I was never really considering buying any of these kreo guys untill I opened one up. They are actually very cool especially the characters they chose to release. Here is a little teaser for some of you if you are not to sure if ya want to start the kreo collection. Enjoy

Thanks for sharing. They are neat for sure. Have you picked up all the sets? What's your thoughts on them?
-
So far I got:
- Checkpoint Alpha
- Ninja Temple (my son mix it with some Ninjago...)
I love them. I also heard the wave 2 is starting to show up in the USA...
So, if anyone buy multiple set and want to get rid of the figs, let me know! I will buy or trade!
-
Can anyone enlighten me on the number of articulations on these figures? Thanks!
-
5. head/neck, shoulders, hips. like any lego figure.

And wrists!
Also, the shoulders and legs have a little more movement than Lego figures as the joints are ball jointed.

Actually, it's more than 5. I counted 8:
- Neck
- Shoulders #1
- Shoulders #2
- Hip #1
- Hip #2
- Wrist #1
- Wrist #2
- Torso/hip (so he could turn on himself... perfect for ninja move!)
And, I don't know how you count these, but some movement are different from original Lego like:- Arms can move sideways
- Legs can move sideways
So, 8 points of articulations with more movements than original Lego arms and legs could do. One thing I don't know is if new Lego figs have more articulations than original Lego figs (from the 80s).

So far I have picked up the battle station and the ninja dojo set. The station is pretty cool it comes with the fang chopper and the motorbike I posted. I have also picked up some blind figure bags. I would suggest the boat kit its very cool 2 boats and the vamp Jeep!! That's For sure my next purchase. Oh and the law and order firefly set is cool and affordable. Its priced around 18$ I think

Wrong set ;) He was referring to this one with FIREfly, not the DRAGONfly. :) And it's even more affordable at $13.

This week all Kreo sets at TRU are 30% off so now is the time to go and get the ones you are looking for the most. Good luck on the blind bags though, I checked out 2 local TRUs and they didn't have any left.

Is there any indication that the blind bags are also in sale? If so price adjustments are in order.

Yes they are as far as I saw with the TF Kreons
-
Thanks. I'll have to dig out my receipt.

confirmed blind bags were on sale too, picked up a bunch! Thanks for the heads up

Hi guys! I've just posted a full review of the Collection 1 KREON figures!!
If anyone needs a close up look at each of them head over to the reviews section. :)
-
^^ Loved the review thanks.
Anyone know if the Series 1 blind bags are likely to be restocked soon at TRU stores? I'm supremely bummed that I may have missed these. I managed to grab one of each of the "sets" during the sale last week, but none of the stores I visited recently here in Alberta had ANY of the blind bag figures.
Am I forever screwed?
-
I'm having the same problem finding the blind bags. I was able to find a few but I am definitely missing some of the essentials.
-
Discount are back :-)

One new store will open soon, they just stocked the GI Joe section, what items should I look for besides the Kre O figure.

Where is this new store?
-
I'm honestly surprised these sell as well as they do. At the convention there was a lot left over of the Fun Publishing stuff and I thought a GI Joe convention would be the place to sell out. I never even bothered getting myself a set of the kreo 6 pack when I was there.
Yes, I got most of wave one blind bags, but they still strike me as a short time novelty. That being said I'll end up being totally wrong and these will be the greatest thing ever. ;)
-
They sell out fast here... I got a complete set, plus a few extra army builders.
I have a freind that goes to the states alot, and gave her the codes. she picked me up a bunch of the army builders.
everytime im at tru here, the boxes are near empty... its always scarlett and torpedo that r left over for some reason.

But... they ARE the greatest thing ever. ;D

Guys, I just started a poll about the Kre-O collecting in general, based on your latest discussions on the matter and inspired from Morg's opinion :) http://www.joecanuck.com/jc/index.php?topic=6776.0 (http://www.joecanuck.com/jc/index.php?topic=6776.0)

Finally... finally... finally... I found 2 complete boxes at TRU"" Woohoo!!! I'm now looking for trading 4 Alley Viper for 4 Cobra troopers ;D .

Already another Snake Eyes ::) (but this time with Timber), Destro and Baroness (cool!). The Hiss looks cool too.
