Nocturnus addresses the Sempax

After seeing LEGOJANG's videos "Specter addresses the Sempax" and "Onyx addresses the Sempax", I decided to make a video in a similar fashion with our own stealthy hero, Nocturnus.

My inspiration for this is the great MOCist LEGOJANG.

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Trooper v4

The latest Hero Factory MOC I've made is Trooper v4.

Trooper is a rule-breaker who will do anything it takes to defeat his enemies. The Hero Factory has strict regulations that prohibit the use of corrupted Quaza- yet Trooper uses two in his energy crossbow. The Quaza powers the blaster and gives it far better accuracy.  Another rule that Trooper broke is the use of Hero Recon Team technology. Despite the rules, he has a villain helmet to go undercover and infiltrate compounds.

Interesting facts:

  • Yes. Trooper was made in LDD Extended. I am planning to make a real-life version using spray-paints.
  • Trooper is partially based on LEGOJANG's MOC, Boravus 3.0.
  • Despite wearing XPlode's mask, he is not going undercover as him.
That's all for now! New MOCs are yet to come!

Hero Factory summer sets appear at Nuremberg Toy Fair

Here are some pictures of the Hero Factory summer 2012 sets as they appeared at the Nuremberg Toy Fair.

Things to note:

  • SXL has a cool new skeleton build
  • Speeda Demon has a new lightning piece.
  • Speeda Demon and SXL make an awesome combiner.
  • Stringer has a trans-blue chestplate.
  • Nex has a helmet which is essentially a duplicate of the 2.0 helmet, but made to fit on a Glatorian head.
  • Voltix's head is gunmetal, not silver.
  • XT4 has a cool new laser weapon. The head is actually slightly rectangular.
  • Red Savage Planet claws. 
  • Core Hunter uses the epaulet design as seen in one of our 3.0 MOCs.
  • Black Savage Planet paws.
  • Turns out Bulk did have a black MTIS. 
  • Stringer has a silver MTIS.
  • Trans-blue armor on SXL.
  • Core Hunter has a head with 4 eyes that look like goggles.
Now, here's the pics!








EDIT 2/15/2012: A YouTube member uploaded a character spot video for Stringer v.4.  At the end of the video, a picture of the final packaging was shown. Take a look!

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Alternate Universe Surge

In the Hero Factory "Rise Of The Rookies" DVD, Surge worries that he has a flaw and will someday become evil. Well, what if he actually DID have that flaw and WAS evil? Well, here's the answer.
The alternate universe Surge is basically Surge with a new, "evil" color scheme. His weapons still function normally, and so does his laser-proof armor, but the only thing that's changed is the circuitry near his "brain" which is altered slightly so he is working for evil.

The "anti-Surge" also is very antisocial, preferring not to work for anyone except himself.

Well, that's all for Anti-Surge! More MOCs to come!

Lego Hero Factory MOC: Steampunk

In the Hero Factory, many great weaponry feats have been achieved. Take Furno's magma blades, Stormer's multi-tool weapon, and the great MTIS. Who, do you wonder designed all that? The answer is one of Hero Factory's great weapon designers, Steampunk.
Steampunk is one of Hero Factory's leading weapon designers, specializing in projectile weapons most of the time, but sometimes resorting to making blades. He designed many great weapons, such as:
  • The Multi-Tool Ice Shield
  • Most of Maximus Team's weapons
  • Some of the Anti-Drone Junta's weapons
  • Furno's Magma Blades
  • Surge's rifle
  • Rocka's claw
  • Stringer's sonic boom gun
As you can tell, he is a weapon designing legend, and because of that, he's got to have his own weapons, right? His double barreled MTIS weapons shoot molten lava, and the MTIS shields also have precision cutting claws.

Well, that's Steampunk for ya! More MOCs to come!

Big news involving MOCs!

As you may know, the part of LEGO's DesignByMe service where you get to buy your creations ends today, January 16. But luckily, I've managed to buy a few characters from Mission: Drones! and other stories. But I will still be making the Mission: Drones characters with real parts after today. How, you ask? With Pick-A-Brick, of course! I bought two characters that have yet to be shown on Mission: Drones PLUS Mission Manager Martinus Zibelia! Pictures will be uploaded as soon as my shipment comes.

Also, the StoneHart MOCs team experimented with parts lately, and one of the results will be shown soon!

And finally, I have SCORED Breez and Thornraxx from an eBay seller from the UK. Reviews will be up soon! I still haven't uploaded Ultrabuild reviews and Breakout set reviews! But they'll be coming soon!
