I was selected to review a Kre-o construction set made my Hasbro.  To be honest I had never even heard of this ]product before.  So I had no idea what expect.

The  Kre-O collection features 12 popular Transformers characters and each character can be made into a robot or a vehicle, in true Transformer fashion.  

My kids were rather excited about it and we turned it into a fun family project.  The first thing I noticed when I opened the box was…..oh my look at all these little pieces.  I am not sure if I can focus long enough to help the kids put this together.  But I soon found the step my step images made the whole process rather easy.   The kids had fun finding the next set of pieces, and their excitement grew as they watched the blocks start to transform into Optimums Prime.  It took us about an hour to put together (lots of little hands helping)  we lost the head a few times at it kept rolling off the table…. but finally got him all put together. It was a great way to spend quality time with my kids.  I also felt it was a good teaching tool as well, taught them to follow instructions and identify shapes and colors.  The best part is after they were done, they got to play with him.

My Daughter said ” Mom this was so fun, kind of like a puzzle.  But instead of tearing it apart and putting it back in the box, I get to play with it.”

I really did like this toy, and it was well made too.  The blocks all snapped together perfectly.  These sets are sold at most major retailers nationwide and range from $7.99 to $59.99.  Print the below coupon to help make this a thrifty deal.
