Looks like that's the G1 Grimlock set considering the name and that the "Grimlock Street Attack" is also on the website but listed at $21.99.

I think I might take the risk and buy it!

EDIT: Yeah, I bought it! Hoping that doesn't bite me in the ass later! "Grimlock Street Attack" has its own page with a different price, this item has a completely different bar code and the same web number as was previously stated and is apparently heavier by 0.5 pounds.

If my parcel arrives with the wrong thing I'll probably cry though,

 

For those of you just joining us, the two Ultimate Kreon collections are back down to $7-$8 on Amazon (with Prime available). So is Defensor...

 

Yeah, those are some really great prices.

I wanted to buy the "Battle for Energon" set for Prime Optimus and Megatron Kreons for $22 as well, but sadly it wouldn't ship to Australia.

 

Actually, yes. My Onslaught in my Bruticus set had the same problem. I made it word by making him a large figure like the G1 Scramble City toys.

 

Is the general consensus that Computron and Menasor will never hit retail? Any chance of another Hasbro 20% off coupon?

Need to grab abominus and Defensor as well - may grab Defensor from amazon at 7 bucks!

 

I never saw them anywhere except hasbrotoyshop.com. Also never saw the wave 2 Custom Kreons anywhere. Victims of the Kre-o transition to Toys R Us exclusives and the movie coming out. Seems lucky that the Wave 4 Microchangers made their way to Walgreens.

 

So, found grimlock at my local tru (bought 3)
The kreons ARE variants!
Bumblebee has a different face, prime has different hands and lockdown has a different face.
The set itself is really nice, comparable in size to mp grimlock.
I'm hoping to see this as a new trend from kre-O.
I'm so glad I didn't buy the set on eBay I wanted.
Buyer got greedy, I picked up 2 sets for what he was asking for 1.
Going to use 2 sets to make a custom grimlock in botmode.
Other set is for Dino mode.
Couldn't be happier with this set!
And yes, the 24.99 set is the correct one.

062547.


Now just need elite optimus, silver knights and the universal studios set.

I've seen computron and menasor at target.

 

I thought they did hit retail, well I've got them anyway from BBTS back in December.

 

The king is here

 

That is so cute!

I don't know which version I want to display. Its basically Sophie's Choice.

 

Hmm. That's encouraging, actually. Good luck, let us know how it turns out!

 

Today I opened the "Cell Block Breakout" set I bought a week ago. Really I bought it for the "Evasion Mode" Kreons though!



The Optimus is so cute! Weird that Kre-O is the ONLY place that got the Evasion colors right! Bumblebee's face is majorly creepy though. Why don't they just give him his mouth-less movie face?

Once my Hot Rod arrives I might make a Dead Prime custom, the helmet's pretty perfect for it...

 

Love the sharkkart! My favourite so far!

The Grimlock set looks amazing! Im hoping to pick it up in Asia as I imagine there is bob all hope of any Kreo in the UK.

 

For Evasion, it's good to know that the Kre-O team still knows what they're doing (except for wave 5...). I sort of want the Evasion Kreon and I applaud the accurate-ness but I don't care for the colors on him. That being said, if you can find some gray hands and a gray torso adding an Optimus printing, you'd have an anti-spore Optimus!

And I saw your ghost Starscream. That's exactly what I wished the custom went for from day one because a lot of those body parts are just random. If just for Starscream they did his translucent parts with his appropriate colors, it would've been perfect. What you did was close enough with what's out there. It's a real shame that most can't copy what you did without wave 2...

 

I don't want to make anyone made with this post, but being as kre-o is kind of a niche market, I figured I try a post on this thread. I'm more of a Masterpiece collector and anything that catches my eye, either HasTak or 3rd party. I was able to find complete sets of micro-changers wave 3,4 and the new 5. All are still in there packages and was able to get the boxes for each set, I also have the 4 new custom kreons (Optimus, Lockdown, Ratchet, Drift). I'm not looking to make a big profit, I just figure there might be someone who might enjoy them more than I do. I'm only looking for cost, shipping and a small finders fee. If this is something anyone would be interested in, please send me a message.

Again I'm sorry if I upset anyone as this is not a buy/sell/trade thread. I just know the market for kreons is smaller than that of a Masterpiece toy. Enjoy your day and I truly do think that that kreons are so cool, I just don't think it is something that I can collect.

 

latest stuff I've been working on.

photo 1: did you know that Lego makes a whole line of ride able beast figures? I just found this out.

photo 2: movie scene?

photo 3: the grimlock unleashed set seams to be a tribute to the masterpiece figure. I wonder if we may see other "tributes" to TRU masterpiece figures. Could a sunstorm set be in the future?

photo 4-5 micro-changer aoe galvatron.

 

Pounch and Wingspan,

 

Nice! I picked up a second Wingspan figuring that I'd monkey about with a Pounce beast mode...but you've done the hard work for me.

And there's something about your Pounce legs that reminds me of those military robot dogs...

 

i would love to see someone make a grimlock bot mode with this kit
