    Hero factory is a clear case of not appreciating what you got until it’s gone

    If hero factory got brought back i think it might help Lego company out of its recession.

      I’d actually be down for hero factory to return, there’s less stakes that way and if they want to bring back Bionicle then they now have a modern constraction line to go off of

      Bionical has been brought back too many times at this point. It’s basically running off of nothing but nostalgia. Hero Factory deserves a second chance

    As a kid growing up in the late 2000's to 2010's Hero factory was a massive part of my childhood. Lego was my all time favourite toy, and the heroes were like massive transformers too my minifigures. I just absolutely loved it.
    To this day, I'm sad they cancled the theme, I would happily have kept collecting them. I still have all my old ones proudly on my shelf

    I was in the ideal age range when hero factory came out, and I did enjoy what it offered. But before that point, I had gotten glimpses into bionicle during its own late years. Even though I was "too young" I still was mystified by the 3 sets I got during the baramagna wave. Herofactory may have been easier to build, but Bionicle was always more interesting and had more of a community. Biotube was a huge part of my childhood. watching others tell their own stories and inspiring me to imagine my own. As time passed Bionicle only became more appealing.
    There are a million other things to note. the lackluster and mismanaged CCBS system, the failure to follow up on plot points from previous waves, and the feeling of repetitiveness from brain attack and invasion from below. Nothing fails for only one choice or mistake.

    Bionicle fan here and while I get what they were doing with Hero Factory but I never liked the tagline "Heroes are made" as if you can only be a hero by a production line. Also the way they change form/ upgrade or kinda lame as in they have to suit up for the situation which made me think they were not flexible heroes. Ok yes the same can be said with the Toa but I can exuse it cos of plot like the Inika were struck by a special lightning that turned the Matoran into Toas.
    It a shame they didn't continue the story. Would of loved a "villian factory" plot like the villians stole the fuzion core or whatever it was to make the Hero and they make their own Villian factory. Ok yes the jail break story did introduce the villians that were similar to the heroes but didn't they still got more than the hero? Just wanted a villian that were like the Paraka or the Rakshi etc!

    I was to young to experience bionicle but i was there with hero factory. Me and my friends really liked it and i had a lot of herofactory sets. I think the problem with this series was not a big plot. They left a lot of cool idea open like with Von Nebula return and him getting plans for building villain factory. But they never did it. I remember how hypped i was on that but no a brains attack.

    I was a top notch master builder during that era, which was basically all throughout elementary and middle school. I basically retired when Hero Factory was discontinued. Though, not gonna lie, I really only enjoyed Hero Factory for the movies, of which Savage Planet and Breakout being my all-time favorites to this very day

    Hero Factory brought its own death upon itself no way anything was going to replace Bionicle and as we have all learnt focusing on a children's audience is a great way to kill your product

    A huge opportunity I’m surprised LEGO never did was using the Bionicle and/or Hero Factory pieces to make a Transformers line. They could’ve done a Movie toyline, g1 toyline and a classics toyline alone.

    Hero factory was, for me, the chance to get what I missed with Bionicle since I only had glatorian, a few metru as part of a random lot, and the stars when I started. I liked it a lot in the jungle theme, and it seemed so cool, however it did make me sad how by the time I had a character, they would have a new suit too, which meant for me that I no longer had the canon version and since I was bad at moc making then, it made me feel worse. I started at the breakout wave, and I loved it. My favourite character was surge, and I loved the way the characters looked. Also, the brain attack game was nice, too. I also loved because in my city, there was a moc building challenge where the prettiest mocs are displayed, and I loved to do that every year. I got the chance to experience it and it was nice but as I got older I was wondering why it is so different from Bionicle. I tried getting my hands on them but they seemed like a myth yo young me since I couldn't find any directly, until I got a tahnok from a sale as a gift from my mom. Bionicle felt awesome. I got into the heroes game too before and my passion had been reignited. I guess hero factory was good for children but it didn't feel as good once it was outgrown, while Bionicle was and is harder to get to, but is much more fun in the long run

    I loved Ninjago as a kid, but stopped at season 5, as I felt it lost it's touch after that. The best was season one and two. I never really had Bionicle or at least have no memory about it, but I did have quite a bit of Hero factory from 2010 - 12, but properly only because I loved Transformers.

    In my opinion as a Lego and Bionicle afectionado Hero Factory per se was a pretty good show, howhever the sets were lacklusting.....the frame was the same for almost everything and to me was like buying action figures, it was less the 'make your own version of this' and more like 'change the skin of these guys to make it cooler'......this is just my opinion though

  • @someweebboi6628

    I think the series started dying since Brain Attack as it feels like it uses very low amount of pieces than what it seems and feels to be (especially Dragonbolt, and the heroes apart from Furno and stormer)
    .
    and yeah the fall escalated when the heroes were turned into minifigures

    I think the reason it failed was a lack of variety. I loved this theme but you can’t tell me seeing the same 6-9 characters year after year wouldn’t get stale. In universe there’s supposed to be hundreds if not thousands of heroes so why not introduce us to new ones each year? And you could still keep updating some of the more prominent heroes like stormer, furno, and rocka
