Devastator and Superion looks convincing, but I can't say the same for Bruticus.

I think it's the head of the Combaticons and Bruticus. I think only Vortex looks okay. The rest, you gotta keep telling yourself they're combaticons. Guess they really need to come up with unique head molds.

I like it. I think the combined mode has a good, bulky balance to it. Superion looks awful to me mainly because all Kre-O planes seem to look bad.

That looks awesome, especially the Onslaught. My only nit-pick is that Brawl is smiling. If anything he should have a snarl on his face, even though he has a face-mask in G1.

The beauty with Kreons is you can swap parts around. Skorponok has an orange visor and a snarl, so he'd be perfect for Brawl. Same can't be said for Swindle, however, as nobody has purple eyes. Well, Waspinator and Airachnid do, but they're obviously not appropriate for Swindle.

this sounds like a job for Tresob and his sticker faces!

I have a feeling the photographer (or Hasbro) got the heads mixed up. Brawl's head looks more like it should belong to Swindle, aside from the purple eyes. I'll just give 'em the switcheroo.

Aside from that... F YEAH KREONS!!!

I am seriously in love with these new line of Kreo figures.

I can't throw my money at the screen fast enough. Now if only I could find a store that carries the new wave of kreons I'll be set.

SWEEEET! I will be doing some swapping on this guy but he looks good to me! I'll pick up all of the sets, SW55

Well, I think it's safe to say I'll be buying about 2,000 of these.

It's kind of messed up that these are probably the best-looking (non-third party enhanced) combiners that Hasbro has EVER released. If I was into the Kre-O stuff I'd totally be buying these, they look fun.

We now have some in-hand images of the Kre-O Transformers Micro Changers Combiners Predaking set. Like the Superion, Devastator, and Bruticus sets, you only get four Predacon Kreons, Razorclaw, Torox, Headlock, and Divebomb with the fifth team member, Rampage, in the blind pack assortment. The fifth man isn't necessary for the combined form, but will allow collectors to round out their team. Images mirrored from Fatguy's Blog below:

They're looking good! Too bad 4/5 guys have the same helmet, but otherwise they're awesome.

by **wulongti** » Thu Dec 20, 2012 11:26 am

after checking out the full gallery on the OP's blog I think I'm going to include wing/feather extensions in the Predaking upgrade set

Now if only there were some way to combine all the weapons into a giant sword...

Their heads remind me of the Coneheads, for some odd reason. :-?

yeah I thought that too, I guess cause the helmets are so tall compared to the size of their heads. and Dive Bomb has a Megatron helmet 8-|

This is probably the one micron set I might pick up.

by **RAcast** » Thu Dec 20, 2012 2:25 pm

I've said it since we first saw these that Predaking is the best set. And that's saying a lot, since Devastator looks amazing and Bruticus came out pretty well too! My issue with Superion lies mostly with the lack of a decent gestalt helmet but the rest of him looks good.

I find the fact that they don't give you all 5 team members in the box set to be a big disappointment.

Well, you don't need all five members to form the gestalt and it keeps the price down, I suppose. They're marketed as being $12, so 12/4 members = $3 a piece. Same as you'd pay for the blindpacked Kreons.

Please... PLEASE do Menasor and Defensor next!

These little guys look great. I think I'll actually try hunting down the 5th member to complete the full group after I pick up Predaking.

Also, I'm totally going to snap off thd front of those vests they all are wearing. Those tampos look great! It's a shame to cover them up!

Totally agree man, a lot of the Kreons have some really nice looking tampos that are getting covered up

Found all 4 sets at Meijer today in Michigan. I picked up Bruticus and Devestator. Really like the kreons. The decos keep getting better and better with each release. I think I might have to go back for the other 2 sets. They were $10.99 each.
