    Not sure if these have been spotted before in the US but I found a nice full case sitting on the shelf of my local TRU in Montgomeryville, Pennsylvania this afternoon. They do not have the identifying #'s on them as has been previously noted, the only thing is some have the id # on the back (same on each package - 41461) in grey, some in black, but it's not an even split (12 & 12) so I don't think that means anything. I can confirm after opening the whole box that it does still contain 2 complete sets.

    Bought some earlier in the week; they were just put out a few days ago at MONTGOMERY TRU, AL. These are true blind packs as the numbers on the packs are meaningless compared to the numbering system from previous Kreo packs. :(  Despite picking blind, I did score a black arachnia, a wheelie, 2x trailbreakers, 2x sunstreakers, a skalor, and a scattershot.. or some plane variation. :) 

    But yes, they are out.

    Guess I'll have to start hitting up TRU again. I went over the weekend but no sign of them then.

    Ugh, hunting down a set without the ID numbers will suck. I hope this is a one-time thing and not the start of a trend.

    i just got into kreons because they only where available at one store her ein my city, but now that there are some(wave 1 aoe blindpacks) near where i live, i just gave them a chance and they are pretty fun, and you know? though i have 5 different ones, i wouldnt mind having multiple of the same sets, that way i could make really cool TRANSFORMAVBLE customs, as well as an incentive to buy as many packs as possible

    What tells me the people who buy the whole case and sell the 2nd set will only ever sell that as a full set? I just want Blackarachnia and Seaspray...

    Kinda mad he gets a news credit, kind of not; as stated in my post I just bought these earlier in the week. What can you buy with news credits anyway haha. :-D Anyway, the answer to the question below is 'yes.' It is a COOL set to have if you're into the latest Kreo. Cheap too!

    Really liked the cheat codes. Not being a lego guy, I felt a little strange molesting 100+ lego blindpacks to get my full set of Simpsons figures. Damn you Chief Wiggum.

    I've got a lot of Kreo but I'm done now. By taking the codes off, they lost me.

    Ya I'm not going after these. LEGO CMF Simpsons was my first time feeling up plastic bags for plastic pieces, but kreons have too many parts inside. It was fun while it lasted. Went out with the SDCC set so that's good. :)

    I dunno how the heck they could even make that mistake to begin with, but this is the THIRD time it's happened with the Kreons (Misfire and Highbrow had swapped badges too). The heck is going on?

    Same here.

    I wanted Wheelie because I'm a '86 movie completest, but fuck it. I'm not going to support scalpers or stand there like a jerk and molest all the bags while people look at me like I'm a asshole for making all that noise.

    how can you figure out who is who by trying to feel the pieces through the bag? I mean maybe if they had a specific piece like wings for mindwipe or something...

    I was fading on keeping up with the Kreons in the first place. With no codes I guess I'll stop buying 12 at a time, Hasbro.

    Scattorshot: Cone piece and wings
    Seaspray: Pistol and Null rays
    Skalor: Duel Scoped pistols
