Chros moc was mad cool, I love the shaping and part usages, those food guards in yellow and all the metru red pieces too. Lord__oblivions build was done as a small collab with a couple other people and some others made their own mocs that use dual molded pieces, they're all wonderful. Kaneczi_mocs has been making both Toa and Protector revamps and they're all amazing, he brings a level of quality with every moc he makes.
Xplode looks cool, and then you see his weird double elbow. Why did they chose the old Slizer limb piece for his arm? That's so weird! Would have made more sense to go with the Metru shins or some other thing.
I yoinked the parts from my Nitroblast moc in order to give Xplode those keetorange spikes you see, as well as the flame pieces. Also I like how you talked about the other Xplode revamp being Buff and Cartoony, cause after my Xplode revamp I made a quick joke moc where Xplode is Johnny Bravo (Johnny Xplode) cause they share the same voice actor.
I hope sometime in the future hero factory gets un canceled not rebooted but continued after invasion from below its a possibility all be it a very low one.
I don't know about anyone else, but despite using Bionicle parts, the 1.0 Hero Factory wave doesn't really feel like Bionicle to me. Like, if this exact set was placed into a Bionicle wave, he'd look out of place. Very odd. Haven't really pinpointed what sets them apart from their predecessors.
Break out and 1.0 villains are the best. I mean Witch Doctor is good, but heroes fighting villains are more fun than fighting bugs or other creatures. We want to see Captain America fight Red Skull, not fighting bugs. That why breakout and 1.0 are the best, because they are fighting villains.
