Children's day special: Pictures of Hero Factory(HF)'s run (2010-[2014?])

Yes I know it is 1 day late for Children's day special, but who said I must not do it late? Basically, what I have for children's day special is pictures depicting HF's run simply because HF took place in my childhood more than other Lego themes that I do like. Enjoy!
Note 1: Please do not think that I am trying to insult Hero Factory, I actually like it, but this is simply for humour and fun purposes only
Note 2: Those characters which I've only identified with colours means I can't and am too lazy to think up of a name for. 

2010

Warstone: What in the world are you, you shortie guy with a H on your chest?!
Breez: I'm Breez, and I will capture you because Hero Factory will replace Bionicle!
Warstone: WHAT?!

Breez: *Shoots boomerangs at Warstone*

Warstone: *Gets shot*

Breez: Yes!

2011(first wave)

White hero: Hold it right there you fire villain!

Fire villain: You think you can beat me? Not a chance!

White hero: *Shoots the fire villain*

Fire villain: *Gets shot down*

White hero: Victory is mine! Oh yeah!

2011(Second wave)

Silver male hero: Oh my goodness why am I upgraded with 3.0 stuff when I ain't even going anyway?(Hints to me only getting one set from this particular wave, which is Bulk 3.0)

2012

Red hero: You're not going anywhere just because it is breakout!

Blue and green villain: *Shoots the hero down* Mwahahahahahahaha!

Blue and green villain: *Flees from the prison*

*A few minutes later...*

Blue and green villain: Oh c'mon, won't you Hero Factory heroes ever rest?

Red hero: You're caught and cuffed, again!

Blue and green villain:  ||-_- *face palms*

2013

Silver female hero: Squash the brain parasites' red spikes!

(This is all I have to describe for 2013 really :P )

2014

White hero: Ok, WHY ON EARTH AM I SO FREAKING TINY???!!!!

White hero: OH MY BRICK...

Invasion from below(IFB) Villain: *Aims his weapon at white hero*

White hero: Uh oh...

IFB Villain: *Shoots fire at the white hero*

White hero: *Runs away while screaming*

*A few minutes later...*

White hero: Now this is my kind of mech! An upsized version of myself!

White hero: *Aims at IFB villain*

IFB villain: *Aims at White hero's mech*

White hero: *Controls his mech to pull trigger first and shoots IFB villain down*

White hero: Oh yes!

2015

Blue hero: *Does his prison guard duty*

Warstone: *Appears, kicks blue hero down and presses him down with his leg*

Warstone: Ha! Now it's our turn to replace you now! We, bionicles, RULE!

Shadotaka: Uh, dude, you do realise you are outdated in your armouring and limbs do you?

Warstone: Huh? *Accidentally releases his grip off blue hero*

Blue hero: *Secretly crawls away while they are chatting*

Shadatako: Wait, don't tell me you haven't seen the pictures yet but you know Bionicle's coming back?!

Warstone: Uh so why are you like a Hero factory guy with a bionicle mask or something like that?

Shadatako: I was made as a Bionicle MOC meant for following the style of bionicle 2015 so that's why I'm even like this in the first place and I look different for the old bionicle guys do you understand?

Warstone: Uhhh... not exactly because I do not understand why are we using that stupid successor of ours' system.

Shadatako: It's not just used by HF anymore, it's now used by chima ultrabuilds, superhero ultrabuilds... and simply not really just Hero factory specific anymore. In fact, it is called CCBS which stands for Character Creature Building System. Oh, by the way, I feel like my limbs won't crack anytime soon using this system!

Warstone: Uh... okay?

Warstone: *Turns his head around to see where is blue hero but he is gone. In shock, he almost falls down but Shadotaka catches him in time* WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENED TO HIM I THOUGHT I HAD HIM UNDER MY FOOT WHILE TALKING TO YOU JUST NOW!

Shadotaka: You might have accidentally released your grip on him while chatting with me just now.

Warstone: WHAT?!

That's it for now and I hope you enjoyed these comics!

My opinion on Bionicle's return in 2015

Wow, this is so weird! The picture of bionicle with Hero Factory(HF) pieces(they aren't exclusive to HF, but they were introduced in HF so that's why a LOT of people call the big action figure styled building pieces HF pieces :P), are you telling me you are copying what I did to Mizu(Oh well Mizu wasn't totally made with HF parts but quite a lot of pieces on him are)? :P Ok that was just a joke now to get to the serious part.
I am willing to try it, since when I first knew of Lego and Bionicle I was very young so I couldn't really grasp the storyline since Bionicle had a 8 year history when I knew of such thing called Lego Bionicle. :P I do want to see how would the new Bionicle turn out to be, and also GET THE MASKS!!!!!!! :P :P :P Also, I think it would be better to use the HF pieces since they are better in terms of quality(the 2008 and after pieces were really poor in quality, no offence meant to any Bionicle fans that read this). Oh well, this is my opinion on this! That's it for now!
(Note: This is quite more or less official, since a moderator on the Lego Message Boards actually announced that Bionicle WILL return)

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Surge XL

Here is one of my Hero Factory(HF) MOCs that has been disassembled long ago, but now I finally decided to post it on my blog, Surge XL! He was just a MOC that I made for a contest on the Lego gallery last year where I had to choose one of the official heroes to upgrade to XL and I chose to upgrade Surge so here are the pictures of him. Too bad I didn't win the contest, though :(

Yeah, I kinda stole the electric gun for Surge XL from Marcus Surge(my other HF MOC) who was featured in this post. He also has a jet pack on his back which also shoots out electricity to the side for the sake of intimidating his enemies. Anyway, that's it for now and I hope you liked this MOC!

