Set Information
The set consists of 39 pieces.
On the foil pack's front art's background shows Julius Nex, a Hero from 6221 NEX and who is chasing after XT4 in Mechna.
By combining pieces from XT4 with pieces from Nex, one can build a non-canon combination model.
Features
The set features the Razor Disc Slicer, which can spin around. It also features the Laser Slicer, which has two claws that can move forwards and backwards.
Collectibles
The set includes a yellow head piece, which has a red piece attached to it for an eye. It also has a Hero Core. Printed underneath the Core is a code called a Hero Code, which could be entered in an online game called Breakout in HeroFactory.com in 2012, to earn 200 Hero Points. The Hero Core is not used in XT4's construction, but can possibly be placed on any of his armor pieces for storage.
Reception
Trivia
- XT4 looks somewhat similar to Meltdown and a Waspix.
- XT4 is the first HERO FACTORY set to have used the new small CCBS torso piece.
- Since XT4 did not appear in Episode 8: Breakout Part 1 or Episode 9: Breakout Part 2 for an unknown reason, he does not have his own Breakout Animation.
- Strangely, despite Nex having appeared in the Breakout game, XT4 and Mechna never appeared in there.
