Well, I got my Breakout sets (all, minus Furno, Breez, and Thornraxx). Reapa is all sorts of win. Trans lime! Woot! And Evo is much better than anticipated. Absolutely love his Tank Arm. Splitface is cool. Actually kinda creepy. Liking him quite a bit. Haven't opened the others. I'll get to them tomorrow. Kalhiki

Augh! Splitface is so creepy! Will the comic continue? Kalhiki

That shield is gorgeous. However I feel with that color red, it would work better for a villain. I don't know. I need to see it in person. Thanks for the picture! Kalhiki

Want to see Breez's shield. Rocka's looks awesome, and I want to see it in that trans red color. I'll probably switch torsos with Breez and... Someone else. Unless the original doesn't bother me all that much. Also will place the thigh armor on top of the legs. Just seems like it'd look better. Kalhiki

They could've at least kept his accent. I'm fine with him talking and pretty much everything else he did in the clip, but a little consistency with his character between stories would be nice. Kalhiki

I'd much rather prefer Stringer with orange as his secondary color. Orange and Black is such a cool color scheme, and to me, nothing says Stringer like those colors. However, the blue does give me a Soundwave vibe which is pretty cool. I guess it'll grow on me. Kalhiki

Where's zen Evo? I liked his ninja ways. Not only did his personality change, but so did his voice. He doesn't have that accent anymore. Maybe whoever tore his arm off also screwed up his voice (alright, I know this is non-canon. But I'm still going by Evo's arm being torn off). Speaking of his arm; I really want to paint the gun piece and give it the yellow highlights. It looks sweet in the animation. Kalhiki

So, Voltix is the guy from the Breakout Movie video. Automatically want. Him and Stormer XL. I'm a big Stormer fan, so I really want him. The Heroes will hopefully get better once the final pics are released. The villains are already awesome. Kalhiki

I got goosebumps from excitement from watching that video. That's how awesome I thought it was. New villains are cool and also nice to see the return of older villains. Really hoping the vortex is related to Nebula. Also cool to see a Breakout Stormer. Really want him as a set now. Along with that purple villain. And neat to see that Arachnix will be wreaking some major havoc. Kalhiki

So, it seems the axle holes on the Glatorian head are accessible on BP. Wonder what that could lead to MoCing-wise. Very excited for Black Phantom. Loving the whole hunched over look, but I'm not sure about the back spikes. Looks like they're pretty poseable, so I'm sure I won't have trouble finding a position where they look cool. Hm. Also not sure if I like that red axle sticking out of his head... Kalhiki

I really wasn't expecting to like the new shield, but after seeing it has the Gorast wing effect, I want it so much. Can't wait to get my hands on these figures! Kalhiki

Saw the review. Very nice looking figure. I especially like the combiner, and I'll probably build it. Sadly, despite its awesomeness, it probably will never appear in the story. Also cool to see that the chest plate can fit well on the new torso armor. This gives me high hopes for HRT. Kalhiki

Well, if that's true, it's interesting to see who's voicing who. Voice of Meltdown possibly being back is win. Kalhiki

It seems like we see the new wave, get the sets, and get pictures for the next wave. We're never satisfied. But still, I'd hope for a Breakout continuation. And I'd also want a Stormer just because I'd like to see him in the new Hero style. Kalhiki

Evo is so full of win. Tank arm? Yes. And the boots explain why his lower legs and feet are gunmetal. Others are still pretty good. Wonder what it means the the Breakout game is sold separately. Kalhiki

Neato. And, what exactly are Reapa's "crushing claws"? Plasma Guns... Lame. I'll still use them as EMP Launchers to stun the villains. Plasma is overused, anyway. Kalhiki

Steampunk because I'm a sucker for such things. Plus, think of all the pieces that we could get. Underwater... Meh. No. Never was a fan of underwater themes. But it'd be cool to see an octopus villain. Some kind of Bug-related theme would be sweet. Giant spiders would be epic. I'd also like to see a storyline that takes place in a city. Not necessarily Makuhero City, but a city in general. Personally, I like the direction the line is going in currently with the "Each Hero on a separate mission" deal. So, I'm indifferent when it comes to specific region-based themes or the like. Kalhiki Giant Spiders. Want.

Raw Jaw is definitely my fav SP villain. I just love his gorilla look. Kalhiki

Let's see so there's the '09 Launcher, Short Launcher, and the top half of the gun that the Heroes have. (I'll call that Big Gun) That means the pairs are: '09 Launcher & '09 Launcher '09 Launcher & Short Launcher '09 Launcher & Big Gun Short Launcher & Big Gun Short Launcher & Short Launcher Judging by the pictures, it seems as though two Big Gun pieces can't form a launcer on their own. Also, it seems that the pairs with the Big Gun would not be able to fire a Spike Ball mainly due to how that gun half is designed. Kalhiki

I noticed something on Evo in that picture: The cladding on his upper right arm can't be positioned like that. But still. Evo looks great. I'm not really sad to see the purple go because the gunmetal just works so well. Kalhiki

I don't wash my sets since they're safe from dust in storage. But the sets that are out, I usually just rub the dust off. But since you're talking about an entire collection, definitely wash them with water. I haven't tried it, but I'm wondering how well one of those compressed air canisters used to clean computers would work (if you know what I'm talking about). Then again, if the dust has been on the sets a while, I'm not sure the air power would be strong enough to get it all off. Kalhiki

They don't look all that great, but I'll make my decisions once I see more pics. Reapa's got potential. I was losing faith once we saw the newer CGI pics. Jawblade... Eh. I still want to build a pair of legs for him just because. The round shoulder armor looks kinda small. It looked like it'd be bigger judging by other pics, but that could just be the angle. And I was hoping Jawblades swords would trans red instead of solid. Oh well. EDIT: Looking at Jawblade, I would have much rather have preferred the fin to be on his back rather than on his helmet. Having an assembly similar to Bulk's weapon would be fine. Kalhiki

I was going to say that the gunmetal color would make sense if it was a replacement arm. But since they're robots, Evo could've just gotten one in yellow. Then I got to thinking. If you look at Furno 1.0 being assembled in one of the animations, he's grey and only gets his color when his Core gets started. Perhaps the Quaza gives the Hero their color (if you want to take everything in that animation as canon). Which would mean if Evo were to get a new arm, it would be grey since it wasn't part of his body during his initial Core charge. If that makes sense. Kalhiki

That would be sweet. Okay, that's the official explanation for me. You guys can believe what you want. Kalhiki

Still feel the same for them except for Reapa. Hope it's just poor posing. Packaging is interesting. Can't wait to get my hands on the sets to see what it's like. Kalhiki
