Mission 3: Total Meltdown

Mission:
Total Meltdown
Team:
Rookies Will Furno, Natalie Breez and Mark Surge
Objective:
Stop Meltdown before his sends a Power Plant into Meltdown.
Breez's Log:


This mission was a tough one. I wasn't just protecting the nearby city's from the explosion. I was protecting nature as well. See I have a 'link' to nature, and a nuclear explosion would damage the environment. Anyway, we searched the power plant for Meltdown. Furno was concentrating hard and was clearly trying to find Meltdown. Whereas Surge wasn't concentrating at all, he was whistling loudly banging his feet on the ground annoyingly.
"Will you stop that!" I exploded.
"What?" Surge asked, but I had a feeling he knew what I meant.
"We should split up." Furno broke in. "That way we'll have a better chance of finding Meltdown."
"We can't." I said, a bit harsher than it should of been. "We need to fight him together."
"What's the matter, Natalie?" Surge taunted. "Afraid you can't beat Meltdown without us?"
"I'll get you for that!"
"You wouldn't dare."
"Cut it out!" Furno said. "We need to be fighting are enemy's, not each other."
"Fine." I said, then I walked off.

After a while I managed to find Meltdown on my own. I quickly called the guys for help then went to confront Meltdown.
"Hey!!!" I shouted. "Over here?"
"Hero," Meltdown hissed. "Prepare to watch this Power Plant go into Meltdown."
"Not if I can help it." I threw my boomerangs at him but he was too fast. He grabbed me with his tentacle and threw me across the room.
"You cannot defeat me, Hero." He hissed.
He walked over to the controls but before he could do anything he was hit by a blast of electricity. Then I saw Surge and Furno standing at the entrance. This time it was Furno's turn to make a stand, he shot a blast of fire at Meltdown. I got up and put the Hero cuffs on him before he could do anything else.
"Nice job." Furno congratulated "Both of you."
Then we began to walk to the ship.

That night I decided against putting a bug in Surge's sleeping pod. After all he did save my life. Today was another success for us Rookies, and hopefully there are many more to come.

Mission 2: The Sound of Thunder

Mission:
The Sound of Thunder
Team:
Alpha Team Veterans Preston Stormer, Jimi Stringer and Dunkan Bulk
Objective:
Shut down the factory which is constructing a army of destructive drones.
Stringer's Log:


We arrived safely which doesn't happen often. Some of the drone's that had been fully constructed were already attacking the city.
We started fighting them immediately. Bulk enjoyed crushing them which I was expecting. Stormer had made a scrapheap but he had already got a few dents in his armour. I was taking a few out but my armour was no better than Stormer's. Then I saw about a dozen of bots marching towards us.
"Cover your audio-receptors!!!" I shouted to Stormer and Bulk. Then I turned up the volume to the super sonic level. No doubt the sonic blast was effective, all the bots shattered like glass. Speaking of glass I also broke a lot of windows.
"Awesome!!!" Bulk cheered.
"Nice job Stringer." Stormer said, obviously impressed, and impressing Stormer is not easy, believe me.
"Thanks Alpha leader." I replied.
"So are we going to destroy more bots?" Bulk asked.
"No," Stormer answered. "We're going to shut down that factory."
"Wait" I said. "What if more bots attack the city."
"Good point." Stormer said. After a few seconds he thought of a strategy. "I'll defend the city. You two go and shut down the factory."
We nodded in agreement then began the long walk to the factory.

