I agree, any Transformer you have to take apart and put back together to change forms isn't a Transformer at all, they were like those human made Transformers in the Bayverse movies, at least if they had made sets of those ones then the transformations would be true, cause that's how the human made transformers changed.
You have no idea how thankful I was that my aunt gifted me a repeat big Starscream so that I could have both jet and robot modes without the hassle of the rebuilding process.

Kreo. The name sends shivers down my spine. My younger brother, a fool at the time, was about to mix the bins for Lego and non Lego. I could sense the impending doom as he dumped both containers into a horrid amalgam of bricks. The gravitational forces emitted from the resulting singularity had caused all bricks and small figures to drift into the dreaded pile. We are still recovering to this day.
I love Kre-O still own some old sets and new ones. Earlier this year I managed to get the Giant Optimus Prime set and I love him. Right now the ones in my room is the Big Kre-O Optimus, Superion combiner, Bruticus combiner, Golden Optimus, small Optimus, Small comic con exclusive small Optimus, and chibi Optimus riding chibi Grimlock, and a sea con. But that’s only some of the sets I own.

I had no idea that they made so many of these things. My son and I thought we had a ton of them, but obviously we were barely scratching the surface. We got them cheap when Target was going bankrupt.
It’s a shame as quickly as Kreo popped onto the scene they left while the tolerances of the parts should have been better the sets were fun and I won’t forget the memories of building some of my favorites like the Sentinel Prime set (and the minifigure breaking the same day I got it) and the Superion set
Thanks for indirectly encouraging me to dig up my old kre-o sets from a giant lego bin I have. I rebuilt the Grimstone combiner, albeit with some kreons missing (had to sacrifice some lego minifigures for the combine mode), and that Mirage and Optimus Prime two pack. Certainly brought back a lot of memories, as cheesy as that sounds.
Great video. After getting out of toy collecting all together, my son was just 5 when we attended BotCon 2011 together when Kre-O was introduced. It was a fun way for us to have Father/Son time together and collecting the sets was cool. When the Kreon mini figs came out I became obsessed with getting them all, even the exclusives. We did pretty good, even getting several sets not released in the U.S. (first 2 waves of warriors for instance, and much of the RiD 15 line only released in Canada). By the end, we had all the standard sets released and over 400 unique Kreon Mini figs. However there were prototypes (like warriors wave 3 & 4), and a few other exclusives I never got, but we had an awesome display for a while. Just this year though, my son turned 18 and had gone on to other interests, so he agreed we could sell our collection. It was fun while it lasted. I would hope that LEGO proper might re-introduce TF mini-figs at some point, but doubtful.
kre-o had such good ideas for the sets, a huge shame a few weren't able to be released but its cool that we got as much sets/figures as we did, I personally had the bank and construction site sets which i kinda ended up selling last year (minus 3 figures i still have and a couple left over parts lol) but i do really want to start a collection again, but specifically the kreons as they are pretty cool and imo are a lot better than what lego would do (i mean what other minifigures can transform like that) but also its a fun artstyle also thanks for including the pic i sent on twitter, i was not expecting to see that haha
So, when Hasbro runs out of ideas for G1, I guess they will have no choice but to start dressing up their characters as gangsters, ninja and cowboys. Who needs new characters anyway.
It’s almost ironic that Hasbro made their own LEGOs, only to ditch their LEGOs in favor of partnering with LEGOs for Transformers toys many years later. It’s like Hasbro gave up and realized that LEGO’s the chosen one.
10:46 I have a grimlock like that, it's in my collection to this day. It's sad I couldn't buy the others in the collection 11:53 i also have this west megatron, it's cool
For a couple of years, like 2015-17 I had an obsession with the transformers, my parents got me many different things and presents over the span of those years. I loved them, I spent countless hours with the small combiner sets and the larger transforming figures.
What's funny is, the missing member of superion, menasor and defensor all share the same missing member as combiner war initially release Bruticus also missed blast off, which is also somewhat accurate because we didn't get a shuttle blastoff from hasbro
Great video! Went in on the series hard. Biggest disappointment for me was they never came out with a 1986 yearbook set --would love to have had a Unicron, etc.
I love lego transformers alot. That why i got into kreo. Although there designs were hideous. The heads of the kreons was the major reason i loved them. I build my own lego g1 accurate possible and sometimes transformable transformers and the head were the pieces i needed since lego didn't do transformers. I wish they were still popular now.
I didn’t even know they continued for so long. I always thought they stopped around the time RiD came out as those were the only sets my local Toysrus stocked. Pity I’d have loved to have gotten some of those manga versions.
