• Acid Wing (Kreon Micro-Changer, 2013)
  • Collection: 2
  • Bag number: ***** 70
  • Accessories: Logo brick (2013), logo plate (2016 only), 2 clip-on rifles

As part of the second wave of blindpacked Micro-Changers, Acid Wing is a Kreon mini-figure with parts to rebuild him into a bright green jet. He shares the same parts and construction as the preview wave's Sunstorm, though his instructions do not have you use the extra jet-mode bricks to assemble a funky two-handed double blaster for his robot mode like you do with Sunstorm. You can anyway, though. We're not here to tell you how to play with your imagination-expanding building-brick-based figures.

Collection 2 was re-released for several years through outlets like Family Dollar and drug stores. These later releases lack bag codes, and by 2015 had replaced the 2x4 logo brick with the new 2015 3x4 logo-plate. The actual Kreons inside the bag were unchanged, however.

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.) Acid Wing's torso tampograph underwent a slight color change, replacing the dark gray with solid black, though the leg tampos remain dark gray.

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

• Despite the name difference (possibly a case of lost trademark), he is based on Generation 1 Acid Storm.
• Acid Wing's instruction sheet parses his name as a single word, "Acidwing". We're going with what's on the bag-back, the two-word version.