We got inside easily. All Bulk did was take one shot to blow up the guards and the door. We walked in expecting a fight but there wasn't one.
"Thats odd." I noticed.
"Who cares." Bulk said. "Let just get this over with."
As soon as he started to walk in the alarms went off and some bots started walking in. We were about to take them out when a hologram of something appeared. It was Thunder, one of Von Nebula's gang.
"You!" Me and Bulk shouted.
"Glad to see you remember me." Thunder said in his cold metallic voice.
"Its hard to forget a face as ugly as that."I teased.
"I will enjoy watching my drones crush you." Thunder said.
"Go to the scrapheap." Bulk shouted, then he shot the hologram. When it passed straight through the image Thunder began to laugh.
"You know what Bulk, your still as dumb as you used to be." Thunder teased.
"Well your not that much smarted." Bulk shouted back.
Just then the bots aimed their weapons at us. "DRONES, FINISH THEM!!!"
As soon as Thunder gave the order the bots charged at us. Bulk was enjoying himself. He charged through the group destroying every bot in his path. I didn't hesitate to turn up the volume, I shot at the group of bots, destroying quite a few.
The battle was over quickly. Only after it did we realize the Hologram was off. Beyond the next door was the main factory.
"After you." I said to Bulk.
"My pleasure." He replied. Then he charged through and I follow behind him.
"So, you survived my Drones." Thunder said with a wicked smile on his face. He was standing on a platform above us so he had the high ground.
"Yeah!" Bulk said. "And now were going to take you out."
Bulk began to charge but before he could do anything Thunder shot a Meteor blast at him. The blast was so powerful that Bulk flew back and hit the wall then lay on the ground unconscious.
I kept my cool but inside me I began to fell anger. I shot a sonic blast which knocked Thunder off his platform. I charged at him but he was to quick and he grabbed me with his crusher claw. I activated a sonic wave which pushed him back and made him drop me. Then I noticed something far above my head. It was the PowerCore. Then I saw Bulk getting up.
"Bulk!" I shouted. "The core."
Bulk looked up and nodded. He shot the core and the hole place began to explode. Thunder jumped of the edge of the platform. When I looked over the edge I saw him rising up on another platform. He shot the wall and then turned to us.
"Foolish Heroes. You have chosen your own demise." And with that he was gone.
Me and Bulk quickly jumped up to the gap in the wall and escaped just in time. unfortunately we could not see Thunder anywhere. Then I looked behind us and saw the explosion and I knew Stormer was never going to believe this.

Preston Stormer Opinion

Hi,
I just did a review of Preston Stormer and I gave him a 7/10 As I said in the review Preston Stormer is my Brother's. This post is about his opinion on Preston Stormer. This is the first time I've done this and I may do it for the other sets he gets as well. Now onto my Brothers opinion:


I think the new pieces are cool. My favourite is the helmet because it has a cool design. I also like the body armour because it looks icy with the spikes. The leg armour is another cool piece because it makes him look more bulky. The colour scheme is cool but the black piece on his right are doesn't match the colour scheme. The part I don't like is the hollow arm. Overall I agree with my brother and give him a 7/10


That was my brothers opinion on Preston Stormer. Remember their will be no more HeroFactory reviews for a while. Please comment and follow,

2010 Hero Review: Preston Stormer

Hi,
My brother got Preston Stormer when I got Natalie Breez. He is cool but I do have one complaint which I think every one knows: his arm is hollow. But he still looks cool.


The Build was even simpler than the rookie's. Because you only have one proper arm you don't as build much. I'm giving the Build a 4/10

Same as the other Hero's, there are a lot of new pieces. 8 in total. The helmet is cool and has a visor along his eyes. The Body is the same as the other Hero's but the body armour is different, it has cool spikes that give him more of a icy feel. He also has a trans-blue HeroCore which is exclusive to this set. He has the blue limbs which are cool but he only comes with 3. The leg armour is the same as the others but they look cool in white. The feet are also the same as the others but in are in white. The weapon is cool and has a nice trans-blue crystal affect, he also has a buzz saw, a harpoon and something else but I don't know what it is. His right hand is moulded into the weapon which give it a nice affect but the con with the weapon is that it is hollow. I'm giving the New Pieces a 9/10

The playability , as you know, is not so good on its own, but together with some of the other Hero's and Villains it would be very fun so I'll give a 5/10

Overall, I like Preston Stormer but my only complaint is the hollow arm. He has a nice colour scheme and some cool pieces. Overall I think he deserves a 7/10


I don't have any more HeroFactory sets to review until I get some more, so their won't be any more reviews for a while but their will be posts on other things. Please comment and follow,

2010 Hero Review: Natalie Breez

Hi,
I got Natalie Breez a while ago but forgot to review her. She is not my favourite Hero but she is still cool. Green seems to be the new female colour. Anyway, on with the review.


The Build, as always, was simple. You don't really need the instruction booklet but I used it when I'm building it the first time. I'm giving the build a 5/10

There are a lot of new pieces. 8 different one's. The Rookie chest plate is the same as Will Furno and Mark Surge (I don't have Surge yet) but in a different colour. The Hero Core is in a cool red but it doesn't match the head piece. The Helmet does look like a insect and that relates to the story because she can talk to wildlife, which includes insects, this is only a guess though. The Boomerang's are cool and are almost completely made of a strong rubber. I'll give it a 9/10

The playability is not so good on its own, but together with some of the other Hero's and Villains it would be very fun so I'll give a 5/10

Overall I like this Rookie. She has a cool colour scheme and nice pieces. All in all, I think she deserves a 8/10


Expect a review of Preston Stormer soon. Please comment and follow,
