Hero Factory/Headscratchers


 * Not having read absolutely everything that there is in the manual, I base most of my knowledge on HF's main storyline on the cartoon series. And this fails to explain a very important character detail about their first Big Bad: Von Nebula. What is up with this character? He seeks revenge on Preston Stormer, even though he was the one that bailed out on his mission, and left Tresher and Stormer to die at the hands of the robot drone. Stormer saves the day, yet he feels guilt over what happened to Von Ness/Nebula? Why? How? Absolutely nothing points toward this whole fiasco being his fault. And why should he have any kind of bad feelings at all? He saved the city, defeated the drone and Tresher apparently got out alive. Also, why would Von Nebula be seeking revenge? Stormer broke the windshield of the jet he stole, but got away unharmed. What has Stormer done to him?
 * This I blame on the poor quality of the TV series story. The animations isn't that bad, but the story is just bland. I think I've had a buddy tell me about some fanfic he read that remade and expanded on the story (giving the villain a valid reason for his villainy among them), but he's never been able to find it again...
 * Here's my idea: Part of him knows he shouldn't have bailed, so he feels guilty about it. But he's too proud to admit it, even to himself, so he tells himself it's Stormer's fault. He's angry at himself, and he projects that onto Hero Factory in general, and Stormer in particular.
 * Why wasn't Breez made into a 3.0? It would make sense for her to become one. Firstly, she's green, to fit with the whole forest/jungle theme. Secondly, in-universe, she can talk to animals. Wouldn't that be useful where they're going? Do they have a limit for how many times a supporting character can become a canister set?
 * I've been wondering the same thing, but the only answer I could thing of is that since Breez is a side character at best, and she had already gotten a 2.0 figure, they decided to leave her out, no matter how much sense it would have made to make her part of the Savage Planet plot. Maybe they'll have a story reason for it, too, seeing as this is something that I'm sure even the writers must have thought of.
 * Well, now that the TV show has aired, I still don't know of any story reasons. It seemed like Breez got left out of the mission simply because she wasn't part of the opening scene at Hero Factory.
 * It's worth noting that her ability to talk to animals wouldn't really be necessary, since Scorpio, Waspix and Raw-Jaw can talk anyway.
 * In episode 2 of the TV show, Stormer can't leave the HQ to help his men because his core isn't charged, and Furno's occupying the recharging chamber. Huh? This giga-hugeass and important facility only has one of those? Don't they have like hundreds of Heroes who need recharging on a regular basis?
 * In Breakout, we find out that . Then why was he so inexperienced that it was annoying in Savage Planet?
 * Simple: He was a newer Hero designed for the sole purpose of  He's a robot, so it's not entirely out there for him to be built for that one specific purpose.
