    Toyhax/Reprolabels dropped by again and gave us an update for their newest label sets. Here is what Delta Star of Reprolabels has to share with us:

    "We have a wide assortment of new sets for you this month, starting with sets for Titans Return Twinferno and Bumblebee:

    The final 2 sets for our CW Pyrocons line are conversion sets for CW Scattershot and Air Raid, to turn them into our takes on Flame and Skyjack. Their combined form might also be familiar to you Beast Wars fans:

    I'll be ordering the set for MMC Terraegis, and I hope that they do a set soon for Badcube's Lorry (Hoist).
    But what I REALLY want is sets for ToyWorld's Constructicons, and TFC's Seacons.
    C'mon Reprolabels, don't let me down!

    I'm surprised to see their Simba set not include gold stickers to replace the chrome rubbing off --- maybe I missed that label?

    OK, damn, the Fort Max upgrade is INSANE.

    The Flame and Skyjack labels are BRILLIANT.

    The Green Lion is IMPRESSIVE.

    Dudes, Toyhax.com wants all my money, and they're making a great case for me giving it all to them...!

    Pyrocon sets will be mine. Fort Max looks great but 85 bucks is a lot to swallow...

    Looking through the Fort Max set, it's unclear what the repro set includes. Looks like a large and small sword? Anyone know if that's the complete set? Should be listed out somewhere. Maybe I missed it.

    The only decent set is the Fort Max and for that price I highly doubt many people will buy it. Also no penny set this month.

    So are they ever going to do more movie sets? I could use one for Wei Jiang Hound... Or maybe some for Armor Knight Optimus Prime, or TF the ride Evac... Lots of fun movie figures to choose from.

    It took a bit to really appreciate the work done on Betatron -> Inferno. If it wasn't a pain in the butt to find these five figures I'd pick it up for the lolz of having another Decepticon team.

    I absolutely love love looooooooooove those Soundwave Labels god damn! if they aren't the best of the bunch. The Dancefloor omg!!! lol I love it!

    The Fort Max set is just insane. looks really impressive. although it also seems to make it look a bit "too busy"

    It's still really nice to see there's options. though I gotta confess... There's just way too damned much "white" on all those labels (including on the ones Hasbro provides)

    Perhaps what they should have done is instead of all the white, they could have made the labels blend better if they made all the outer white edges the same colors as the plastic for where they are applied. IT would look more like they are a part of the toy rather than just stickers.

    Sad to see how badly they dropped the ball on the Green Lion.

    Rather than add pointless labels where they aren't actually needed thereby taking away show accuracy, what they should have done was add labels to make green lion look more closely like he does on his show model. billions of screenshots out there.

    the chrome labels weren't needed at all, nor the chrome gold labels for the shield.

    apparently you've never seen OG 80's TFs?

    Also alot of the designers are heavily inspired from the War for Cybertron/Fall Of Cybertron/Transformers Prime style in terms of various glow and/or reflectivity.

    As are alot of the fans who buy them. XD

    BW Inferno as a combiner? That sounds... unwise.

    So what character is the Reprolabels combiner referring to? And why is the torso an autobot but the limbs are decepticons? And where am I gonna get a frigging Air Raid? And why do hot dog buns get sold in packages of 8 but hot dogs 10?

    I guess you've never seen a modern interpretation of something where it doesn't have to be duplicated exactly as it was? For example, the diaclone stickers that come with Loud Pedal are not reflective and look fantastic.
