    reusing parts, nothing new.

    they need to just blind bag these little buggers already. I wonder if they ever improved on the bricks, they're really sharp.

    Kreo seems to be really coming into its own now. The sets largely look better than last year's, and there seems to be a greater variety of pieces as well. All they need now is to improve on the plastic quality of the Kreons, and they'll be perfect.

    I wish they'd make the Kreon figures singularly in bags like they do the Star Wars supermarket toys.

    Me, too, man. The Kreons are the only reason I give these sets a look.

    My guess is that they're waiting to build up a decent backlog of kreon accessories to mix, match and recolour before introducing blind bags. Unlike the kreo bricks, which are manufactured by Oxford, which has been manufacturing such bricks for years, the kreon molds are brand new and are currently lacking in variety.

    Thought that bull dog in the stelth Bee set was a pig for a split second.

    Kinda digging the Vortex Kre-O set. He looks pretty cool.

    I feel dreadfully alone as the guy who largely buys the sets for the bricks as opposed to the Kreons.

    I see that the ironhide kreon is being made available, but the hound kreon that was shown last year isn't in any of the new sets this year. Kinda sucks, was looking forward to him. Guess he didn't make the cut for these sets.

    I wanted an Ironhide Kreo, with my Ironhide Kreon.

    The kreon will probably end up in a set I won't want to buy.

    That Vortex set is the first Kre-o set that has made me feel that I absolutely must have it. Can't wait for that one.
