    I just took advantage of the free shipping and 20% off $100 or more over the weekend to get the regular Devastator set and another Lego mini-figure case (total came to less than retail for the Devastator set and the Lego case ended up being free on top of that). It sucks that you would have to get both sets if you want green Devastator and the bonus stuff. Oh well.

    Love it but will wait for inevitable clearance.

    Good thing I haven't bought Devy yet. The moment I get my next paycheck, this set is mine!

    Ironhide is built like a brick shithouse. Wait, no, the thing next to him is.

    Tempting. But I collected every Kre-O from last years wave and was very disappointed when compared to my Lego. The builds leave a lot to be desired...
    Then again, why stop the collection now?

    In my experience, Toys R Us would rather sit on their exclusives forever than clearance them out so we'll be waiting a long time for a price drop of any sort.

    Maybe it will be different with Kre-Os since there is such limited shelf space and a lot of demand for that shelf space. I know with regular figures that are exclusives clearances are few and far between.

    My local TRU still has exclusives from three years ago that have dust on them and they refuse to clearance them out.

    So you get a full size Ironhide Kreo for only five dollars more than the original set?

    AND I just noticed but does this set come with a PORTA A POTTY???

    The regular Devastator set is 560 pieces. This one is 781. That's an extra 221 pieces.

    That's a pretty darn significant addition.

    This is probably one of the better Kreo sets out there. It's a battle in a box and a great way to get people to buy it where as before you might have skipped over it.

    I really have to resist the urge to get both this set AND the regular Devastator one so I can display both Devastator and the Constructicons. Oh and of course Ironhide. And the G2 Devastator Kreon.

    Shit, I think I just talked myself into getting both. Dammit.

    Wow.
    I seriously need this one. Is it a Toys'r'us exclusive?
