Ignore this if already posted.
Entertainment Earth has listing for the new Kre-o Sets like Devastor, etc. But there are 2 listing for the Kreon Micro Changers. They are blindbagged assortments, one has 32 and the other has 8. The description says that there are 12 figures in the first series. Here's a snippet. "Battle for the future of Earth and Cybertron with the Kre-o Transformers Minifigures! There are 12 different blind-bagged minifigures in this first series… which ones will you get? Characters in this assortment include weapons and spare parts to change into a vehicle mode, and may include Waspinator, Sunstorm, Spinster, Galvatron, Crankstart, Scorponok, and others. It's a fun surprise in every box with the Kreon Micro Changers! NOTE: Figure selection is random. Figures are in blind packaging. We cannot accept requests for specific characters, nor can we accept returns on opened figures. You may receive duplicate figures."

WoW. And Bravo. Crazy choices are what blindbagged minifigures should always be about. Awesome. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif) Given that Con line up I'm hoping for some out there Heroes too. -ZacWilliam, Blaster or Fort Max, sure, but give me Scrounge and Swoop, and Swerve, and RUNG! -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

Will be interested to see if this ends up as BW Waspinator or if it could possibly be a Green-Bumblebee repaint inspired by Animated. -ZacWilliam, it's cool either way and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw either way tonight or tomarrow at Comicon. So we'll know it all soon... -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

I love blind bags. As long as the figures are cheep (and these are) it adds a lot of fun to the chase. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif) -ZacWilliam, the mystery of what your gonna get is part of the fun. -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

Even if they're blind bags and you end up with doubles etc, you can just mix and match them and create new guys to your hearts content.

Me, I like actually knowing what I'm going to buy before I buy it. Call me crazy but getting 50 Scorponoks while I'm trying to get just *one* Spinister doesn't sound even remotely fun to me.

If you don't find that fun you might be taking these goofy little guys a bit too seriously, or these just might not be for you. But that aside... 3) a.) You know there are frequently packaging codes on these type of figures that can tell you which figure it is if you want to cherry pick. b.) Even if there aren't on these it's usually very easy to feel the bags and find unique pieces that tell you what the figure it is. Maybe not 100% of the time, but you can increase your odds alot. -ZacWilliam - runs about 60%-70% on feeling Lego blind bags, but my wife is a lot better and gets it right about 95% of the time. -------------------- Ever wonder about the speed of Turbofoxes?

Yeah I imagine you'll be able to tell what some of the figures are by feeling the bags (like say Sunstorm for example).

Well, that explains that Sunstorm Kreon in the BotCon Kre-O cityscape display!

I hope this means a tonne of new moulding for these guys. It'd be kinda horrible if they had to make Scorponok or Waspinator out of existing Kre-O parts like the other second year Kreons we've seen.
