Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 from 4 reviews

The package arrived safely and unmolested. As promised, the product was intact and without any missing pieces and as with most, if not all, Lego products, the instructions were included and easily understood. For me, the lure of this product line is the creativity of construction mixed with action figure imagination play. My son has about six other Hero Factory sets and they love them, him and his friends. Whenever they get together the figures come out and its an all out battle, I love it, Amazon and Lego.

Recommendation: meh 8 / 10 by Siegfried

He's my least favourite of the new baddies (I like DrillDozer), but I still think he's a good buy.

I would say that Nitroblast is best for his many new pieces, which is great if you want to start building using the new Hero Factory joint system. As a set, he's decent, but has enough undesirable characteristics that I prefer to see him as a pile of MOCing parts. The price of $12.99 USD might seem a little high, but I've gotten used to that price now and I think he's just as good as any of the other villain sets.
