In order to confront aerial opponents, Daniel Rocka had a Jetpack to achieve flight.

History

Nathaniel Zib developed the jetpack for Rocka, and it was placed in storage in the Hero Factory. The jet-pack was top-secret.[TBW](Dragon Bolt vs Jet Rocka!)

When Rocka was searching for Dragon Bolt, which got possessed by a Brain, during the attack on Makuhero City, he was cornered by the Dragon and trapped in a weapons-holding section. There, he outfitted himself with the jetpack, and took on Dragon Bolt in airborne combat. During the fight, Daniela Capricorn, who was witnessing the fight, nicknamed Rocka "Jet Rocka" because of the jetpack.(Dragon Bolt vs Jet Rocka!) After flying through Makuhero City, dogfighting with Dragon Bolt, Rocka eventually put the jetpack in autopilot and ejected himself out of it, which still floated in the air, and landed onto the dragon, where he removed the Brain from the beast.[Episode 10][TBW]

Functionality

The jetpack is capable of high-velocity flight, and includes a number of offensive and defensive capabilities. The wings are edged with ultra-sharp Plasma Blades, or Plasma Wingblades, and the wings are movable by extending and retracting. The cockpit bore an opening defensive shield, which is a tracking device and has a force heads up display. It also fed information to Rocka through his Visor. The jetpack has large ion engines.[TBW][FO:MSG](Dragon Bolt vs Jet Rocka!)

It additionally features dual Plasma Shooters, which are a variation of the Plasma Gun, and four missiles for blasting purposes. Each side of the jetpack has one of the Plasma Shooters and two of the missiles. The Plasma Shooters can be positioned upwards or in front of the jetpack.

Rocka can put the jetpack in autopilot, so when he ejects himself from it, it can still float in the air.[Episode 10][TBW]

It is possible for the 2.0, 3.0, and Breakout Heroes to wear the jetpack due to their structures being similar to the Brain Attack Heroes.

Set Information

Rocka's Jetpack is included in set 44014 Jet Rocka, released in the summer of 2013. The set contains 290 pieces, 247 of which are used to build the jetpack while the other pieces are used to build Rocka's special form, which is taller than his normal Brain Attack set in early 2013 and never appeared in Episode 10: Brain Attack for an unknown reason. The jetpack features two sphere launchers, which each shoot a piece of spherical ammunition when squeezed. It also features four flick-fire missiles, two on each side, as well as an opening cockpit and wings that lift when a trigger is squeezed. The wings can extend and retract when triggered, and the sphere launchers can be positioned upwards or in front of the jetpack. The jetpack can be equipped with a different Hero set figure.

Trivia

  • Rocka is the only known Hero in the series to have used his jetpack.
