Omicron Squad Leader

You're missing the point a little I think; I don't mean that he should have a set every year, and should be featured in every TV episode, I mean that in the last line/television episode it should be revealed that some unsolved mysteries/happenings were the result of Von Nebula manipulating events from behind the scenes, in order to help bring down Stormer and Hero Factory once and for all. In said story/episode, he could actually make an appearance, and have a final showdown with Stormer after a long period of planning/scheming. At this time, I believe that they should release a second, final Von Nebula set for the occasion.

How? Please elaborate.

I hope that he will be involved in the 2013 story as well, and every story from now on, manipulating events from behind the scenes, then in Hero Factory's last line he will finally confront Stormer yet again.

Well, aside from Von Nebula himself actually being involved, I'd say it was all pretty predictable.

I expect we'll see NRG Zane in the next episode (7), "Tick Tock", when he-

Ah, I guess the episode will be different to the book then. Thanks.

So, the heroes included are: Evo Rocka Surge Furno Stringer Stormer XL And the villains that appear are: Toxic Reapa (he has eggs? Lolwut?) Black Phantom Jawblade Splitface Voltix Speeda Demon Correct? Do Voltix or Stringer ever mention the Doom Box? As it is said that Voltix knows where part of it is. Perhaps in the TV show only Core Hunter, XT4 and Thornraxx are involved. Also, is there a trailer for "The Doom Box"? Do you know when it airs in South Korea?

So let me get this straight: The black hole the villains use to escape IS created by Von Nebula's staff. Black Phantom gets Hero Factory's secret file on Von Ness. Rocka is a member of Hero Recon Team so (for some reason) the other heroes don't trust him. If this is all real, this should be a pretty cool episode. Rocka and Evo. Furno's colour scheme is quite lacking in some areas, and Surge has the same problem, only 10x worse.

Interesting. To be honest, ever since I saw "The Doom Box" on Amazon (the book), I had a very strong feeling that they'd be a television episode of the same name, especially since it features the characters we haven't seen in "Breakout". I expect that in the US, "Breakout" will air around April, and "The Doom Box" in September or October.

Proof? You could've just made that up from the information we've gotten so far; we already knew about the "Doom Box" from Amazon, and surely Bulk, Stringer and Voltix should be in "The Doom Box" too, as the latter is said to have one of the components, as is Thornraxx. I think Speeda Demon should really be in part 2 as well. And shown in South Korea first, really? That seems pretty unlikely to me.

Yes.

He could do with a bit more silver, but I was talking about his torso. I'm fine with it being gunmetal; I don't really care that it's been used on Splitface before, it complements him well, unlike Nex's white one.

Bulk's fine as he is, in my opinion.

Kalhiki, Dorek and Brickthing basically summed up my thoughts, but I will say this: I would have preferred an orange chestplate to a white chestplate, although I would have preferred a BLENDED chestplate to an orange chestplate. One hero with a trans. chestplate, another with a blended one. Where can you go wrong?

I like your sig., by the way.

Lol. I still love the classic black and red colour scheme to this day, despite how countlessly it has been used. I think it complements Core Hunter himself extremely well; it brings out the highlights of the design brilliantly, and if you're a hunter, you've got to be dark (here's to hoping he'll actually be a real bounty hunter).

And you know that...how? We know nothing about the character's backstory as of yet. I'd say the pose he was in at the NYC Toy Fair was pretty good, and he's still terrible, in my opinion. Core Hunter and XT4 are like Ackar and Kiina from BIONICLE. Ackar and Core Hunter are quite generic (more so in Ackar's case), but look very good overall. Kiina and XT4 have innovative designs, but look pretty bad on the whole. This is just my analogy.

It will probably be around £70.

No.

Higher quality pics here.

Perhaps the packaging for the Ultra Sonic Raider shown there is final, as it doesn't have a preliminary stamp on it, unlike the Lasha's Bite Cycle and Epic Dragon Battle boxes. I can't make out if the Samurai Mech box has one or not, but it doesn't look final in my opinion.

It may be preliminary, but if Speeda Demon really has 124 pieces and is $34.99...that is a huge ripoff.

It's fine. I actually prefer the name "Core Drainer" too, but if he's a Core hunter I guess I will be able to decorate him with the spare Cores that come with the villains; I think the white will complement him well!

How were they correct? The set numbers mainly consisted of ones already used, and the names themselves were all wrong (for example, it claimed that Voltix would be called "Dynamo" and that there would be 3 new heroes), with the slight exception of "Core Drainer" being quite similar to "Core Hunter", which was most likely a coincidence.
