C'mon Hasbro...

Ahahahahahahahaha!!! Lego Star Wars has a headstart of almost 15 years. Lego Star Wars isn't "taking" anything by Kreo Star Trek's introduction onto the market.

Oooh, pretty.

But I'd agree I'd like to see some stuff from TOS or TNG soon. I like the reboot, but I'm still an old-school fan at heart.

Everything looks great. That said, the mini ships, five of the series one Kreons, Teleporter set, and the Bird of Prey are the only one's I know I'm going to be getting. The Shuttlecraft and air-lock set's are maybes. The Enterprise looks great, but I can't say that I'll get him. I might though...

I'm still disappointed at the lack of any action figure or role-play stuff. Both of which were even mentioned in the press-release of Hasbro taking over the licensing from Playmates.

As for TOS and TNG Kre-O stuff, series two and three of the Kreon's are apparently mostly made-up of TOS and TNG era characters. Not much in the grand scheme of things, but it's a start...

I think Hasbro is taking a very cautious wait and see approach after seeing the profitable Star Wars brand basically bomb at retail last year.

For Kreo Joes they went full-on original ARAH designs for the most part... in fact even though a new Joe movie almost opened up at the same time they pretty much ignored it in the Kreo universe... that was the best decision they ever made IMO. Looks like they are doing the opposite with Kreo Star Trek.

Glad to finally get a better look at the sets that aren't the enterprise.

The Bird of Prey looks like a really fun set.... I'm not particularly fond of the design as a make-over of the BoP, but I'll hold off jufgement on THAT until we actually get to see the real ship. But it doesn't make the set any less neat looking.

Only real complaint I have as of yet, is the same as before. I really don't like the Enterprise being forced into being a playset. Much better would it have been had it been a stand alone ship that could be reconstructed into a playset, ALA Transformer's sets.

I still think that Kreo could easily follow Lego's Star Wars lead, in having the kids sets, and having sets that are a bit more geared to collectors and adults. And online would be a great way for them to market the latter.
