But on a serious note, im sure the reason is based on business. Kreo sales spoke for themselves in the US. Many store shelves kept nice and warm during the height of the kreo outbreak. Kreo figures are too small for little kids, and too dumb for older kids. Its a very bizarro niche market for people who like to collect cute things. Maybe the MLP or hello kitty crowd bought into it. Its the Asian market I guess...

At the time Kre-O launched Spinmaster released the Ionix brick system and that was by far a better transforming brick, that ultimately failed too. I bought a great deal of the GI Joe sets since those were vehicles that will probably never be released in the 4" line. Unfortunately my interest in Kre-O died with a sudden stop when I had to break down a bunch of sets to decorate for Christmas, and they were stopping with the codes on the blind bags. Lego has too much of a hold on the toy isles, and a vocal fan base that will shout down any other brand.

I could have grabbed a bunch of those sets on the cheap, but that one set turned me away from them quickly.

I'm assuming that's Robots In Disguise Underbite
If that is from the same set I believe it is, yes that should be Underbite.

I was thinking more of the Tenkai Knights bricks. They were 2x4 bricks that could turn into humanoid forms, those would've been perfect for the Micro Change line
