7179 Dunkan Bulk and Vapour is a 89 piece Hero Factory special edition set released in July 2010. The set contains two figures, Dunkan Bulk and Vapour. In the set Dunkan Bulk uses a Sonic Boom Weapon and a Metal Sphere Shooter.
Description[]
In this set, Dunkan Bulk has slight modifications, like an Av-Matoran jetpack and a new right arm, which is also used as the arm of 7170 Jimi Stringer, and an orange pipe on his head. Vapour's shoulder defense are made of the same part as Corroder's claws. His mask is identical to that of 7162 Rotor, apart from colour. Also, Vapour's weapons are Meteor Blasters with opaque spheres. Vapour's head is the same shape as the Heroes and the colour is blue.
Background[]
Vapour was able to shoot corrosive vapor using his weapons which are connected to two tubes.
Bulk fought Vapor at one time. According to two books, Hero Factory Secret Mission 4: Robot Rampage and Hero Factory Face Off: Makuro's Secret Guidebook in 2013, Vapor is arrested and imprisoned in the Hero Factory building.
Notes[]
- This set is the only villain set with blue opaque projectiles for the Meteor Blasters.
- Originally, LEGO spelled the set 'Duncan Bulk und Vapour' by mistake.
- In Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States, it was a Toys "Я" Us exclusive.
- It is believed that the set originally was going to be "Thresher and Vapour" because Dunkan Bulk closely resembles Thresher, Stormer's first team leader who appeared in flashbacks in the Hero Factory television series.
- Besides Bulk's regular blaster called the Metal Sphere Shooter, he also holds Stringer's weapon called the Sonic Boom Weapon.
- Vapour is the only villain that has two blasters instead of one.
- Bulk and Vapour is the only set to be a Special Edition in 2010.
- Vapour is the only villain that did not appear in any of the Hero Factory television episodes for an unknown reason.
