Good news Kreon fans! The initial wave of Hasbro's new Kreon Micro-Changers have been spotted at mass retail. These have popping up at specialty shops since SDCC, but this marks their first sighting at mass retail. They were spotted by Jack Darby at a Wal-Mart location in Texas.

Speaking of the Kreon Micro-Changers, the Seibertron.com galleries of these little guys went live earlier today!

One of the biggest requests from fans regarding the Kre-O line when it first appeared was they wanted the nifty Kreons sold individually. Hasbro listened while adding another twist and created Kreon micro-changers. These micro-changers include Galvatron, Spinister, Scorponok, Waspinator, Crankstart and Sunstorm. While blind bagged, you can determine the character inside from the stamped numbers on the package using this list. Seibertron.com has added these transforming micro-changer Kreons to its vast galleries.
