	'''Hardshell''' likes playing with people as if they were toys. (Hmmm.) He absolutely ''loves'' it when he can make someone break down, either mentally or just into a pile of blocks. Naturally, this doesn't make him terribly popular at parties.

	*'''Hardshell''' (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2013)
	**''Collection'': '''2'''
	''Bag number'': '''*** 67'''
	**''Accessories'': Logo brick, large rifle

	:As part of the second Collection of [[blindpacking\|blindpacked]] [[Micro-Changer]]s, Hardshell is a Kreon that can be rebuilt from robot mode into a rhinoceros beetle of some sort. He uses the [[Megatron (Kre-O)\|Megatron]] style helmet.

	: This Collection was still in circulation at "dollar" stores and drug stores up through 2015. They eventually lost the individual-identifying bag codes, but other changes were hidden inside the bag. The 2015 releases replaced the 2x4 logo stand-brick with a new 3x4 logo plate. The Kreon was also given the slight [[retool]]ing to the arm seen in the 2014 Kreons, making the "cuff" parts more sharp-cornered and better adapted to being used as studs. Some of the add-on pieces may also be slightly off-color, possibly due to a change in factories in mid-production.

	:In 2016, Collection 2 was re-released in a whole new production run for Dollar General stores in the US as part of a large collection of re-released ''Kre-O'' sets. But where most of these releases are nigh-identical to the originals, the re-released Micro-Changer blind-bags use the almost-entirely-retooled 2015 Kreon, with slightly-differently-hued plastics than the originals. (It is possible for some of the add-on pieces to be in the older hues.) Hardshell's [[tampograph]]s are almost totally unchanged, basically his Decepticon symbol now has a white outline and that's it.

	~~:Sadly, this release has no individual-identification code on the bag, requiring you to use the feel-through-the-bag method or just buy blind and hope.~~

	~~==Notes==~~
	* Though the [[instructions]] say to make sure the side of the torso with the [[tampograph]] is facing downward, if you keep it pointing skyward, this much more accurately replicates [[Bombshell (G1)~~#Toys\|the original toy Hardshell is based on]]... plus makes the arms stick out a bit more away from the stand-legs due to the way they bend.~~
	* The ''[[Transformers: Kre-O Character Encyclopedia]]'' calls him "Bombshell".
