Kre-O! Since 2009, Hasbro has been pretty consistent with its boy action toy lines - there's not a lot of wiggle room for new IP, but a few years ago it looked like Kre-O was going to be their next big push. They threw some great licenses at it and the toys were cute - today, though, we've found out that Toys R Us will be carrying the brand exclusively, which doesn't say a lot for its widespread adoption and expansion.

The big toy retailer will enjoy Transformers: Age of Extinction brick toys with plenty of cool dinobots, as well as Dungeons & Dragons sets that are hitting stores now.
The future for the brick brand is a bit of a question mark, but more G.I. Joe are en route to fill out the ranks of your brick army. Actual Joe action figures will be exclusive to Toys R Us this year as well, so be sure to keep an eye on the house that the giraffe built in the coming weeks.
