BigPhill:
Good idea.
Wonder how much they'll be per packet.
If they work out a lot cheaper than the twin packs I may buy a couple extra for painting, or display at work.

Ooooh. I only have a few Robot Heroes, and I WANT more, but they're way too expensive for what they are here in the UK. If they do these blind-packed things for, say, £1.99, I will be there with bells on.
Dys:
I hate blind packing, but I'll buy a few if the price is right to try and fill the holes in my collection.
G1Wheeljack:
Reminds me of Crazy Bones, I'll probably pick one of these up if I can find them.
Nemesis Scourge:
Hmm, not so interesting for me. I already have all Generation 1 2-packs that were released in the Movie line and the Decepticon Sneak Attack Set will arrive soon. And except for the Target exklusive ALL G1 sets were available in Germany (and a few stores even had the first wave of Movie Robot Heroes).
I hope they release the Universe Robot Heroes here in Germany in the classic 2-packs. But they only released the Movie Robot Heroes in few stores, so I don't know if the stores will order them.
Rodr-Evil:
Nice, is like a candy box.
PowerPrime:
Could it be the G1 movie it refers to?

Considering you can get two regular Robot Heroes for £5 depending where you get them from (play.com has them for that cost) and there's no risk of getting unwanted toys that you already own then I'm going to be sticking with the regular packed ones.
knook:
I've never had ANY interest in Robot Heroes, Until now
and the packaging at the bottom has the UK flag, Italian flag and Spanish flag
Brave Magnus:
Crossing fingers to see those in my region.
samtastic:
I LOVE Robot Heroes. Have them all already. Still this looks tempting somehow....
Do you guys think they'll include chase figures? Or redecos?
And are these going to be released in the states?
I don't do customs, but if they are cheap it's a good time to try....
nkelsch:
CRAP.
So while it doesn't mean new molds, it DOES mean chase figures. And for robot heroes completionists that is a bad thing
Dinobot Nuva:
So glad Hasbro hasn't done this in the US yet, I'd prefer to keep my full set as easy as possible to achieve.

These types of blind figures are not very popular in the US. Except for 'games' like figure and cards, blind pack toys don't go over well here.

Um... How do you know there will be chase figs? Has Hasbro ever done that before?
Sage o' G-fruit:
Robot Heroes (and other 'heroes') are on my 'never get in a million years list'
until now. If it's coming to the U.S, then I might be intrested, but not really otherwise.
JAYSCREAM:
Cant see there beeing any chase figures. does anybody know what stores these will be in? maby a local newsagent thing rather than a toysrus/tesco thing.
. but i do need to finish these guys off.
Railguard:
These heroes things are kinda silly but if you like them all the power to you!!
Chaosbringer:
you can add Portugal to the list of countries that these guys are showing up. Just saw some in a local toy shop and at TR'US over the weekend.
Not my kinda product but I suppose they do have a market.

Blind packed stuff always has chase figs or rare cards, it is part of the business model. With no chase, there is little to no reason to buy piles of them and trade them. Usually every box of blindpacked has a 'rare' figure and somethimes a chase figure.
Not sure if Hasbro is going to do it, but I suspect it will.
LightningZERO:
This is interesting
Maybe there's some secret figures

If anything, repaints!
cappeca:
As much as I like these, I'd rather have Attacktix there instead.
Thundercrackah:
Man I hope they include Ultra Magnus in these somewhere down the line, I missed out on the him and Megs RH pack.
Magnus' Mate:
An interesting idea! But not sure if I'll bite yet - will all depend on the price here in the UK, and ease of availability...
