Lego Hero Factory MOC: Jethro Weaponary

Here's my Lego Hero Factory MOC, Jethro Weaponary! Here's a picture of him.



Here's his profile.
Name: Jethro Weaponary
Form: Breakout
Weapon: A huge projectile riffle
Colours: Yellow, orange and gunmetal grey/dark pearl grey
Personality: Jethro is a bit of a hot head and sometimes during missions, he rushes into things and doesn't think straight, landing himself into trouble, though when he makes weapons with patience this side of him hardly even seems like that this is him
Status: Alive, active
Team: N/A
Background: Jethro Weaponary was one of the most earliest hero created in the Hero Factory assembly tower and originally had no last name, until Hero Factory discovered he loved to make weapons that they gave him the last name of "weaponary".
When he was created, he always had that inventive personality especially on anything related to weapons, so Hero Factory decided to put him as the weapons specialist. Like some of the other inventive heroes, he found the 1.0 system a flaw, like how the 1.0 heroes couldn't have big weapons. With the armour specialist, Jarek Amour and Zack Quickfire's suggestion, they worked together with Zib, a few other engineers and Mr Makuro and developed the 2.0 system, giving it maximum armour slots, wide variety of weapons and better flexibility. As per the storyline, the system was first tested on Nex and Evo.
Later, Jethro started developing tons of custom weapons, ranging from huge swords to Jonas Stringer's guitar and to Ray Burner's The Four Fire Makers(TFFM). His weakness being on amour, he usually gets a bit outdated with it, but he could care less about that since he hardly gets shot because of how quick he can fire his gun. His most recent weapon made is Zefirino Knightshot's swordgun which is a sword and a plasma gun integrated together and Zander Ninjahero's Ninja pack(it's just a name for a set of ninja weapons for Zander), which they both worked together on it. Following up with the mechas made by Jarek, no mecha can go without weapons so he created some mecha-specific weapons for the mechas made by Jarek which was later tested by Chris Arro to see if the mecha works.
That's it for now and I hoped you like this MOC!

Lego Hero Factory Invasion from Below set review: Rocka Stealth Machine

Here's a Lego Hero Factory Invasion from Below set review of Rocka Stealth Machine! I bought this at The Brick Shop yesterday. Here are 9 pictures of it.

Jumper in container... thingy I guess :P

Minifigure+jumper: They're okay... I guess. They aren't the best Lego stuff... but still okay...I would LOVE to use Rocka's minifigure parts for the minifig version of my Self MOC but apparently there aren't any purple so I might have to use my purple modelling clay... But whatever they are good. However, one thing I dislike is how come the jumper has a tan 1 1/2 pin used to connect the black and orange parts together? It's so off colour scheme! But thanks to the function on the jumpers I will give a 0.5 point more. Here's the function.

(9.5/10)
Mecha: I am a little utterly disappointed with its physical appearance, especially when on the package it appears to be very bulked up and looks very armoured but when you actually build it it doesn't seem quite like I expected. I'm very disappointed. (5/10)
Pieces: YAY PIECES I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!! Enough said, let's go to the new pieces I get in this set and pieces that are rare that I get more of in this set.
New(to me):
1. Black 5 long armour piece(Yes at last I got these and in this set came 4!)
2. The jumper container piece in transparent bright green
3. lightsaber piece in bright green
4. Lime green cockpit piece that has the 2 minifig sized hooks for Exo-force claw thingy
5. transparent black/brown cockpit
6. Rocka minifig helmet
7. Rocka minifig arms
8. Rocka minifig legs
9. Lime green head
10. Technic hinge w/ pin size connector at the end
More:
1. Black version of the armour add-on piece that is on the mecha's 'shoulder'
2. Gunmetal grey/dark pearl grey feet
3. Gold 3 long armour piece
4. Gunmetal grey/dark pearl grey 4 long armour piece
5. Transparent green bottom half breakout shooters
(10/10)
Total: 24.5/30
That's it for now and I hope this review helped you!
