* EnvironmentSpecificActionFigure: Each wave of upgrade designs for the heroes after the 2.0 upgrade fall under this trope (with the exception of the unnamed upgrade from ''Invasion from Below''), with the 3.0 upgrade being animal-themed jungle gear designed specifically for traversing the jungle planet of Quatros, the 4.0 upgrades being designed specifically to counter the abilities of the respective villains that each hero had been assigned to re-capture (with the exception of Rocka, who had received his upgrade before the breakout had even occurred), and the ZX-79 upgrade being knight-themed armor and gear designed specifically to combat the invading Brain parasites.

* AbortedArc: Christian Faber the co-creator of Toys/Bionicle and Hero Factory has stated that [[spoiler: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEFOkphDGG4 Makuro is intended to be a Turaga or Toa from the Bionicle universe]] who was displaced from his original reality through an incident involving the "Well of Time," and realizing a need for heroes in his new universe founded Hero Factory as an imitation of the Toa he was familiar with. It seems the concept never got far beyond the pitch stage, and is canonically dubious at best... although it certainly makes Makuro's face looking so much like a Bionicle Noble Mahiki mask seem like less of an accident and more of an intentional arc tease.]]
