There's a special offer running now - for every $10 spent on Transformers stickers, you receive a free Energon Cube sticker (or alternatively you can buy a set of 3 for $7). These cool stickers transform standard playing dice into Energon cubes for your classic Transformers displays! But don't use up all your playing dice, because you'll want one for the Allspark Cube set. This set transforms a standard playing die into a metallic textured, 3-D finish version of the Allspark from the Movie series to go with your Movie toys.

On the subject of Movie toys, be sure to check out the Revenge of the Fallen Bumblebee and Ironhide upgrade sets. Both add many extra details to the vehicle modes for extra realism. Best of all - the Bumblebee set is compatible with any 2009 Bumblebee mold!

Last but not least is an upgrade set for Animated Lockdown. This set includes labels for all three versions of the Decepticon bounty hunter, and adds extra show accurate details for the original version (including for the chainsaw arm of Blazing Lockdown if you want to mix and match the parts), awesome metallic flame detailing to make your Blazing Lockdown well and truly blazing, and details to cover up the plain gray plastic on Stealth Lockdown and complete the illusion of invisibility.

Check out these sets and many more at the Reprolabels homepage!]]> Mon, 9 Nov 2009 19:03:17 Sponsor News Sponsor News Sol Fury en TFSource Sourcenews Update for 11-8-09 - Stocking Stuffer Campaign 2009 Announced http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/sponsor-news-19/tfsource-sourcenews-update-for-11-8-09---stocking-stuffer-campaign-2009-announced-168757/ http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/sponsor-news-19/tfsource-sourcenews-update-for-11-8-09---stocking-stuffer-campaign-2009-announced-168757/ TFSource!
