Hero Factory is a LEGO building toy line that ran from summer 2010 to the end of 2014. It is the replacement theme for the BIONICLE line, and borrows certain aspects of its predecessor. Hero Factory was cancelled and replaced with the return of BIONICLE in 2015.

Story

Heroes are mass-produced in the soaring Assembly Tower of the aptly-named "Hero Factory". The organization sends Heroes to catch villains, save citizens, and avert disaster across the galaxy, based on calls that come in to their Call Center. Fans of the line can actually call the Hero Factory at 1-888-4-HEROFACTORY.

Origins

The Hero Factory toy line is an attempt by LEGO to succeed BIONICLE in the constructable action figure—"constraction"—market. Hero Factory is designed to appeal to a more flexible audience than BIONICLE; while BIONICLE was more focused on story and much darker, appealing to the age group of 9- to 16-year-olds, Hero Factory is much lighter and more humorous, intended to appeal to a far wider age demographic.

Media

Much like BIONICLE, Hero Factory has a comic series to promote the sets. The comics may be seen on HeroFactory.com, though some of the comics have also made it into print. A straight-to-DVD movie, which was split into four episodes for television broadcast, was also created. There is also a podcast under the name of Hero Factory FM that is released roughly every week to tell the Hero Factory story in a goofy and humorous way.

Universal Studios may have been planning on making a live-action movie based on the toy line,[1] but given the discontinuation of the Hero Factory line, it's unlikely that this movie will be created.

Trivia

  • According to a blog post written by Christian Faber (one of the series' concept creators), Hero Factory was initially envisioned as an entrance to a wide and expansive universe, and its purpose was to satirize superhero stories. There was to be a dark secret behind Hero Factory, which would have been revealed gradually, eventually turning the series on its head. The supposed lesson was that Heroes aren't simply built or manufactured, but they become Heroes by achieving great deeds. The series' tone was to be based on The Incredibles (2004). This proposal was completely dropped by The LEGO Group, and the Hero Factory series was released as a simplified and heavily sanitized "good vs evil" story, exactly the thing its creators have set out to criticize. However, fearing that the blog post was worded too emotionally and could easily be misconstrued, the post was later redacted. [2]
  • The sets from each wave started to be worked on 2 years prior to release of the wave. Several images of set prototypes from the early develepment of the some sets were leaked online.
  • A theatrical live-action CGI movie adaptation by Universal Pictures was considered to go into production in 2012, to be written by Michael Finch and Alex Litvak and produced by Mark Gordon and Bryan Zuriff of the Mark Gordon Company along with Ben Forkner and Dean Schnider of Film 360, the production side of representation firm Management 360. No further news came of it since, and with the cancellation of the Hero Factory toy line and cartoon series, the movie was also canceled. It is unknown if the project ever moved beyond its planning phase. [3]
  • In The City of Lanterns 2022 set from the Monkie Kid theme, the Hero Factory logo can be seen on a sign near the train track. [4]
