“Bruizer is an okay set as a standalone. He has a nice theme to him, but the gimmick ruins a major part of the figure. With that said, if you do modifications to him as I did, and you have no issue doing so, then he is one of the best figures released so far in my opinion.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“The LEGO Hero Factory "Bruiser" set is a striking addition with its bold design and unique "evil brain" feature, which visually transforms the rock giant into a menacing beast. The large, well-molded pieces and posable joints allow for multiple display poses, and the fist-activation function adds an extra layer of interactive play.”
