Topic: Kre-O

On the one hand, boo, LEGO or bust!  On the other hand: *drool*

I suppose for those who complain about the costlier LEGO product, this is another alternative for you to consider or complain about.

Side note: received a pm from the old Brickfilms.com forum from someone in HASBRO looking to promote KRE-O with a stop-motion contest.  The pm was canceled, don't know why, but the email notification had the full message.

Hi there,

My name is Jovan Hsu and I'm an Associate Marketing Manager on the KRE-O
team at Hasbro.

I'm contacting you because we are interested in running a stop motion brick
film contest in the Fall of 2012 and we noticed that your site has fostered
a large and active community of brickfilm devotees. As your community
members are already creating brick films, we thought it might be beneficial
for us to work with you and your site in order to get the word out about
the contest.

If this opportunity is one in which you think your community would be
interested in, please send me an email at [email censored] so that we
can continue the conversation. Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from
you.

Regards,
Jovan

Hmm I would enter. But I'm a loyal LEGO buyer so I wouldn't buy it.

So yeah, I'm back from my mind.

FBTB did a somewhat informative writeup on the line that's worth checking out. I'd be interested to find out more about the contest proposal.

LEGO FOREVER!!! >:D

I'm sure I won't be getting any of these. xD
I find that's it's best to stick with one type of brick company, or else the different styles clash. And I find the knock offs disgusting.

Sorry Hasbro, there's just no alternative to the Danish bricks.

Re: Kre-O

Hasbro, I love Transformers. Been a fan since as long as I can remember. And although I may check these out anyways...

There is no replacing LEGO, and that's that. So if you want to talk devoted COLLECTING...

Talk to LEGO about a license. Then you'll have LEGO and Transformers fans alike, myself included, JUMPING on the opportunity.

P.S. TO THE NUIMOBILE!!

Re: Kre-O

Hasbro will never license Transformers to LEGO. Never. NEVER.
Why? Because they're competitors, and fierce ones at that. That's why Hasbro first tried this game with their Built-To-Rule toys and now with KRE-O.

Re: Kre-O

Well... Never knew that. Guess it's true: you DO learn something new everyday.

Which actually stinks to... 'Cause Hasbro couldn't DREAM of competing with LEGO in that game. Maybe as just general toys (action figures vs. construction sets), but never construction set vs. construction set. Hasbro, we appreciate the sentiment, but you are no LEGO and never will be. Stick to what you're good at, 'kay?

Not that your reading this, but still.

P.S. TO THE NUIMOBILE!!

Re: Kre-O

Well those are pretty cool, provided they are a good price and are Lego-compatible. Legos are expensive because we are (apparently) paying for quality but I am not sure if Hasbro gets the same level of trust from me. At least it's better than Megabloks...

Re: Kre-O

bump...

I was just thinking, and this is probably the elaphant in the room, but since Kreo is run by Hasbro, this may be our chance to get My Little Pony building sets!! I tried contacting them through youtube with the idea but I'm sure there's a better way, and if enough people ask for it the dream may become a reality! That's probably the only way I would buy their stuff though

Highly unlikely... But that would be epic! mini/bigsmile

I would enter IF and only IF they gave me those Kre-O toys for free or for a very symbolic fee (like 10$-15$) because there is no way in the world I'm paying for that stuff. U want free advertisements on youtube? Then give them to me for free! mini/tongue

Re: Kre-O

Of course I could, but judging that Lego doesn't have the license and Hasbro probably wont want to give it to them, even if i did get the 10000 votes, I doubt they would listen to me.
