    And I just bought a bunch of sets to get the Kreons....granted they were dirt cheap but still. While I appreciate this effort they've pretty much shot themselves in the foot in regards to Kreo set prices. Now I'll never buy another set for them and just wait for these kind of packs.

    I'll second this. If they'd mentioned this earlier though, I'm sure the sales would have been even worse. I didn't buy any until they went on clearance. lol

    BTW, am I the only one that thinks the shadow in set one looks a LOT more like Shockwave than Starscream?

    No, I thought the same too. However, in the first picture you can see white legs with a red waist on the box picture and to my knowledge the only Kreons from the Kre-O sets with those are Ratchet and Starscream. Neither helmet shape really fits the sillouhette but I think Starscream fits the overall theme better.


    Then again, a Seeker goes completely against the Autobot car theme in that second set.

    Well, more food for thought is that in the bigger picture later in the thread (where it shows the first 5 pack clearly), there are NO wings behind the mystery fig....hmmmm. lol

    The shadowed picture seems to be more of a generic silhouette than a clue.

    Surprised they didn't include a new figure as the surprise, in order to entice those of us who bought the sets. :) 

    I don't mind. I got mine for really cheap, and now that they're doing GI Joe stuff, I'm glad to have the pieces. Gonna build me a Pit one of these days. :) 

    An Ark would be a good project too, but we need more orange...

    Awesome! Been trying to get the ones from the sets individually on eBay but they're like $10 a pop. This is great news!!!!

    I was thinking Shockwave, but then if you look at it closely there's more of a resemblance to Soundwave because of the head crest. Which makes no sense. Why would they have Soundwave AND Soundblaster in the same dang set.

    I'm kind of glad that I missed out on the original sets. Only really wanted the kreons anyway. Now it's just a matter if any other place will have them other then RK.

    I wish they announced these 4 months ago BEFORE I bought entire sets and went on ebay just to get old kreons.

    At least it's good fodder for making new characters. I need an extra Bumblebee so I can make Sunstreaker.

    Well, now I can get a Megatron Kreon without him having an energon sword for a hand, so that's nice.
    Mildly peeved that I picked up a Sentinel set for the Soundwave Kreon and now it's being released like this, but considering I got it on clearance for $20, I'm not that angry over it.
