G.I. Kre-O, Kre-O, MegaBloks CoD and LEGO discussions

[pcsguy88]

I told you guys they were by the Joes at TRU.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

...I know there is a collector that works there as my brother got his Masterpiece Soundwave from that store and the guy that rang him up was like, "DUDE, YOU KNOW THESE ARE SELLING FOR $300 ON EBAY".

He sounds more like a scalper to me...

I told you guys they were by the Joes at TRU.

I checked there first...nothing...looked by kre-os...nothing...BUT the other Joe sets were in the kre-o section (by lego)...

At the TRU near me, there is a Joe KREO end cap on a small aisle in the building block area...there is a spot for the KREO marked, but always empty...

 

[The Ewokhunter]

so i finally got my 2 joe kreos in the mail from TRU and they were both Major Bludd. pissed me off that I get 2 of the same damn figure.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

I'm sure you can find someone to trade with...but yeah, that is a bummer...

 

[The Ewokhunter]

if they were Eels or Bats it wouldn't be a problem

 

[nacho]

Since when did tru.com have series 2? I've been looking every day for a month and haven't seen jack.

 

[YT1]

It's crazy how the figures sell out instantly and the vehicles sets just sit there gathering dust. Feel like they are missing a huge opportunity here.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

When are they not...tools

 

[nacho]

No really, anyone got a link to the series two guys?!

they had them briefly. i tried to order 24 (full case) but cut the order down to 2.

I think it is the same one for series one...many on HT are ordering 24 at a crack and getting full sets. The TRU near me actually got some in and I was able to finish what I want for wave 2...

I already helped Eddie and picked up a BAT for him...if anyone needs help let me know and I will keep checking.

I'd still like a single BAT, if anyone is able to find an extra.

I'll keep an eye out for one.

 

[The Ewokhunter]

I want a couple Eels mainly. I know the Bats are gonna be tough. I still need 1 of everybody else, sans Major Bludd.

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

I've heard of people army building Major Bludd...well, just one guy, but it's supposedly a thing

 

[fogger1138]

I'll keep an eye out for one.

Thanks!

 

[Slaymaker]

Army building Bludd, eh? I have 2 Eels and 2 BATs and 2 Flash (to make Grand Slam maybe) 1 of everything else...Wave 1 I have a 3 AVs, 4 CGs and 2 Cobra troopers...

Oh yea, some extra RnR and AT leaders in case I make OG 13 customs...Snowjob in wave 2 is pretty cool too - just not sure I want to customize KREO...at this time I am just going to collect for nostalgia and keep customizing 1:18th.

Nahhh...I was just making fun of 'wok \/

So they just didn't change the picture? If I ordered those expecting to get S2, I'd end up with a dozen S1 AT Commanders!

Seriously, it's the same online item, and they're just sending out S2 now?

That is what I understand...I found them online.

TRU has done this in the past...I got 2 Renegades SS during a BOGO sale when I ordered the SS - but pic was from Wave 1 PoC.

 

[nacho]

Well damn. I saw the original S1 listing in-stock several times in the last month, but I didn't need any more of that assortment. I wish I'd known... hopefully when they come back in stock they'll have a better limit than 2.

 

[Slaymaker]

Not sure if this is real or not...but pretty cool sets if they are customs

It was me!

the last video shows all the sets...but I cannot figure out how to "embed" - seriously cool stuff.

Actually kind of interested in these.

 

[The Ewokhunter]

Saw the boat and drone attack at tru. Very close to halo mega blok stuff. The vehicles look more like toys than actual building block shape

 

[Keenan]

Sucks this can't be 1:18th.

 

[K-Tiger]

Man, that AH-6 is ace.


The inflatable boat looks like it might be NLC-sized.

 

[Monkeywrench]

Sucks this can't be 1:18th.

This^^

 

[MMorelock66]

This^^

I second that..... or third it.

 

[Slaymaker]

I posted about these in the KREO thread the other day

http://forums.fighting118th.com/showpost.php?p=219508&postcount=265

I already have the RIB...there is over 20 pieces to build one figure...articulation better than vintage joes - bicep swivel, wrist spin, hips, knees, waist, head. The weapons are modular...

The megabloks page says zombies are coming...for those of you who like that sort of thing...

I can take pics if you are interested...

 

[The Ewokhunter]

I would have bought any of the other sets, but the boat and drone thing look meh.

I'd appreciate it if you did. Thanks!

 

[Dr Syn]

Oh shit, I'm rather liking these and I don't even play Call of Duty.

 

[Joerhyno]

Same here, I love the Halobloks, my son has a ton of them, his way of being able to play Halo, lol... "Daddy's game", but even still, those figures, for block figures blow everything else out there, out of the water.

 

[pcsguy88]

1:18 Halo with the vehicle lineup they have access to is a damn gold mine and a wasted opportunity. The missed opportunity on the Peter Jackson movie is even worse. Halo is simply the best space based universe since Star Wars with infinite depth and story lines. Master Chief ain't shit compared to Noble Team and ODST.

 

[TheVP]

Very cool!
