6293 Furno is a Hero Factory set released in January 2012. This set contains 56 pieces.

Description

Furno, in his Breakout form, is specially equipped and armed to fight Jawblade, the amphibious atrocity in shark form. He uses a red plasma gun with a harpoon launcher on top, a pack to speed up underwater, and a shield that could double as an arm flipper. On his right shoulder, he has a transparent orange armour plate. Long silver cords run from his back, under his arms, and to the top of the aqua jetpack. Though the set only includes one hand piece, the hand holding the gun is mostly hidden from view except when the gun is taken off. Like on most of the Heroes, his handcuffs are situated on his right thigh armour.
On his body armour, the printing appears as flames, shooting up from behind Furno's Hero Core.

Background

In Breakout, Furno was first seen in 2.0 form in the villain storage level escorting Voltix to his cell. He fought several villains as they escaped, and later was upgraded to hunt down Jawblade on the planet Scylla. After being covered with rust by a sample of Oxidium, he escaped its effects by recharging his hero core and then caught and cuffed Jawblade. He arrived back at the Hero Factory in time to help take down Black Phantom’s Arachnix drones while Rocka defeated the villain.

Bio

Everyone involved in his creation agrees: Furno really is exceptional. He is the very latest model, state-of-the-art all the way. When Furno’s Hero Core was initially charged, it triggered a Quaza reaction that nearly blew everyone watching away – literally. The blast so exceeded the norm, Hero Factory scientists all agree that it was much more like a final Hero Core charge than the initial. So everyone can only excitedly wait and imagine what will happen when Furno passes his last Mission Trial and gets his final super-charge. No one doubts Furno has what it takes to become a full-fledged hero... that is, as long as his luck holds up in the field and he makes it through in one piece.

Notes

Despite being the “fire” themed hero, Furno is equipped for underwater combat in this version, having an aqua jetpack, and a harpoon.
In the March/April 2012 LEGO Club Magazine, it says that Furno’s plasma launcher doesn’t work underwater because of the extreme pressure. However, on HeroFactory.LEGO.com it just says his plasma launcher fires slower in water.
He is voiced by Eric Christan Olsen
