These things really are awesome. I just put together the little ninja set and really like them. In that short little bit, I really don't feel any difference from lego. Perhaps as I fiddle around with them a bit more I might, but first impressions are that the quality is darn good. And what a load of fun putting the sets together. I am looking forward to putting together a couple more sets. I think I might be hooked on these!

I really hope these catch on with the kids. It's a great fit for GI Joe and the play value is fantastic. As much as I love the classic 3 3/4 line and it will never, ever be replaced, you get way more bang for your buck right now with these than with the 3 3/4 line. Much more affordable to army build, plus you get playsets! Say you have $100 to spend on joe stuff. With kreo you could get a few sets and end up with 5 or 6 vehicles, a playset, and a dozen or so figures. With 3 3/4 you'd maybe get 6 figures and 2 vehicles.

As much as I'm looking forward to getting Kwinn and the Tomahawk later this year I must say these are pretty awesome.

Kreo: Putting the fun back into GI Joe toys!!

I just hope the Kwinn wave makes it to Canada, and in decent numbers. Crossing my fingers...

Hmm, that's a bummer. I don't make it every year, but it is too bad there won't be one this year. Let's us know we shouldn't take it for granted. Hopefully it will be back as strong as ever next year.

I've been debating putting $100 down on a vintage Tomahawk for a few years now. That new Tomahawk looks amazing. Guess I just saved $50.

Same here. I had one as a kid and it broke right after I got it. Always wanted an unbroken one! It's my favourite helicopter in the Joe line.

The most exciting news is Kwinn coming as a regular single pack figure. Cannot wait to add him to my collection. A couple of the "Ultimate" figures look great, but the "Ultimate" movie ones are not something I'm interested in. Give me an "Ultimate" Firefly based on the original design and I'd pick that up.

Overall, I expected to be excited about little to nothing with the movie line expected to dominate, but Kwinn and the Tomahawk have me excited. And Kreo looks pretty cool, but still don't know if we're even getting it in Canada.

These look pretty cool. I'll no doubt pick up a few here and there. The ninja set is a must. Unfortunately some of the other things I want are grouped with a bunch of stuff I have no interest in. For eg. The set with Stalker all I want is Stalker. And the VAMP is not bad (seems kinda small), but a mech suit? Blech! I also wouldn't mid the RAM and Fang, but not the rest of the stuff in that big set. And CC too. Anyway, I will likely get a few select figures and sets.

It's interesting the reaction from some folks. People write off kreo instantly because it's not lego. Lego is good. In fact its awsome, no doubt. But is kreo up to the same quality? Has anyone tested the durability of them compared to lego? Just curious, and i wonder if people will give it a fair chance.

Just got my Valentine De landro pages framed and on the wall.
Hope hes back next year! these are my favorite purchase of the 2012 con!

Nice pages. I really like the wild bill page with the helicopter. I almost picked that one myself, but I'm not a big wild bill fan so I went with a couple other pages. Where did you get the frames? I'm curious since I need to frame my two pages and I'm not sure where I should get them done. Do they have any UV protection or anything else special to them? I've never framed comic art before, so don't know what is ideal.
