Set Information

The set's canister

The set was released in late 2011 as one of the six canister Hero 3.0 sets. It consists of 30 pieces.

By combining pieces from Stringer 3.0 with pieces from 2144 Nex 3.0, one can build a non-canon combination model.

Features

Stringer's weapon's three claws can move up and down.

The set's canister represents a Hero Pod in the story. On the back of the canister shows Stringer and Nex combining their combination model.

Collectibles

The set includes a black helmet and orange-yellow Hero Core. The helmet looks like a bear's head. Stringer has a transparent green limb armor piece that has his name and a picture of a bear's head on it. Printed underneath the canister's lid is a 13-digit code, which was used to unlock Stringer 3.0's portion of an online game called Creep Crushers, specifically a version of the game called Jungle Crushers, from the HeroPad section of HeroFactory.com in late 2011. Also included in the set is a sticker sheet with one circular sticker that promotes the Hero Recon Team website.

Reception

Trivia

  • Stringer never had a 2.0 set, despite his 2.0 form appearing in Episode 6: Savage Planet Part 1.
  • Stringer's right forearm is shorter than his left, which is as long as the other 3.0 Heroes', for an unknown reason.
