Thanks to site sponsor BigBadToyStore, we now have an image of the Kreon Micro-Changers from wave 4, due out this November.
From the image, TFW2005 board members have begun putting charter names to the figures. Nothing official right now, but we have a solid list so far with only a few being question marks:
– Alpha Trion
– Barrage
– Brawn
– Break-Neck (Wildrider)
– Cyclonus
– Demolishor
– Iceberg
– Kup
– Rhinox
– Rodimus
– Sandstorm
– Slipstream
Discuss the new image and the potential characters after the jump!

I'm with Zac Williams. Fembots and Dinobots!

I think Hasbro finally should start Omega Supreme or something. Maybe a showdown between Unicron and Primus (if i were hasbro i would use the Energon cybertron like version)
what do you guys think?

Not sure what stores you've got around, but I've seen the Micro-Changers at TRUs (generally up near the Customer Service desk, or wherever they keep other blind-bag/Lego/minifig items), Target (in the Kre-O section or up by the registers where most of the trading cards & card games & other blind-bags are), and in drugstores like Walgreens.
I wish I'd snagged a few more awhile ago… looking back over the previous waves after catching up on the IDW comics, there's some I wish I hadn't skipped. Also would be nice to have the 5th (and 6th) wheels from Combiner teams, if I ever buy the Combiner sets.

Now we need Dai atlas swerve and star saber

Tough to get excited about these since I've seen wave 2 once, and no sign of wave 3 or any indication that any stores actually carry these.
I wanted a Sharkticon, too.`

I understand the frustration however, Kreons are small, inexpensive, and easily made. As opposed to a full sized, fully sculpted Takara/Hasbro Transformer toy. So character variety is one of the line's styrengths and hope it continues for a very long time.

Thank all that is holy that they are still making these!
Little Rhinox is adorable, also loving Kup, Barrage and the first sign of the Stunticons! Great stuff! Hasbro has all my Kre-o money for the foreseeable future…
GODPRIMUS1975
If the name list is true i have my own list ready for the ones i want from this wave…. last night i was thinking why havent they made brawn and here it is…and a wildrider… MENASOR can he be coming too? Can't wait…but one that i really want to see and not an OP/NP repaint is ULTRA MAGNUS

Looks like I'm gonna have to check Walgreen's for Brawn and Demolishor.

Soooo, I'm not a "serious" collector because I collect the Kreons?

kre-on slipstream? yes please ^_^

Already have custom Brawn, Sandstorm, Kup, Cyclonus & Hot Rod figures, but I suppose I can now re-use the parts elsewhere – they need to make an Ultra Magnus though!!

Still seems like they could give Cyberverse/Legends the half attention they give Kreons for redeco potential. Alpha Trion could be done with Cybertron Legends Vector Prime. Kup from TFPrime Commander Ironhide. Slipstream from TFPrime Commander Starscream.

Cool! A Rodimus Kreon! I'm not into Kreons, but that one I might buy! Awesome!

Nice set, Iceberg's a bit random though…

It's a risk vs. reward equation, really. Blind packs entice the customers regardless of the characters, and the loss isn't that great if they don't sell too terribly well.
Also a good way to gauge character popularity with the general consumers.

Jesus Mary and Joseph, dat Kup and Hot Rod…
Noideaforaname
I don't recall it being confirmed anywhere that it's A3 there; that's just speculation.
… but it's a very sad thing that the first transforming, general release Slipstream figure is a Kreon.
