Lego Hero Factory MOC: Helios 3.0

The latest rockin' hero to get the 3.0 treatment is Helios 3.0.
Role: Medic/frontline soldier
Weapons: Claws/plasma blasters
Animal power: Lion
Special ability: Able to generate more energy from the energy crystals around his body.
Catchphrase: "Bask in my glow, and you'll learn YOUR lesson!"

Helios was originally a 2.0 hero from Maximus Team (I will post pictures of the Maximus Team in a later post.)
This is what he looked like as a 2.0 hero.


Helios is hot tempered, and hot temperature!

Most people who see Helios often ask about the Hero Cores located around his body. They aren't Hero Cores, but, in fact, extra power sources made of 1% Quaza. The yellow crystals around his body serve the same purpose. If another Hero is low on energy in battle, Helios will hook up a special device that saps energy from part of those energy sources and gives it to the other hero's core. This does not affect Helios' energy level at all. But if Helios is injured in battle, his power sources amp his energy right up!

Helios also has 1 or 2 pieces of armor that is always quite unique: his sunspot armor. In 2.0 form, the armor is on his lower left arm, but in 3.0 form, he has two armor pieces on his lower legs.

Helios 3.0's  plasma blasters are on the front 2 claws on each hand. They shoot superhot plasma that reaches temperatures of up to 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit. 


Helios is part of the makeshift Anti-Drone Junta that is being sent out quite soon.
That story can be followed at www.mission-drones.blogspot.com.


Interesting facts about Helios:

  • He is named after Helios (aka Apollo,) the Greek god of the sun.
  • Helios was originally intended to be a superheavy, but the Hero Cores suited him better as energy sources that he could use for his and others' energy, making him a medic.

More MOCs to come!
