'''Kre-O''' is [[Hasbro]]'s second foray into the world of brick-based construction toy sets, several years after the ignoble effort that was ''[[Built to Rule]]''.

Unveiled at [[Toy Fair 2011]], ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' was the first Hasbro brand to be released as Kre-O construction brick kits. The kits (generally) center around a ''Transformers'' character that can be taken apart and reassembled into a vehicle. Mini-figures called [[Kreon]]s are also included in the larger kits, and these mini-figures are a mix of ''Transformers'' characters and human drivers (mostly nameless generics). Prices range from $7.99 to $59.99, plus individually-bagged Kreon figures at $2.99.

The line launched in the US on [[June 6]]th, [[2011]]. Since then, ''Kre-O'' has expanded into a [[multi-property brand]], with sets based on other Hasbro franchises including ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'', ''Battleship'', and ''Dungeons & Dragons'', as well as the licensed properties ''[[Star Trek]]'' and ''Cityville Invasion''.

In [[2013]], [[TakaraTomy]] brought the line to [[Japan]], primarily the second-year ''Transformers'' sets.

Currently, the line is in a sort-of limbo in ''most'' of Hasbro's markets. The [[2015]] series mostly shipped only to [[Canada]] and Asian markets, with US releases relegated to closeout stores, and several items not being released at all. As of [[2016]], most "new" ''Kre-O'' product in the US was made up of mostly re-released and repackaged kits sold through discount chains like Dollar General, and some all-new kits based on the [[DreamWorks]] ''Trolls'' movie. In [[China]], the line continues under the ''Armor Hero Captor'' brand, a live-action ''tokusatsu'' TV series similar to the ''Kamen Rider'' series.

It's not that thing that begins with an L! But it sure works with that thing that begins with an L. L employees are asked to please not view this webpage.

==Building sets==
===2011===
The first series saw widespread brick-and-mortar distribution in the US. The main focus of the sets were large robot/vehicle builds with a ''lot'' of parts. Really a lot. Limbs were many times thick masses of panel-parts laid over each other, and many sets had extremely limited posability, with simple swivel elbows & knees. Robot designs were varying degrees of [[live-action film series]]/[[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] mashups.

The robot Kreons? ''VERY'' G1-inspired. And regrettably, with a fair number of tolerance issues.

===2012 (''Quest for Energon'')===
The second-year ''Kre-O Transformers'' sets mark a definite change in style. Dubbed "Quest for Energon", each set contains several "energon" pieces; at least one [[Skeletron|clear-plastic Kreon torso]] (blue for Autobots, purple for Decepticons), and several clear-purple "[[Dark Energon]]" parts to assemble a giant "[[ultimate Dark Energon weapon]]". The robot/vehicle builds in this year's sets are generally smaller, simpler, and less reliant on the "massive stack of flat plates" construction style common in the first year, relying a lot more on large ball-and-socket-jointed bricks to build limbs and bodies around.

There was a heavier focus on the Kreons overall, with mini-playsets, mini-vehicles and a pair of [[army-building|army builder]] sets. The robot Kreons are more often based on their [[Aligned continuity family]] incarnations than Generation 1. Human Kreons had new arm-pieces with rounded-off shoulders, rather than the blocky shoulders of all first-year Kreons.

This series also suffered a distribution issue in the US. [[Walmart]] stopped carrying ''Kre-O'' after its first year (with one tiny exception), and only [[Toys"R"Us|ToysЯUs]] appeared to carry the entire second-year assortment; the "Rotor Rage" and "Destruction Site Devastator" sets in particular didn't seem to show up at certain retailers.

Most of these sets were also made available in Japan as part of the initial ''Kre-O'' roll-out by [[TakaraTomy]].

===2013 (''Beast Hunters'')===
Bringing the series in-line with the then-current ''[[Beast Hunters (toyline)|Beast Hunters]]'' branding of ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]'', the focus of this years' sets were buildable beasts. Every kit came with one, though one set had a ''huge'' buildable beast with an alternate robot build. None of the other beasts have official robot builds, but hey, try making your own! Interestingly, the human Kreons were based on specific ''Transformers'' human characters from prior series rather than the prior two years' nameless generics... much to the bafflement of the [[fandom]], who wanted them to be doing that from the get-go.

This series was even ''more'' limited in its US distribution, seemingly available only at ToysЯUs and Meijer, though some sets eventually filtered out into discount stores.

===2014 (''Age of Extinction'')===
Tying in with that [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|big new movie in 2014]], the 2014 ''Kre-O'' line-up features dinosaurs aplenty. Many sets also feature "Dino Force Technology", which are pieces that include magnets in them so claws and dino-maws can snatch up Kreons wearing ferrous-metal backpacks or helmets. Each set also comes with a red 2x4 Kre-O brick.

