Kre-O Transformers

The Kre-O Transformers comic was first released on TakaraTomy's Kre-O website in August 2013.

The comics follow the adventures of the Kreons as they journey to Earth and continue their tiny war on that planet. The whole thing is a silly, tongue-firmly-in-cheek affair focused on gags. The author/writer appears to be a rotating position, with Hayato Sakamoto making the initial chapters and the current creator being Makoto Wakabayashi.

Kre-O Transformers chapters:
Hayato Sakamoto
Makoto Wakabayashi

Notes

  • Despite the first year of Kre-O sets not being sold in Japan (at least, not through TakaraTomy), a lot of the Kreons from that year make cameos.
  • Similarly, Optimus Prime, Megatron and Bumblebee all swap between their Generation 1 and Prime-styled Kreons, with the latter being used mainly (but not always) when the story features a larger brick-bot from the actual sold-in-Japan sets.
  • Throughout the series, many, many Kreons, all of them inspired by past Transformers characters from a broad mix of franchises, pop up who do not exist as toys. While the human Kreons would all require new hair/hat molds, all of the Transformers stick with parts that actually exist, though many times extensively "painted" to further get the visual similarity across.
  • These cameos also show artist/writer Hayato Sakamoto's penchant not just for the obscure, but for stuff outside of TakaraTomy's sphere of influence, including cameos from characters based on their IDW designs and Fun Publications toy releases.
