Hero Factory 2011

[Aanchir]

Huh? Which LDD contains stuff like Bionicle parts? Mine LDD from the Lego site only contains regular bricks (LDD does mean "Lego Digital Designer, right?).

Same LDD as you're familiar with, but with LEGO Universe Mode unlocked.

There are obviously a lot of bricks in LDD that aren't in the regular DesignByMe palette (the palette which lets you purchase your own models). You can see this even by switching to the Mindstorms or Creator modes that are also available by default. LEGO Universe mode includes the full assortment of parts (not all the parts that ever existed, but every one that's programmed into LDD) in any color of your choosing. Read the topic for further details on how to unlock it.

Thanks Aanchir, I didn't knew that.

To make this post still on-topic: Is it possible that the torso armour is also attached via a ball joint? I seems so if I look at Jetbug's arms...

Going by the armour pieces, I'd say it is. Everything seems to be attached via ball joint now. I'm really excited about this, it shoots playability and posability to insane heights.

[Bfahome]

It could be either. On one hand, all the armor attachments we know about are ball joints. On the other hand, some of the mid-length and longer limb pieces may have pin or axle holes in them.

The torso armour is definitely attached by ball joint.

look what I found in brickshelf...

Edit: On second thought I am not sure if it is fanwork or not. Still shows some details, I guess.

Edit: found this: http://mylegonetworkblog.blogspot.com/2010/11/hf-game-ordeal-on-fire-available.html

I think the images are ripped from a HF web game.

Great find! Unfortunately the game has been restricted now, but hopefully somebody saved the swf. I'm really glad to see confirmation that Evo uses purple though.

Not sure if it's confirmed, there is some color differences like on drilldozer arms and on the frames used, that are NewDarkGray instead of black.

Yeah,wonder where he is.

[vexorian]

I remember I saw all four villains, but it seems I forgot to save drilldozer from brickshelf last night. Sorry.

[Bricks2000]

Well,someone has to see it.

[Mesonak]

The finalized pics.

all i have is the prelim pic.

[Mesonak]

Haha, I'm afraid we're all at a loss; They haven't been released yet.

I'm honestly beginning to worry, because finalized pictures of almost every other theme have came out except Hero Factory; I fear their release date may not be in January, but rather Spring.

It's almost certainly January - otherwise the prelims and the few teasers we've had so far wouldn't have been released yet. I'm surprised the sets haven't started showing up early yet, but it looks like Atlantis and Pharaoh's Quest have that privilege instead.

[dviddy]

Release date is definitely December/January. And you will see pictures in December.

Well, from the scans we got some time ago, in europe, they will be released in spring (it's written "march").

Yes indeed. And most of the finalized pics we've gotten for other themes come from Dutch websites. Since the release date is March in the Netherlands, then chances are if we do find finalized pics of the Hero Factory sets they'll be from a different source.
