Toy Line
The first Hero Factory sets were released around early August of 2010. This first wave of sets contained 6 small canister Hero sets, as well as four boxed Villain sets, two boxed titan sets, two larger boxed sets and a limited edition two-pack set.
The second wave of Hero Factory sets were released in mid-December of 2010. They featured six canister Hero sets yet again, with completely modified designs and two new Heroes. There were three boxed Villain sets and one titan set.
The third wave of the Hero Factory series came out in mid-July of 2011. For a third time they featured six canister Hero sets, one of them being a new Hero. It also featured three boxed Villain sets and three boxed titan sets (one, the Witch Doctor, of whom was far larger then any titan and is currently the biggest set-related character).
The fourth wave of the Hero Factory series was released on January of 2012 and also mid-Summer of 2012. For the first time, canisters were replaced with resealable bags (for only the small sets), Hero Core codes were packaged with all of the sets (for the Breakout game), and also the first time that the Lego Company had delay the release of the mid-Summer sets (due to pricing issues). Each Hero are now "assigned" to a villain that the Hero will be pursuing or battling. For the third time, they have completely modified designs. It also featured nine new Villain sets (four on January and five in mid-Summer) and three boxed titan sets (one of them was Stormer XL and the other was Speeda Demon with his vehicle).
The fifth wave of the Hero Factory series was recently released on January of 2013 and soon in mid-Summer 2013. For the first time, a XL set is now packaged in a resealable bag instead of being packed in a box and also the first time for the Hero sets to combine with the Villain sets. For the second time, all of the sets are packaged with a Hero Core code and for the fourth time, they have completely new modified designs. It also featured four new Villains sets.
TV Series
The Hero Factory TV series was an adaption of the comics created into animated episodes for television. The 1.0 series had four episodes, all of which were named after the comics: "The Trials of Furno", "Core Crisis", "The Enemy Within", and "Von Nebula".
In the 2.0 series, there was surprisingly a single episode titled "Ordeal of Fire."
In the 3.0 series, the episode (which was a longer one then the others) was entitled "Savage Planet".
In 2012, an episode, Breakout was split into two parts. However, for unknown reasons, the second part of this episode was greatly delay and was re-scheduled to be aired in Fall 2012 in United States.
After a short hiatus; the staff of Hero Factory released two trailers of a new episode, Brain Attack in 2013. It is rumored to be aired first in Germany.
