    They're so cute and fun. Not for me though, if they make a Grimlock one I'll get it though.

    Also, I'd probably just buy little single packs of the little kreons too.

    Megatron's Kre-O reminds me of a stormtrooper

    They displayed Megs doing the squat..just like they did for Prime..what's with that??? ...hmmm??

    Okay, in addition to Prime, I will add Prowl, Ratchet and Jazz. These guys are pretty awesome!! The more I've seen of them the better they look. :thumb

    After finally getting a good look at the "minifigs" it appears that there are heads and "helmets" just like Lego Minifigs, which make them all that much more awesome for cross-customs in making sci-fi lego dudes.

    As much as I'd like the mini bots its just not Lego.

    Ask any Kid if they'd like Lego or Megablocks and they'll say Lego...Its going to be just the same with Kreo no matter what brand is slapped onto it.

    "Hey, do you want an the New iPod or this Transformers branded iMp3 player?"

    If they had joined forces with Lego We could have had Lego Transformers the Video Game....and you know how awesome the Lego Games are.

    And Doe Kre-o actually mean anything (Lego translates as Play well) or is it just some weird mix up on Kreate-os with 'street' spelling and letters close to Lego to confuse grandparents in toystores?

    Still say they should've called them Has-Blocks...

    They do look quite frickin' awesome though. If only I was 8 again *sigh*

    Oh man...feel sorry for the Seeker Kreon fans...since we gotta buy Starscream, Sentinel Prime, and the big trailer version Optimus to get the big three.

    Yeah no doubt. I LOVE the Lego video games, the whole lot of 'em. Even the series that I'm normally not a fan of, like Star Wars...the Lego games were just great.

    Kre-o is derived from Latin creo (creare, creavi, creatus sum) which, when conjugated, means "I create"

    Some of the sets look half way decent like Mirage. The basic Prime is pretty cool along w/ the larger Prime set. Still wish the figures were sold individually...love that little Thundercracker.

    Surprisingly, Megatron and Starscream look the best imo. The boxart certainly made Megatron look a whole lot worse. I however, am not interested in buying any of these....



    Ok guys....bring on the good stuff. Enough with all the crap we've already seen. If I wanna see DOTM wave 1&2 I'll go to my mancave (or as I like to call it, the Watchtower because it's a loft lol) or Walmart. Hopefully saturday is actually fruitful with galleries of things NEVER seen before.

    Hate how apparently you can't transform these, you have to build them in vehicle or robot mode. Hate how Megatron has no fusion cannon. Starscream looks awesome

    So far that G1 Starscream Kre-O is my favorite, but I don't like his robot mode.

    I feel the same way about all of the original G1 seekers. They looked great in jet mode but horrible in robot mode. I keep all of my G1 seekers in jet mode just as I would with this Kre-O if I decide to buy it.

    Thank the maker for the Classic seeker mold though because they look great in robot mode.
