Reception

Trivia

  • Nitroblast's head piece is the same as set 2193 Jetbug's, but placed backwards and red.
  • Despite what is shown in the box art, Nitroblast does not have a glowing green eye in his set.
  • In the set's front box art, his tube connects his right shoulder to the Plasma Blowtorch. However, according to the set's building instructions, this is an error, as the tube connects his left shoulder, on the part that holds his tank, to the Plasma Blowtorch.
  • Nitroblast's tank is a transparent orange variant of one of the two tanks previously used in set 7148 Meltdown, but with two yellow spikes.
  • Nitroblast has an appendage that connects his left arm to his back.
  • The set's HeroFactory.com description called him "Cracker". It is an error, but it could refer to his talent of cracking through security systems.
