I would be very surprised if there was not a free Kreon giveaway at BotCon and ComicCon this year.

 

Judging by past club figures, Ramjet will be ~$44 and Cheetor ~$59.

 

Actually, a recent release in the Speed Stars line has his name as Bluestreak. And this Bluestreak Kreon is very blue, making him look more like Smokescreen to be honest.

I have the first-class membership 'cause I live in the middle of nowhere with a crummy local PO and so I don't trust stuff mailed third class to actually make it here. So because of that, I usually receive mine about 5-7 days before the end of the relevant month. Most people, who have third-class membership, receive their mags about a week after the beginning of the next month, from what I've read. So yeah, "this month" I'm sure means April.

 

odd-my copy hasnt shown up...

EDIT:: *reads post above mine* doh!

 

Yay? And, yay!

I knew they wouldn't waste the oportunity to interview her, with her upcoming JoeCon appearance.

Can't wait to get my copy of the magazine and see that.  

Cool! "creo" is also "I create" in Spanish ... and "I believe." Yeah, Spanish is like that.

Sad.

Creating the new metal molds for the new head is indeed expensive.

Unless you live overseas, in which case you might get it within a month of US 3rd Class members getting theirs.

 

Oh god, my brain, the Built To Rule memories, agh...
(passes out)

 

Bring it on!

 

Just wondering how you are making these estimates. P/CP was about 59 and Cyclonus was about 44. Any reason you think Ramjet will follow the Cyclonus price and Cheetor the P/CP price? I am more hoping that with the P/CP debacle, that they would smart up and produce more and at the same time reduce the cost. Here's to hoping.

 

In the absence of solid information indicating that FP is changing anything about how they produce these, I don't see why an estimate that suggests similarity to the past is something that should be called into question. He's not saying that they WILL be these prices, but it still seems to be the most reliable way to answer the often-asked question of how much these will be.

 

why do those kroe's transformers remind me of the lego people in a way? I do wonder if they can interact with lego?

 

Well at least I can give all the building sets to my nieces and keep the mini figures.

 

Too bad you have to buy the whole set just to get the Kreon figures. Some two packs of them might sell like crazy. But at least with the Kreon figures Hasbro might have found a way to get me over the Robot Heroes line getting canceled several years ago.

Now I just have to cross my fingers for an Agent Fowler Kreon.

 

I just find it funny how its so expencive for big companies like hasbro to make a little head mold but customizers and 3rd party companies can pump out very high quality custom made heads and sell them for 8$ to 15$ lol.

 

1) Customizers aren't - for the most part - creating steel molds for the new pieces.

2) Customizers aren't paying Hasbro for a license fee.

3) Fun Publications - who run the club and convention and who own the new molds - is not a big company.

And the list goes on.

They also don't have any safety standards to comply with, or names to copyright.

 

I'm gonna speculate and say... yes.
