Code Help My local Walgreens reduced the KRE-O micro's down to .50. Anybody know where the codes are? The front of the package shows storm shadow, Snake Eyes, Timber, and cobra commander (I think). EDIT Apparently, the Micro Force lack codes. That's annoying.
Careful, there's some other mini figure packs at Walgreens that look like Kre-os, but are like little pvc statues.
I'm not familiar with those, but I'm pretty sure these are actual KRE-O's. I edited my post above, the ones I got are Micro Force and, apparently, have no codes.
Thanks. It doesn't seem like I will need them. I scoured the packaging front and back in the sun and didn't see any codes. And I just read somewhere that the Micro Force don't have any. I'll have to take my chances, I guess. I only picked up like 10 of them. I don't know how to pass on figures that cheap, even if they aren't all that good.
Wow, they are statues. They are real tiny, look like crap, and made of a soft, rubbery material. They are still worth picking up for $.50. Each pack contains two little figure stands. They are a bit larger than a quarter. I have a DKR Batman out in the car, and the peg fits perfectly in his foot. If you need quick and dirty figure stands in quantity, these might be good option.
I had gotten a bunch of the battle heroes 2 packs from tj maxx a few years ago for 3.50 each. They seemed like much better figures than these.
As toys go, they are pretty laughable. But I'll take figure stands for just 25 cents. I now have 22 more figure stands in collection. I went to another Walgreens where they were $1.99. They wouldn't price match. WTF?
I saw a bunch of those at Walgreens yesterday for 75 cents each, but even at that price I couldn't pull the trigger.
If I had known they weren't KRE-O's, I probably wouldn't have picked them up either, lol. But I'm glad I did. I have reviewed them if anyone is interested.
Tankblast is the nicest one I got. He's nicely painted for how small he is and has a great weapon. (Note: I had to take some green out...)
got a bunch of carded bc af and nf figures last week. and I also bought a collection. a lot of modern stuff. but some vintage stuff too. vintage mobat dragonfly hydrofoil(sold it) hiss tankV1 and V3. a lot of good stuff. tons of parts.
Yeah, disappointing... but given that the FSS had a pretty nice set of figures overall, and this one is just a bonus, I can't really complain. At least this is out there now for the purists who want one (though it seems more like something that should have been lumped into a vehicle set rather than given a special spot as a closely-guarded secret figure). Not a bad-looking figure objectively, but pretty anticlimactic. Funny, with both that and the news about the Tokyo Toy Show MP Bluestreak, this is the week of "toy-accurate decos no one really asked for."
