Ecosystem

Hero Factory 2.0 series characters — Bulk is noticeably taller due to extended leg pieces; now has three pin hole lengths per leg versus one previously

Hero Factory original series characters — Bulk returns as an improved version of an original; maintains original character status while being strengthened and modernized

Earlier breakout series characters — Bulk maintains consistency with other summer 2012 breakout series releases

6283 Voltix 65 — Both are medium-sized summer 2012 sets with 61 pieces (best equipped in the wave for piece count).
