With the release of the new Hero Factory theme, I decided to review my favourite of these sets…the evil villain, Von Nebula.
Von Nebula is the leader of the Villains. Featuring spikey armour on his shoulders, and a fearsome staff, this model really does look the part. It is pretty well built and sturdy. The only thing that lets that down is the neck, which can be modified by using a blue +/0 peg in the second + hole and transferring the head to the second peg. Annoying I know, but it is possible to fix the problem.
The overall model itself looks amazing. Von Nebula is a fantastic black and blue combination which suits the character well. Standing over 22cm tall, he towers above the Heroes (and the other Villains for that matter).
Finally, the blades on the staff spin, creating a weapon fit for the leader of the Villains.
