And I thought I was addicted to Lego Minifigures! These look incredible! I wonder if several of these figures will be in the blind bags like the Transformers Kreons? If so, does anyone know if there is a decoder for Kreons like Lego Minifigures or the K'Nex Super Mario figures?

Will be sold in Blind Bags.

Holy crap.......it looks like Quick-Kick comes with a "Frozen Fudgy Bar" ........awesome. I will be getting as many of the figures that I can.......the playsets I'm "meh" about but the mini-figures are too cute to pass up.

[RecklessEndangerment]

I like these a lot more than I thought I would. I'll probably pick up a few sets. Glad they went with classic rah instead of movie designs.

[The Thing]

Check Point Alpha & Quick Kick-Rock N Roll-Torpedo-Cobra Soldier-Alley Viper are definite "must haves".

[RobbieDigital]

I want all of the figures........

[RecklessEndangerment]

So was there any word on when to expect these?

 

 

edit- Nevermind. Just looked at the other thread.

[CaptainTriumph]

They look good but good luck troop building them!

[Pharmacoviper]

These look cool, but I kinda wished they made GI Joe minimates instead.

The vehicles and playsets actually looked very cool. Like the Battle Platform one and the mini FANG and Trouble Bubble. I have never really been into LEGO type toys but these have peaked my personal interest.

Very cool IMO

I definitely plan on buying these, both the blind-bags and the vehicle sets. Kre-O isn't quite Lego quality yet, but it's a lot of fun. If the figure blind bags are like the TF early release blind bag sets, there should be identification numbers on the bags so you know which one you're getting. They aren't true blind bags like the Lego collectible minifigures, at least the ones I have aren't.

I almost, ALMOST, bought the Battleship Kreo set that had the fighter jet resembling the Skystriker. That's how badly I'm salivating over these.

 

What is most comforting is that the most expensive set is only $40. The prices on these are very reasonable.

 

I looked at the prices of the Battleship sets to get an idea of the prices on these. Here are my predictions:

 

Checkpoint Alpha: $10

Ninja Dojo: $13

Serpent Armor Strike: $18

Dragonfly: $15

Thunderwave: $21

Armored Assault: $26

Battle Platform: $40

 

These are only comparative guesses based on Wal-Marts prices on Battleship Kreo.

[TimToyGeek]

I imagine that if the initial wave of GI Joe Kre-O does well, we may see some larger sets, kind of like the Transformers Kre-O is doing a larger Devastator set now.

 

That means we could easily see larger vehicles - Rolling Thunder, MCC, maybe even...dare I say...a USS Flagg set somewhere down the line? Certainly I could see them doing a Pit and a Terror Drome set pretty easily. You could easily repurpose some of the more recent Lego sets from the Agents years to fit in with it.

 

Plus, and I don't think I've seen them yet, Kre-O Dreadnoks. I would definitely enjoy Lego-scale Dreadnoks to wreak havoc on all of my other Lego and Kre-O sets.

A Rolling Thunder would be pretty cool.
