Kre-O Megatron and Sentinel Prime Official Robot Mode Images
Even more Kre-O news! Up next we have official images of the Kre-O Sentinel Prime and Megatron sets in their robot modes. Megatron you might have seen on the front of the box earlier on, so this is a better look at him, but it is Sentinel Prime who is the star of this news post.

Check out both official images, which originated from Select2gether, for a look at these building block versions of classic characters. [Read more…]
