Nice that these are out. But most likely just in America. Can't wait for Lego Jang to review them.

Rather than asking for parts that have probably been listed. I want some new features added to Ldd. A search system that is based on the one from Lego Universe. Most of us dont' know a bricks exact name. But we know what shape it is and what connections it has. Having the search function Lego Universe had would make building easier. The search in Ldd is broken .When I search tree. It gives me parts that have nothing to do with tree. Like windscreen. Add a second button to clone called Mirrored clone. It will clone a brick but it will appear as a mirror image of the brick you cloned. It can help for those balljoint bricks that you got alligned perfectly on one side and have to do the same on the other side. A flag facing left will be cloned to face right. An option to make a brick no-collide with another brick. Used to attach bricks that you know attach together in real life but refuse to attach together in Ldd. The bricks would connect together but parts that would collide would go through each other.

I like this idea but I would change the minifigures to the 4 robot sidekicks and 4 larvae. The alien queen I would change to have six legs and no tail. She would have a large but slightly hollow abdomen to hold 4 of the larvae pods. Pushing a switch on the abdomen would drop one of the pods to the ground and release the larvae. The next pod would roll into place since the inside would be build with a slope so the eggs could roll down. The top would open up so you could load the eggs in. She would have 4 arms that would each be able to swing. The upper arms would swing up and down and the lower arms would swing left and right. She would have a light up brick in her eyes to make them glow red.

You forgot the one opening at the Southgate mall in Edmonton.

Totally Didn't expect that kind of back build. Also didn't expect back armor. As for the combiner I have to say this http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_SrV3elZ-fGo/SP5UbO6vxrI/AAAAAAAADx8/3We6Wnmj41A/s400/Fly_my_Pretties_Oz_Medium.JPG

I doubt it. Stormer's pics clearly show the his shield stick out. Surge's shield looks right up against his back. I guess we'll have to wait for a review of Surge to be certain

What Aanchir meant was this piece http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=x1192px2. Which personally I think they should bring back in the new ball joint style. It would be very useful in the new hero factory building style.

I dunno Surge's set uses 66 pieces. I've done a moc up of surge's set. If the first pic is correct then Surge's set is missing 3 pieces. The lower way I've tried uses the exact amount of pieces. Here is the lxf file http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/herofactory/brain_attack_surge_builds.lxf

Surge's Build in the pic and the bag are different. His backpack appears to attach to the normal torso pegs in the main pic. But on the bag pic they appear to attack one peg lower. Which one is correct? This pic from Bzpower's coverage of Toyfair doesn't give any good answers http://www.bzpower.c.../TF13_HF_20.jpg

Odd Evo and Aquagon don't seem to be in.

When did you buy Furno 2.0 Maybe you got a rare molding problem.

How many times did you take them apart and put them back together. And no so far my joints are all still sturdy.

This is a moc I've waited to post. After a bricklink order arrived today. I can say the moc is done. With that I give you my Dark Hunter Moc Grenak and his Energy Hound Limeup http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/001.jpg The goal with this moc was to use mainly green parts. The colors used are Mata Green Lime Green Metru Green Trans Light Green Trans Dark Green Trans Apple Green Black (If the part existed in Mata Green, Lime Green, Or Metru Green it was used instead of Black) Dark Bley (Just the metru head and the 3 long axles with the stud on the end.) This is Grenak's Backstory Grenak is a member of the Order of Mata Nui. Like other members he was experimented on to become stronger. He became physically faster and stronger but a side effect occured. He became unable to breathe normal air and could only breathe poison. So the Order fashioned a backpack that would syphon the toxins in the air and convert it into poison so Grenak could survive. Another side effect was Grenak grew a bunch of spikes. Grenak wears the Kanohi Zatth allowing him to summon rahi His weapon is a large Tri axe that allows him to control rahi. Though larger rahi require him to concentrate. He met Limup using his mask. Helryx sent Grenak and Limup to join the Dark Hunters as a secondary spy. Just incase Ancient should fail. He is currently on Spherus Magna with the other Dark Hunters ready to tell the order The Shadowed One's plans once he discovers them. I'll start with pics of Limup the energy hound Side (Limup is built similar to the Energy Hound Spinax but with some changes) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/002.jpg Front (The head was the hardest to design using mainly green parts. I once used Ehlek's head Then Corroder's head But the Spikit head works best. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/003.jpg Back http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/004.jpg Now pics of Grenak Front (He uses a custom torso built around a mata body.) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/006.jpg Side (His joints aren't the strongest and the lime green ball joints tend to come loose. He is more a display piece than an play figure) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/007.jpg Back (Those aren't wings. There used to siphon toxins from the air and turn it into poison which goes into the tanks) http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/011.jpg Back weapon stored http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/012.jpg Bonus pic Grenak and Limeup tracking something http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/takanuinuva/GrenakAndLimup/010.jpg Gallery when public http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=526911 Comments and Critisim appriciated.

