    Speaking of hard to get Kreos, anyone know how to get ahold of the Elite Optimus set? The one that was a Canada TRU giveaway about a month or so ago.

    Thanks! Building tiny transformable models is so challenging and so much fun.

    So here's my final version of Bumblebee. Didn't like the original alt mode, didn't like the offset hands in robot mode, but I did like the front end, so here's what I came up with.

    ALT MODE

    Pretty neat, simonlaw16 :) 

    Where do the black double-barreled guns come from?

    Does anyone think the odds are at least 51-49 we'll see the AoE sets at discount stores now that Kre-O's officially Toys R Us exclusive? The Beast Hunters sets have shown up at discount stores and while not officially, the line was basically Toys R Us exclusive already with no one else carrying it.

    Not that accurate yet, but here's HOSEHEAD!

    Just went through my box of spare parts to see what I could come up.

    Will have to add some details on the helmet using a sharpie, but I'm happy with how this turned out.

    You need a 1x1 white flat tile to finish off the nosecone (and maybe another one to replace the 1x1 brick behind the cockpit?). Otherwise he's perfect!

    So, I decided to build a trailer for Optimus.

    And sure enough...

    Super mode!

    Other than breaking the trailer into armor parts, no partsforming at all. Arms (hands + trailer feet) and feet (bumper halves) actually transform a bit.

    My WIP Snapdragon and Apeface.
    Apeface needs more coloring on the helmet, but I tried to capture even the bulky kibble on both bots.

    That's originally what I thought, but Vortex helmet is dark grey.
