| *'''Hoist''' (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2013)
| |
| **''Collection'': '''2'''
| |
| **''Bag number'': '''***** 76'''
| |
| **''Accessories'': Long blaster
| |
| | |
| : As part of the second wave of [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] [[Micro-Changer]]s, Hoist is a Kreon patterned after [[The Transformers (franchise)|Generation 1]] [[Hoist (G1)|Hoist]]. He can be rebuilt into a tow truck.
| |
| | |
| : 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.

| * '''Machine Wars''' (Kreon Souvenir Figure Set, 2013)
| |
| **''Accessories'': Large rifle
| |
| | |
| : This version of Hoist is based on the [[BotCon 2013]] [[Hoist (G1)#Timelines|version of Hoist]], which is in turn based on ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[Hoist (G1)#MachineWars|Hoist]].
| |
| | |
| : The ''Machine Wars'' five-pack was exclusive to BotCon 2013, and includes Kreons of Hoist, [[Megaplex#Kre-O|Megaplex]], [[Obsidian (Kre-O Kreon)|Obsidian]], [[Skywarp (Kre-O)#BotCon2013|Skywarp]], and [[Strika (Kre-O)|Strika]].

| *'''Kreon Class of 1985''' (Kreon figure set, 2015)
| |
| **''Accessories'': Double-blaster
| |
| | |
| :Voted "Most Helpful" by the [[Kreon Class of '85]], this version of Hoist's deco is much more heavily based on the [[Hoist (G1)#Toys|original Hoist toy]], plus gives him a wrist-blaster. Like the rest of the set, he uses the almost-totally-[[retool]]ed 2015 style of Kreon body.
| |
| | |
| :This box set of thirty Kreons was a [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2015 [[exclusive]], with leftovers being sold on [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online after the show.

| * '''Hoist''' (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2016)
| |
| **''Collection'': '''2'''
| |
| **''Accessories'': Logo plate, large rifle
| |
| | |
| :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.) His "hook" piece is also changed from the original version. Hoist's [[tampograph]]s got a slight change, replacing the flat gray with black, changing his black Autobot symbol to red with a white outline, and changing his upper leg deco to yellow.
| |
| | |
| :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.