After seeing how the torso was built. I can say its really well done. But its just not something I would build myself.

I just don't lile how complex it is. Is cool that you made a custom torso. But with Hero factory. Its just doesn't look right.

Nice mix of his 2.0 and Breakout versions. Can't say I like the torso but I appriciate the custom build. Wonder how he'd look with his Brain attack helmet and visor.

Well I looked at Shredders helmet and it appears that it will cover up most of the grey paint. But I'm not 100% sure

I have two parts suggestions Head http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=3626bpb792 And I'd reccomend the Wolverine claws for this shredder http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=10187

Tried embedding pics in the post. They end up as x errors. Only way to view the pics is to go to the gallery. Don't know why when I post links to the individual pics. They become broken links.

Why is there a huna in the back of the truck mode?

This is something I have been working on for about a year. The first design was utter trash. Over the months I've made more and more improvements and now I've nearly perfected the design. Right now I only have an Ldd version of the design. But once some last bricklink orders arrive I will have the proper pieces to finish a real life version. The real life version will have different colors due to some of the pieces in the Ldd version are in colors that don't exist. I give you my Skeleton Dragon Gallery (Public. Contains Lxf file for the creation) http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=503091 Any suggestions on how to improve the design are welcome. Comments and critisim appriciated. Edit something is wrong with brickshelf. I can't post links to the pics here. They just bug out. So to view the dragon just go to the gallery.

Here I'll give an Ldd of how I will build them. Nex is missing his helm, Stringer is missing his helm and the speaker piece for his guitar. Nex's villian needs Phantoka Pohatu's mask. Stringer's villian need Chirox's mask and Mutran's wings. The chest fur is going to be the new one from Ultrabuild Gorzan. The trans blue armor on both stringer and his villain is supposed to be trans dark blue. http://www.brickshel...nd_stringer.lxf Once I get the pieces I need I will post real life pics of them.

I'm working on mocs of Brain attack Nex and Stringer. Nex is a large set and Stringer is a small set. Nex's design is loosely based around Gordon Freeman of Half Life 2. And Stringer is based around his breakout version. They each get a villian. Nex's villian is loosely based around a head crab zombie from Half Life 2 and Stringers villian is a bat like creature that used sonic screams. Nex's Villian is a large set and Stringers villian is a small set. All these mocs are design to be like how lego would have made them. I plan on customizing Breakout Nex's helm and Stringer helm to fit a Brain Attack Visor. The Visors won't be modified. On a different note I'll be getting these Brain Attack wave 2 sets Stormer Frost Beast Surge Aquagon

Its a problem for the entire Bzp site. The news stories are broken and can't be viewed. Which is a shame cause I also want to see there Toyfair pics again. (Mostly there pic of the back of brain attack surge). I hope they fix it soon.

I've come up with a way Chi Gorzan's Torso could be built. I've made a moc up in Ldd and only used 59 pieces since that is how many there are in the set. The actual model only uses 57 pieces since the head and chest aren't in ldd. The fur parts have been substituted with there closest match.
