    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.

    I hate blind packing, but I'll buy a few if the price is right to try and fill the holes in my collection.

    Reminds me of Crazy Bones, I'll probably pick one of these up if I can find them.

    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.

    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.

    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....

    CRAP.

    So while it doesn't mean new molds, it DOES mean chase figures. And for robot heroes completionists that is a bad thing :(

    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.

    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.

    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.