Notably, this line also marks the complete abandonment of the 'rebuild to transform' [[play pattern]], in favor of the playset approach more typical of construction brick toys. As part of this change, human Kreons now use the small body style that debuted in the ''Kre-O {{w|CityVille}} Invasion'' line, to indicate a [[scale]] difference between them and the normal-sized Transformer Kreons.

By this point, ''Kre-O'' in its entirety became officially a [[Toys"R"Us|ToysЯUs]] [[exclusive]] toyline.

===2015 (''Robots In Disguise''/Generation 1)===
2015's ''Kro-O'' product was largely split between sets based on the new [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|''Robots in Disguise'' series]], and Kreon-focused Generation 1-based product. Unfortunately, this is also the year that ''Kre-O'' all but vanished from US store shelves, relegated to Canada and Hasbro Asia markets. Even ToysЯUs dropped the line, and it wasn't until the latter half of the year when various sets began to filter into the US through discount chains like TJ Maxx and Marshalls, though some older sets got a second life through "dollar" stores (see below).

This was accompanied by a change in Kreon construction, including new hands designed with a raised "upper" part so they can act as pegs (aka "just like mini-figures from that L-company"), and a new inner post in the torso that slides into the waistpiece's now-hollow spine-post, allowing for a sturdier grip, needed for the much larger Kreon builds of most of the Generation-1-based sets. The 2x4 logo blocks were also dropped, replaced by a 3x4 flat plate with an unpainted Kre-O logo, but included only in the blindbagged toys.

;''Robots in Disguise''
:This series is based heavily on "vehicle" play, with non-transforming rigs loosely based on their pilots' alternate modes, though each one does have some sort of "action feature".

;Battle Changers
:After four years, the line ''finally'' releases buildable Transformers figures that transform "traditionally" rather than needing to be taken apart and rebuilt. How successful they are at this... varies. The figures are mostly based on their "Generation 1" forms, with some concessions to more modern media.

:Replacing Micro-Changers (see below) as the ''Kre-O'' line's blind-bagged assortment, Kreon Warriors features popular characters reimagined as historical warriors. Unlike their predecessors, the Kreon Warriors do not have vehicle modes. Their G1-y-ness is variable, with some versions owing a bit more to their ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)| Prime]]'' or [[Live-action film series|live-action film series]] iterations in the facial feature department.

:This series has no identifying markings on their bags to tell buyers exactly what's inside. On top of that, these never saw release in the US, coming out in Canada and various Asian markets.

;Kreon Mini-Con Combiners
:One of the more bizarre items in the line, these sets come with one standard Kreon and four ''Cityville'' mini Kreons of the same character, each one a different incarnation from various franchises. With some extra parts, the mini-Kreons become limbs to make a larger combiner-bot.

===2015~2017 ("Budget store" releases)===
Starting in mid-2015, numerous ''Kre-O Transformers'' sets were repackaged (sometimes combining multiple smaller sets) in a new red-box style, sold only at Dollar General stores in the US, for considerably lower than the original sets went for. Curiously, the packaging and instructions omit any reference to the large robot builds... yet the extra parts for the robot builds are still in the box, and the "robot only" parts are still in the parts checklist in the back. ''Why'' they did this is a mystery. These sets continued to come out in following years, and were joined by choice repackagings of ''Cityville Invasion'', ''Dungeons & Dragons'', and eventually ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' sets, shipped all together (but we won't list those because of The Reason).

Meanwhile, five '''Brick Box''' sets saw wider release at Dollar General, Family Dollar, Big Lots and Ollies stores. These $5 cubes come with two bags of bricks and at least one Kreon. The first two sets released are simple repackagings of prior smaller kits. While these releases come with all of the Kreons and parts of the original releases, there are no instructions, apparently an attempt to pass the set off as a "build what you want" deal. Three more sets were released later, only with a single all-new 2015-style Kreon and two bags of parts per box. The larger bags of parts all come from previous older sets. The second bag in each is a seemingly random collection of parts in the same color palette as the other bag. And no instructions. Weird!

In addition to all this, Collections 1 through 3 of the blind-bagged [[Micro-Changer]]s were re-released, at first primarily through Dollar General, but by 2017 expanding into Walgreens as well. These are ''new'' versions of the toys, re-made with 2015-style Kreon bodies, altered tampographs, some plastic color changes, a handful of parts changes... and no individual-identifying codes on the bags, so hope you're good at the "feel through the bag" method. (See below for links to the individual Micro-Changers in those assortments.) Bizarrely, in addition to keeping the flak jackets for the collection 1 re-release, the pack previews show the new tampographs *on* the flack jackets, a change that apparently did not make it through to production.
{{-}}

==Micro-Changers==
Introduced in 2012, the [[Micro-Changer]]s sub-line adds a new element to Kreon figures; extra parts allow each figure to "transform" into a vehicle or beast (or whatever).