Lego Hero Factory Self MOC: Shaun Burst(Blizzard edition)

Here's my Hero Factory Self MOC, Shaun Burst in Blizzard Edition! Here are 3 pictures of him.

Front view(Skis up)

Front View(skis down)

Back view

So basically, since my self MOC isn't going to follow that ridiculous IFB(Invasion From Below) series(I say that series is ridiculous because of the very dumb movie which they tried using to 'advertise' their products, which practically failed...), I decided to make him go on another mission since I can't possibly leave him in brain attack form forever. :P So basically at that time frame where Burst goes for his blizzard mission is at the same time IFB happened and in his blizzard edition, well, obviously, he would have some heat-related weapons to melt ice based enemies. Also, there are flame on his upper leg armour to warm him in the ice.
The lower leg armour as of the time I'm writing this post has been changed to gold, and the lower arm amour has been changed to dark pearl grey/gunmetal grey, but the pictures were taken before I actually changed the armour positions, and I'm now too lazy to take new pics just for minor changes. Anyway, the thing is, he has golden 'boots' that help him climb steep snow slopes better, and he has the retractable skis which help him ski down snow slopes. His fire and lightning staff has been upgraded to a fire and lightning spear. Due to the air conditions in the snow, Shaun Burst gets a breathing apparatus so that he can breathe properly. His jet pack, which has been with him since breakout, still remains in his blizzard edition(although I don't really know if the jet pack can still work in the snow but I left it there anyway) and so does his lightning sniper riffle.  In the story, his armour would be thicker in order to withstand the conditions in the snow, but in real life, it's obviously the plain old armour pieces used throughout all series except 1.0. Also, I just left his brain attack body armour thing alone because I needed some bits of red on him to make it seem obvious that red was one of the colours in his colour scheme. If you didn't notice,(I think you should have, though) Shaun Burst got back his head from the breakout series. :P That's it for now and I hope you liked this MOC!

Lego Hero Factory Breakout MOC: Stormer(Based on the 1.0 version of him)

Here's my Lego Hero Factory(HF) Breakout MOC, Stormer! (HF Breakout is like a theme from 2 years ago but whatever) Here are 4 pictures of him.

Front view

Left side view

Back view

Right side view

Basically, like what JANGBRiCKS did for his Stringer and Bulk breakout version MOCs, my Stormer MOC is based on his 1.0 version and basically like he just got an upgrade from 1.0 directly to breakout form. This time, my MOC was made in the Lego Digital Designer program because I didn't have enough parts to make this in real life, but making this digitally does give some limitations to how you can attach Lego parts(like how I would usually attach the 3 long armour pieces on the shoulders in real life without the 3 long beam with ball joint in the middle piece, I have to put that in LDD in order to put the body armour properly). Because of that, it also causes a big gap when the arms are moved away from the sides, and thus, looks very ugly from the side view. But usually, you won't look at it from the side, will you? Also, the knee design was based on JANGBRiCKS's Stringer v.4 MOC and I did that because I wanted to give him the blue knees like he had originally in the 1.0 form. I tried the best as I could to replicate his 1.0 weapon onto this version of him, but this is what I could come up with. I included the hook, the ice shooting part and the saw, but the H thingy on his weapon was excluded because I don't know how I should put it so that it would look like his 1.0 weapon. The spikes on the 3 long armour pieces on his shoulders were meant to represent the spikes near the shoulders on his original torso armour.  Anyway, that's it for now and I hope you liked this MOC!

Some of my Lego MOCs that I've done for the past few months-part 1 (Chima and Hero Factory)

Here are some of my Lego MOCs that I've done for the past few months(I could have just posted them individually, but then I have no idea what background I should give them, but FYI I am still interested in Lego but just because I didn't post about Lego for a long time does not mean I don't like Lego anymore).

My Hero Factory MOCs! :P And yes I have a bit of a messy table... :P

My Chima minifigs and one big vehicle for my scorpion minifig! :P (Yes I found that spider minifig LOL)(The lion minifigure is now an 'upgraded' version of Lagenvas)

That's it for now!

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Micheal Voltage

Here's my Lego Hero Factory MOC, Micheal Voltage which I built in Lego Digital Designer! Here's a picture of him.

Here's his profile.

