15, 2012 They might have some truth on them, yeah. Like "Core Drainer" and "Stormer Lgd". Well, Von Nebula and 13 Euro Surge I would welcome with open arms- 13 Euro sets bring a wider number of pieces and thus more complicated designs compared to 9 Euro figures, and since Surge was a 9 Euro sets this year.. Actually, I'd like if the places were switched: Surge-Evo-Nex-Stringer as 13 Euro sets (or 3 medium size figures and a XL), while Furno-Breez-Rocka-Bulk-Stormer as 9 Euro sets. As for the XL figure, it could be anyone (except Rocka and Stormer of course)- hey, even a Furno XL wouldn't be so bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DraikNova Posted July 15, 2012 Let's just hope the prices aren't right: Von Nebula, a 20$ set? Honestly, I want him to be bigger than even Witch Doctor, at 50$ at least. Kinda like the HF equivalent of a Kardas-sized set. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kinda like the HF equivalent of a Kardas-sized set. I hope the prices are right, because if Nebula is 50$ or more my wallet is more or less going to kill itself, but I really hope Nebula could be bigger than is previous form but still have a okay amount of pieces, maybe if he's 30$ it wouldn't hurt my wallet so much.

Shakar Posted July 15, 2012 We're not even sure if they're willing to cross the 29,99/34,99 Dollars/Euro line (Witch Doctor/Speeda Demon's prices, depending where you live)- that is, they farthest they went since 2011. The Dropship in 2010 was the most expensive HF set yet, but that obviously didn't sell well since they haven't tried something like it in the followong lines. I'd fine if Von Nebula (assuming he comes back- not that I'm against it) were a 20 Euro set. Stormer XL, BP, Rocka XL and Fire Lord look plenty imposing and towering even next to 13 Euro figures. I love WItch Doctor and Kardas, but they're ridiculously huge for HF standards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be fine with a 20$ or 30$ Von Nebula, if they don't use the Fire Lord design, Von Nebula should have a better design than that, maybe down the line of Stormer XL, but fix stuff on Nebula that they didn't do on Stormer.Maybe how Stormer in my opinion looks like Optimus Prime, but make Nebula sorta look like Megatron(Movieverse).

Shakar Posted July 15, 2012 Well, Stormer XL's design is much more flexible than the FL IMO, since it relies 99,9% on the new building system. Shoulder width can be adjusted with some different bulding techniques, and legs can pretty much look however you like and still be sturdy thanks to the new friction joints. FL body, also, is too lanky for Von Nebula- he's a more bulky figure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zachattacx Posted July 15, 2012 (edited) I just thought of something crazy, what if Von Nebula's body was dissolved in the black hole and he came back as a spirit(Makuta,no)and it could transform or take figure of anything he wanted, but he chose all the other villains and the spirit made a combination of all the previous major villains(WD,FL,BP)and became a super ultra version of all the major villains of the past including himself,crazy or what.