{{note|For more extensive information on this series, see '''[[Micro-Changer]]'''.}}

===Blind-bagged figures===
This portion of the line features individual [[blindpacking|blind-packaged]] Kreons. During the initial run, code numbers printed on each bag allowed you to know which figure is inside... or at least avoid buying two of the same by accident. For all Collections, only the last two numbers are important for identification, so those are the only ones we're showing. The final assortment and the re-releases of prior sets lack ID numbers, so good luck feeling out parts through the bag!

Collections 1 through 3 have been re-made with the 2015-style Kreon bodies and re-released through Dollar General and Walgreens stores in the US.

===Micro-Changers Combiners===
Four Kreons per pack combine into one larger robot. Each set also comes with a single red stand-block, and extra limb pieces. Just in case. As most of the original teams these sets are based on have five or six members, the "lost" members saw release through the blind-bagged series.

==Custom Kreons==
First released at the back-end of 2013, the individually-carded [[Custom Kreon]]s include a number of extra body parts and accessories, many [[vacuum metallizing|chromed]] or translucent. They also come with a customizable "rack" to store their unused parts. Returning characters typically have altered and more extensive [[tampograph]]s across most of their opaque parts.

*Kre-O bricks were manufactured by Korean toy company [http://www.oxfordtoy.co.kr/ Oxford],<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/415032-transformers-kre-o-thoughts-19.html#post6288246 Transformers Kre-O - Thoughts? on TFW2005]</ref>, who had been making not-L sets for a while, up through 2014. However, it is very much a lot of new part design work, especially the far more involved construction of the [[Kreon]]s; Oxford's pre-''Kre-O'' mini-figures were basically straight-up L Minifigure construction. The 2015 ''Kre-O'' product seems to have been produced by Hasbro proper, which would explain a lot of the changes to the product for that year, including the almost completely altered Kreons.
*Kreon [[Hound (Kre-O)|Hound]] was among the upcoming items revealed at [[BotCon 2011]]... and was only announced to be released in late 2013, and wasn't released until midway through 2014. Amusingly, his helmet has become one of the most ubiquitous among the Kreons thanks to its very generic styling.
*Small images of a ''Kre-O Transformers'' set featuring a big mechanical scorpion and another set featuring a buildable [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] were shown at [[Toy Fair 2012]] during the slide presentation, as part of the demonstration of the "build a big energon weapon from parts of the different sets" concept. Neither were present in the showroom or mentioned in the press materials. This same slide was shown during a presentation at [[BotCon 2012]], again with no explicit mention of the mechanical scorpion or Soundwave.
*While the Kre-O bricks and such are compatible with L bricks, take care with mixing Kreon and Minifigure parts, particularly helmets. Full-coverage Kreon helmets like Optimus Prime's and Soundwave's are a bit tight, and getting a L Minifigure head out of them is exceedingly difficult. They'll pop off the neck before the helmet relinquishes the head. Open-face helmets like Starscream's, where you can get a "grip" on the head with the pad of your finger, should be fine. Just be a bit careful you don't scrape face-paint off.
*The L company has since released sets that are explicitly marketed as being able to assemble as robots and various vehicles and aircraft, very similar to the ''Transformers'' Kre-O concept.
*Several ''Kre-O'' bricks are reuses of Hasbro's long defunct ''Built to Rule'' interlocking brick system. Most Kre-O bricks, that is parts not designed specifically for Kreons, with detailed moulded surfaces (especially where the L counterpart has a smooth surface) are Built to Rule parts.

Transformers: Crossovers

2018-06-19T00:54:35Z

Howtorobabank:

{{disambig2|the real-world franchise|the in-universe religious ceremony|Crossover}}
[[File:Crossovers Logo.png|center|425px]]
'''''Transformers: Crossovers''''' was a [[franchise]] that ran from 2008 to 2011. The line was intended to incorporate properties originating outside of the ''Transformers'' brand and had [[Marvel Comics]] and ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' properties making up its products. It was considered to be a continuation and rebranding of the prior ''[[Star Wars Transformers]]'' toyline, expanding its scope to include Marvel toys. By late 2011, the Marvel portion of the line was phased out and the ''Crossovers'' banner was dropped, marking the return of ''Star Wars Transformers''.

All ''Crossovers'' toys are the same [[size class]], more or less the same as the "Deluxes" of the main ''Transformers'' lines. Though it featured many toys repackaged from ''Star Wars Transformers'', the line dropped the small pilot figures included with the original releases.