Name: Micheal Voltage

Form: Custom

Weapons: Lightning blade, gun with hook

Colours: Yellow, blue and black

Personality: Voltage is a laid-back hero and so he gained a bit of dislike from Johnathan Arrowgun, his team leader. Despite that, he is still a loyal team member, and he can easily transition from his lazy laid back personality to serious villain fighting which is a good thing. He is also honest.

Status: Alive, active

Team: Zeta team

Background: Micheal Voltage was a hero made during the 3.0 era and also thus 'born with the upgrade'.  But also, because of that, he did not know anything about the previous leader of Zeta team, since the 1st leader died before the 3.0 era. However, the funny thing is, he did not have any animal form even though he was born in the 3.0 era.

Voltage has always been a laid back hero and because of that, he skipped a lot of Zeta team's training sessions, which makes Johnathan slightly dislike him. However, his pleasing point is the fact that he can transition from being laid back to serious while fighting villains. Not much is known of the missions he did. Despite skipping so many team training sessions, he managed to get fully trained, so rumours started coming up on him going to train with someone else rather than participating in team training sessions and Voltage admitted bravely that it was true.

Prior to breakout, he had to go and capture Xplode, thus, he was upgraded with explosives-proof armour. When he arrive, he immediately managed to capture Xplode, since he caught Xplode by surprise. He returned to Makuhero City in the Heropod, but when he had arrived, the fail safe shield was coming up while Daniella was there. Voltage then decided to wait there while making sure Xplode does not escape. Because of his great sensors, he sensed that Arrowgun, his team leader, had arrived after a few minutes, so he contacted him and Arrowgun realised that Hero Factory was invaded by Black Phantom, so Arrowgun told Voltage to stay put. After Arrowgun was informed of the defeat of Black Phantom, he informed Voltage about it and told him it was safe to take Xplode out and into the Hero Factory building to put in back into the prison.

During the brain attack crisis, Voltage participated as well and because of Arrowgun noticing the weak spots of the brain creatures earlier than Bulk, they managed to get the brain creatures off the animal's heads earlier than Alpha team and put the brain creatures back to prison. Voltage later had a custom form because of he

succeeded in a mission that would have nearly 1% chance of succeeding and was also invited by the Hero Recon Team to join it. Voltage accepted and began doing double duty like his team leader.

Upon the arrival of Invasion from Below, Arrowgun told his whole team to not go for it in order to train for other missions, and also for security reasons, especially since Breakout Hero Factory has been caring on the Hero Factory building security much more than they used to.

That's it for now and I hope you like this MOC!

Lego Hero Factory/Recon Team MOC: Rick Stealth Shadow

Here's my Lego Hero Factory/Recon Team MOC, Rick Stealth shadow! Here are 6 pictures of him.

Here's his profile.

Name: Rick Stealth Shadow
Form: Custom
Weapon: Shadow flames blaster
Colours: Black, red and a bit of silver
Personality: Rick Stealth Shadow is a hero easy to please and straightforward. He is also a patient hero and a very intelligent one. He also has high emotional intelligence
Status: Alive, active
Team: Trainer for Zeta team, sometimes participates in the team missions

Background: Rick Stealth Shadow was one of the earliest heroes built in the Hero Factory.

He was none other than an ordinary hero back then, but he climbed up the ladder and became a top hero, and his role was changed to a hero team trainer. He was later assigned to train members of the Zeta team. He is also one of the earliest members of the Hero Recon Team.

Rick Stealth Shadow has seen many events that happened in Zeta team from the starting to the death of the 1st leader to the coming of the 2nd leader and all the way till Invasion from Below.  However, during that long period of time and during the 2.0 period, he had one hero he was particularly please about, and that is Jonathan Arrowgun, the current leader of Zeta team. Though Rick Stealth Shadow is easy to please, he is hard to please to the point where he shows someone his best moves, and Arrowgun was able to, so Arrowgun has been a real legend in Zeta team. There are also other events, like how the 1st team leader had neglected Arrowgun and Firesniper, so Stealth Shadow tried to help them, he helped Firesniper by telling Zib the problem and asked him to allow Firesniper to go solo and in the end, Zib had to because the negotiating with the 1st team leader did not work. It was unknown what did Stealth Shadow do to help Arrowgun be able to do some hero duty.

Later, he was upgraded to 3.0 with the animal power of a black wolf and sent to Quatros as a solo mission to deal with the Witch Doctor problem. Prior to breakout, like all of the heroes, he was upgraded to suit the environment of the villain he is chasing, Fire Lord and his minions, and he was single. However, he was still able to defeat them in the end and cuff them all. When he went back to Hero Factory with the 4 criminals, the Black Phantom event has already passed and he put the villains back behind bars.

When Brain attack came around, the full squad had to go again, so that also included Stealth Shadow himself. Stealth Shadow actually found out about the brain creatures' weak spots earlier than Jonathan Arrowgun, but he didn't inform the team about the weak spots, giving the glory to Arrowgun.

During Invasion from below, because Arrowgun wanted all of the team members not to go for it to train for other missions, Rick Stealth Shadow had to stay as well to train the members of the team.

That's it for now and I hoped you like this MOC!
