LEGO® Bruizer

Description

An opponent for the heroes

In the Hero Factory line the heroes face a gang of villains, and Bruizer belongs to the Villains subtheme. The set builds him as an articulated figure rather than a minifigure. At 62 pieces the build is quick, and the figure can then stand in almost any pose. If you already own heroes from the range, Bruizer gives you a fitting opponent for staging small battles, without the need for a large set or a big budget to get started.

Dark tones with warm accents

Dark bluish grey and black define the look, with red and orange as accents. The figure therefore looks heavy and strong, while the warm colours at joints and details draw the eye. That suits a villain who is meant to look threatening. Stand him beside a hero in lighter colours and the contrast is obvious at once. The colour column of the parts list shows which shades each piece comes in, in case you want individual parts for models of your own.

Nearly every second piece is different

Of the 62 pieces, 32 are distinct shapes, so comparatively little repeats. That is typical of articulated figures, where each plate and connector has its own job. It is useful if you are hunting for particular specialised parts, since many of them appear in only a few sets. After playtime you can count against the list and see immediately whether a joint or an armour plate is missing and which colour it should be.

Take apart, mix, rebuild

Hero Factory figures invite you to swap parts with other characters, such as arms, legs or heads. That makes it easy to turn Bruizer and other sets into an entirely new figure. If you want to know what else your existing pieces can make, the Can I build this? tool on Bricoria can help. The set dates from 2013 and is a compact way into the range for anyone who enjoys this style of building.