This video reminded me that i have a few of these guys. I'm messing around with them now, and while they're not the greatest, they are some fun little guys. I have 6 of them. Thrust, Seawing, Sharkticon, Beachcomber, Wildrider, and Alpha Trion.
4:12 I had that set!!! I loved it as a kid. The fact that you could get Optimus and megatron in one set is unheard of in today’s world, and I loved transformers so much at the time that I didn’t even care that they were knock-off Lego.
My favorite growing up was the Kreon Bruticus (Out of a combining 3 pack) and the Mirage and driver combo, I used to use both of the minifigs all the time. Had the Stealth Bumblebee set as well.
I got mirage back then. The mirage kreon had two left (or right I don't remember). It sat in my closet for years until I got rid of it at yard sale. I don't regret that decision.
2:31 I had a mirage and still use his pieces in car Mocs to this day, I also had a red transformer that I don’t remember (maybe prime?) that had a rlly useful bending 2x4 where the hinge was in the middle
4:26 At this point I just want to cry because I probably received this set when I was 10 years old and lost most of the details without knowing how much I will like them now. Currently my constructor looks just like a dump of dead lego figures without faces, hats, arms etc. and some random stuff which appeared out of nowhere.
I remember in the early 2010’s my local target put these sets in the Lego aisle so for the longest time I thought Lego already made Transformers sets and didn’t know why everyone was so hyped for the new Optimus Prime set
I have one partial figure left from when i was a kid. We were lego loyalist, so we lost most of the parts to the figure. No idea what character it was, but all we have now is the legs and waist, as well as the head. Oyr kid selves decided to give him a name: boogie. And now he is apart of our "family lore" lol
i remember getting some of the blind bags at my local Walgreens every time I went oh the nostalgia plus I remember the first ker-o set I got was the Sentinel prime brick build set when I was 5-6 years old I never finished building it sadly
Kre-O is a collaboration with Korean toy brand Oxford Toys, which also released some Kre-O exclusives only in Korea and Japan with the Family Mart convenience store. It is unfortunate, that Hasbro discontinued the brand.
Kre-o was cool when it lasted. I had like 1-2 sets. The biggest proboem I had was taking them apart to even transform and some characters were bigger then their rivals for some reason. I enjoyed how they can move around abit it was a great combination of mega blocks and lego I wish lego did something about minifigs. Then some also don't even transform. If you loose a piece you can transform either. Honestly mega blocks is still my favorite lego like brand because of the poses it can do. Especially now it can do better poses then actual do better then actual action figures and honestly that's kinda sad and its smaller and cheaper!
8 minutes in, and I had come to realize, there are a seriously insane amount of transformers characters. Like... Jesus Christ. And I thought sonic the hedgehog had a huge cast.
There is alot.....especially repeating chatacters or just plaine recolors. Megatron had 3 versions of himself. Megatronus(not the fallen or prime, he just took its name),megatron,and GALVATRON!(who later in IDW made him a different character entirely for some reason). Not to mention cyberverse gave SO MANY different versions of characters along with a certain now netflix owned game where different versions of characters fighting. The cast of oneself is almost as insane as marvel or dc but definitely bigger then how many bens thrre are in ben 10. Theres also combiners,evil clones,glass shatters(basically just reversed characters),bayformers,reconstructed,rebooted,etc. Every character of transformers may have at least 3 versions of themselves including a possible female or male varient from transitioning(either consentual or not). Its honestly insane that some random bot could have different versions that act like totally different characters. Especially Arcee and bumblebee.
@@gayema664 sheer insanity to it is just so perfect for transformers. I’m sure a lot of those recolors were just simply for toys but even then it just feels so right.

I realized that you missed a pack of 4+1 secret kreon pack. As far as I know there was a batch with Optimus, Sentinel, Megatron, Soundwave and secret Starscream and the second batch with Mirage, Bumblebee, Jazz, Red Alert and secret Skywarp. This was absolute banger if you were a kid with low budget and wanted the main cast of transformers.
@@zeroenjoyer2550 I've known about them, but they were also repacks, so I mixed that in when mentioning some of the unmentioned sets (like human kreons)
I partly enjoyed K-reo for its time in the 2010s but was shocked they were still making toys after 2014 as I thought that was the last year they made them. But it turns out it was 2016/17 not 2014.
