Toy Fair 2012 : KRE-O Battleship & Transformers

Last year Hasbro got into the construction brick game with Transformers kits, giving you your favorite giant robot characters with directions to built your pieces into both vehicle and bot modes and their version of mini-figures which were, as expected, adorable. If the catalog at UK Toy Fair was any indication, the sets didn't quite catch fire, as most of the listings are for things we've seen on discount at retailers. There were some new items though..


KRE-O Transformers

Decepticon Ambush : Kids can play out cool Transformers battles with this KREON 4-pack. This set includes 4 Transformers KREONs, accessories, and bricks to build a cool setting for the battle.

Cycle Chase : Same text as above. Whom ever wrote this really didn't give it their all, did they?

Also new is a KRE-O Transformers Decepticon Helicopter set with 3 KREONs and a little buggy for the humans.










We had hoped Hasbro would extend their lines to include G.I. Joe, but if Transformers underperformed, that might be a plan in limbo. Instead, Hasbro chooses to test the waters with another property involving military battle against an alien force. BATTLESHIP!

The KRE-O Battleship line includes...









KRE-O Battleship Scuba : Start your KRE-O Battleship collection with this great entry level value set! Includes 2 KREONs with accessories and basic vehicle.
