    HERO Factory, 2010
    More details...
    ©2010 LEGO Group

    legoshop.com now has the entire Hero Factory line for sale - even 7179 Duncan Bulk and Vapor. Oddly, 7148 Meltdown, is only in the U.S. at the time of writing this. Price points are the same as BIONICLE, however all the canister sized sets are now bad guys instead of heroes, and all the 'big sets' are good guys only so far.

    Thanks to Brickset users "cwfrontline" and "essej1213" for the news tips!

^Why do you think so?^

I'll head off to TRU tomorrow and see if I can find the Furno Bike. In the case I do, I'll get three of the heroes, too. I have a $10 off $50 purchase Rewards R Us coupon to use.

I noticed the heroes are cheaper the the Bionicle Toa.

The prices aren't too bad. I might buy one soon

maybe just stormer and furno.....

WAIT NEVER MIND what is up with these prices?! 11 bucks for a motoran/agori sized figure?! I dont think so buddy... these may be as overpriced as starwars sets!!

I dont think ill be buying ANY of the heroes cos £8 is too much for 17 pieces. I might get some of the vilains like von nebbula and corroder and i might also get the furno bike. Its strange that the furno bike and bulk and vapour are exactly the same price yet the bike has around twice aas many pieces!

Actually, I worked at legoland a week ago in the Big Shop. All the hero factory, including Meltdown, have been for sale for almost 2 weeks now in England (This was as well as Star Wars and Atlantis).

hay lets not get hasty about hero factory. i've been waiting for this to happen cause i've been wanting hero factory villans

One thing I've learned haters of a toy line. They tend to not know what they are talking about. The Heroes cost $8 USD and the villians cost $12 USD. And they'll spam to say it. I'm glad that these are available, thanks for the info!

Posted by kaboomlegoman in United States, 14 Jul 2010 10:24

I have all the heroes except Furno.

Posted by KJM72 in United States, 14 Jul 2010 11:06

@ ndb - xactly what I was thinking... XD

And, at last, Bionicle is Transformed :(
@legobob *agree*

The thing I dislike about HF is there very stick figure like and there armor is quite lacking especially on the 1 piece arms...

Posted by live2servehm in United States, 14 Jul 2010 15:01

O.k. I LOVE hf. I think They are sooooo much cooler than bionicle. i just wish all the prices were the same for the heroes and vilians. :'(

Posted by Bodyguards17 in United States, 14 Jul 2010 18:28

hmm, a replacement of Bionicle which people weren't ready to accept, a very glitchy new video game, star wars even more overpriced than usual, and adult jewelry. Lego's days are numbered :(

Posted by starfire2 in United States, 15 Jul 2010 02:01

And TRU's. Ours was fully stocked!!!!

Posted by DrathMaul1997 in United Kingdom, 15 Jul 2010 12:12

@bodyguards17
I don't think lego will fall on even Mildly hard times For a Longggggg time, A long as ppl still buy things like the starwars UCS sets, I think it's safe :)

And (Just out of interest) What was wrong with the video game?

Posted by R4-G9 in Canada, 15 Jul 2010 14:10

has anyone found these at the lego stores?

Posted by Gresh in Armenia, 17 Jul 2010 03:04

It's a BIONICLE?

Posted by Gus263 in Brazil, 17 Jul 2010 09:10

I don't think I'll get even one, because the most interesting sets so far (Dropship and Furno Bike) have Agori-sized pilots and are expensive for what they really are (Dropship is ten dollars more expensive than Rockoh, that has the same piece quantity). And by the way, Furno Bike is very expensive to include just 165 pieces. I might now just buy past sets. 2008's Mazeka had the same price for 301 pieces.
And the titans still losing their piece quantity and articulation. It's better to Lego makes it right next year.

Hmmm from announcement: "all the canister sized sets are now bad guys instead of heroes, and all the 'big sets' are good guys". All the ones I got were the other way round. Baddies in far too big boxes and good ones in smaller sized canisters.

Like most of it apart from hollow all in one pieces and the tiny stickers...

@ Drath Maul the game had SOOO many game-changing glitches that I had to restart the game five times

p.s. It was just a joke, there have been a lot of negative comments lately about new products.
