1. Lego oriented fans who want to build each model seperately.
2. Transformer oriented fans, who want to built the set once, but convert it easily between forms once they build the model.
Both sides think the other side is an epic fail for not seeing things their way.
Pretty much.
On the transforming sets, that's a pretty nice rendition of Incinerator, I have to admit, and arguably better than the original, haha.

Looks like Lego did a spectacular job with that set!

Kre-O could stand to learn a thing or two about joints from Lego.
Also, there's another Creator robot, Thunderwings:

Indeed. Hopefully Hasbro will pick up on "Ratchet joints for hips are good."

As far as I'm concerned, Kre-o sets are just raw material for kitbashed display environments for my Kreons.
That Lego, though, looks pretty good. Just pop a Kre-o robot head on him, and you'll be set. You could probably paint a Prowl head green and have a convincing Springer.
