    That would dissapoint me, I was hoping for new figures, otherwise theres no selling angle for those of us who bought the big sets already.........well maybe custom fodder.

    I really want those Kreon collection sets.

    Which how many neat ass Kreon upgrades there are in Fanart, that's a very good idea.

    The mystery has been revealed, its Starscream and (Sentiel, I think, don't feel like checking ha) yeah, way to go hasbro, build up suspense then just knock it all down with characters already seen.. smh, UNLESS they are random every time :)  I thought the mystery autobot would've been BLASTER!! :) ..but no :/

    Not a bad offer, if I was just starting out and didn't have the majority of kre-o sets I'd buy that lot right away :)

    EXACTLY my view point of that too, but however I saw online that Hasbro is to come out with classics like the G1 but with crome and gold and see thru weapons, attachments and body parts too!

    True, still working on a few random figure parts at the mo.

    Also, anyone come up with a better configuration for the big build sentinel prime yet, i've give it more articulation and its better balanced, but I cant get it looking good and be poseable at the same time.

    Hey, for anyone that cares, in the Cadillac,MI Meijer store, they have Kreo sets BOGO free. The bad news is all they have left is the USS Missouri from Battleship and Decepticon Ambush and Cycle Chase from Transformers. Still, this is great for troop building since you could get six Autobot/Decepticon grunts for $12.

    It's been a while, but here's my poor/lazy man's Hound. It uses parts from the Bruticus and Superion sets. I used one of the stickers from the Trailbreaker set and a Reprolabels Autobot sticker.

    The mystery kreons were eaten by my cat LOL.

    To my surprise, I found them in the local book store downstairs, the store is called "Nobletime", 10 bucks each. I'm in HK though.

    After a couple early scores in the Target Easter sections, I haven't seen hide nor hair of any of the Microchangers until today - found a few packets at a Walgreens; picked up Blastoff and Inferno.

    Both are pretty neat little dudes, and I really appreciate the use of the 'vest' pieces that don't cover the chest printing. Inferno will never see vehicle mode, I think, because of the way the plastic stressed when I swapped his hand out; fortunately his robot mode is plenty awesome. Blastoff is probably the best 'lay on my face' altmode I've seen yet out of these guys, and I like the use of the 1x1 dots to add to the back of his legs in bot mode.

    Maybe I should keep an eye out for Hook and the other Predacon, if the combiner sets ever actually show up in my area.

    I only have Megatron and Starscream from the first wave, and I'm not too crazy about either of them. But Megatron's truck mode is a more useful vehicle for the Kreons, so I guess he gets my vote.

    I wasn't at all when they first came out I thought they were going to be a giant fail like the Megablocks Armada ones -_- But i'm starting to take a shine to sets and not just the little kre-os