A little fun fact, when kreo re-released their blindbags, they updated some of the prints and use the latest mold of the kre-ons (you can tell by the new hands, hole in the neck, and bar sized holes under the feet)
Man i wish they bring back this brand i remember when i was younger i wanted the figures so badly especially megatron but i only got the big built optimus prime n the smaller one with bumble bee
i really would like to collect as many as these as possible and create my own MTMTE/LL crew. and somehow make a lego ver of the ship. i really wish kreo did this offically
Kreo did some good I really appreciate the kreons aspect of the transformers. However the biggest issue with kreo in my eyes was that the sets didn’t transform which defeats the purpose of transformers. If you wanted to have a robot mode you would essentially have to break the set down and rebuild it again which was a pain. If you wanted both robot and vehicle you would essentially have to buy two of each set. I think if they had did what Lego had done with the Optimus prime and bumblebee where they actually transformed it would have done better
Battle changers was so damn good, I actually owned the single pack Optimus Prime, I wish they could've done Starscream, cuz the boys would've been complete, but damn I need that Soundwave.
I got the HQ on Super Clearance just for the Big Autobot Symbol, i used with Every Orange Lego i could find (sorry Milano) for a Sweet Autobot Shuttle!!
My Battleship, Star Trek, GI Joe/Cobra & TRANSFORMER KREOs are right in my Custom Lego Castle Greyskull, Snake Mountain, Cobra Temple of Darkness... Not the crappy builds, but the PERFECT Minifigs. Just those little ball joints are getting a little loose & some have broken.
Kre-o was partly the reason why I stopped being such a Lego loyalist. Lego wasn't getting stale yet, but their only other IP's were star wars, marvel and DC. Mega Construx and Ionix were also doing cool things
Cobi is why I started looking elsewhere. Also Mega

I partly enjoyed K-reo for its time in the 2010s but was shocked they were still making toys after 2014 as I thought that was the last year they made them. But it turns out it was 2016/17 not 2014.
A little fun fact, when kreo re-released their blindbags, they updated some of the prints and use the latest mold of the kre-ons (you can tell by the new hands, hole in the neck, and bar sized holes under the feet)
I had the starscream set back in 2013 and I promise you I do not remember it looking like that 💀
all the figures i'm intrested to get
ripclaw 5:57
big grimlock 10:03
transformable shockwave 12:03
(newest holy grail) underbite 12:41
its the only underbite that could scale with the rid figures
I had no idea this line went beyond year 2
Man i wish they bring back this brand i remember when i was younger i wanted the figures so badly especially megatron but i only got the big built optimus prime n the smaller one with bumble bee
Oh I used to have these, they're awesome
U remember I used to have an Optimus prime one when I was young and it was such a good time
I used the Large Optimus Prime head on the Hulk Buster, cus the HB head looks more like a Chest... Kinda like an Ironman Power Master!!
i really would like to collect as many as these as possible and create my own MTMTE/LL crew. and somehow make a lego ver of the ship. i really wish kreo did this offically
Kreo did some good I really appreciate the kreons aspect of the transformers. However the biggest issue with kreo in my eyes was that the sets didn’t transform which defeats the purpose of transformers. If you wanted to have a robot mode you would essentially have to break the set down and rebuild it again which was a pain. If you wanted both robot and vehicle you would essentially have to buy two of each set. I think if they had did what Lego had done with the Optimus prime and bumblebee where they actually transformed it would have done better
I still own the bumblebee and megaton sets
a kreon victory saber wouldve been so fire wtf
Battle changers was so damn good, I actually owned the single pack Optimus Prime, I wish they could've done Starscream, cuz the boys would've been complete, but damn I need that Soundwave.
I got the HQ on Super Clearance just for the Big Autobot Symbol, i used with Every Orange Lego i could find (sorry Milano) for a Sweet Autobot Shuttle!!
I owned some of these sets, I found the plastic to feel cheap and didn’t last like Lego does.
Also the quality wasn’t always good out of box
The mini figures look cool
Did you have to completely disassemble the sets in BTR?
I remember I had the lockdown and AOE prime weapon sets they were the best
My Battleship, Star Trek, GI Joe/Cobra & TRANSFORMER KREOs are right in my Custom Lego Castle Greyskull, Snake Mountain, Cobra Temple of Darkness... Not the crappy builds, but the PERFECT Minifigs. Just those little ball joints are getting a little loose & some have broken.
This makes me happy :)
These guys are so strange XD Some of them look awesome and some just look wweeeeiiirrrddd.
i still got almost all of them
Loved the Kreons
I will never understand how they failed to maximize the Kreon playability by designing a Kre-O Ark or Nemesis.
My first time seeing post 2014 sets
