I've yet to encounter them for myself but the new GI Joe Kre-Os are going down a storm with those who've found them at retail. But did you know that each blind-bag actually features an encoded - and therefore decode-able - numbering system that will allow you to avoid duplicates and find the figures you want?
That's the story over at GI Joe fansite The Leaky Suit Brigade, where they've managed to crack the codes for the entire Wave 1 run of figures.
To read which figure is within each bag, just check the code printed along the right-hand side of the package's rear (as you can see in this rather handy image The Leaky Suit Brigade were kind enough to provide) and then compare it to the decoder chart below:

23401 75 - Alley Viper

23401 77 - Cobra Trooper
23401 78 - Crimson Guard
23401 79 - Cobra Axe Ninja
23401 80 - Kim Arashikage (Jinx)
23401 81 - Kamakura
23401 82 - Quick Kick
23401 83 - Rock-N-Roll
23401 84 - Scarlett
23401 85 - Adventure Team Commander
23401 86 - Torpedo
I have to admit that I'm still on the fence about the whole Kre-O GI Joe line but I'll certainly be on the look out for a few of the above, especially now I know how to locate the ones I want.
With thanks to Jboypacman at Revenge from the Cosmic Ark for the original spot.
