-As a Hasbro emplyee- Alright, who's the wise guy who put up the Sentinel Prime image?!

just thought Id'e point that out.

i was really dissapointed when i found out you had to take them apart PIECE BY PIECE to transform them.
(just a little sad, just a little)

but like you said they aren't transformers so i won't buy them and based on the forums niether will the lot of siebertron. WHY HASBRO!!! WHY!!!!!!!!!

I think they are selling the little miniature dudes in like sealed bag type deals. Might get them as they are awesome in an adorable kind of way. The fact that the big guys don't actually transform, but you can just build them in one mode or the other is a let down. Consider my interest gone.

Are these things as good as Legos?

i know these might be useful to fancypants on youtube.

he (and possibly patrikboivin) would be the only person who could make these sets look good

I actually really love what I'm seeing here. I might just collect them purely for the little lego guys, "Kreons" or whatever. The Shockwave Kreon in particular really grabs my interest.

Wait wait wait…

So, you're telling me I can take apart my Legos and build something else???

Get out!

Wow, what a bunch of bitchy little girls!

Here's a bit of insight for you guys. The little kids that wind up with these sets aren't likely to leave them as they are ANYWAYS, they're going to utilize the specialty pieces, add them to the rest of their sets and build some freakishly huge multi-limbed creation that, to their way of thinking, is the coolest creation ever.
The adult collectors are likely to assemble this into whichever mode the prefer the most and then use it as a display piece. They aren't likely to take them down every other day and play with them so they aren't going to give a rats-a**!
Now, those of you who are complaining...let's face it, these never would have been your first choice to begin with, you blokes are more likely to go for the standard figures and are just being overly critical of these for the simple fact that you can be.

I've tried making detailed, transformable figures out of Legos in the past and unless you are willing to dump a whole load of cash on a wide assortment of sets you aren't going to have a finished product that actually transforms AND looks good. This company is giving us everything we need to have an accurate looking TF as possible with all the right pieces and even if it doesn't transform, so long as it looks good in BOTH modes, I'm willing to put some actual time and effort into it. I'm sorry to hear that the majority of you aren't but I should have expected as much from young people today.

Urmm it's definitely NOT the G1 version.Why? It's the same Mack truck from DOTM. And G1 Megatron is a Pistol/Gun o.O...That should be a CLEAR difference x_x...

Successful troll is successful.


In the spirit of "nothing good to say, don't say anything at all" I really like the mini-figures of the Transformers.

Me too, I really want Soundwave and Shockwave.

i might just have to try one of these out.

i can't remember the last time i built anything out of "legos".

anyone else wish starscreams head was a bit bigger?

I'm starting to really like that Megatron.

Looks like someone forgot about robot heroes and robot replicas.

Like everyone else, I would've been interested if these guys transformed without being like G1, where you had to take them apart to transform, but this is worse. And like you said Onixprime, I would actually buy the little itty-bitty guys if they were in 4- or 5-pack baggies.

I luv how Megatron's white on the front, and blue on the back of the package.

Total drek.

I wouldn't mind buying the Starscream but alas only American bidders

Never fear. They'll be available world wide in a few of months.

Well, everything except that Kre-O Skywarp...

Well, what Hasbro didn't tell YOU is the fact that they made sure distribution would make it near impossible for you to get it.

Everyone else won't have a problem though.

Nah, I'm just someone that knows where to insert the knife and twist.

I'm a nice guy with an iron, but gentle grip.

Only when there's cake involved.

I'm still waiting to see these figures at retail. I'm interested in a couple, but after BTR, I'm using caution.

I pretty much only want them for the Kreons. Everything else will probably get thrown out or given away. Though it irks me to get rid of $40+ lego sets just so I can have a couple of lego guys. Except the Prime figure of course, since I keep all the boxes and cards for my Skywarps.

And here I thought I was crazy. I would not be able to justify buying the sets just for the little guys and then get rid of the main building set.

That's why you're not getting Skywarp. You must embrace the reat of the set with equal love first.

It's a little crazy to me as well, despite the ungodly amounts of money that I spend on crap. It will likely be an instance when I wait for things to go on clearance or wait for loose Kreons to appear on eBay.
