    So how do we feel about the Stunticon sets? I'm going to purchase them all, but I'm just wondering how everyone likes them?

    I was a little surprised how over the top they went with Dragstrip; given the attempt to stick close to the original toy decos with the other members.

    I think they did much better with the CW Stunticon sets, than they did with the FP Stunticon sets.

    Ooh, the Megatron set's finally he-

    >$13

    How the fuck does a medium-sized sticker sheet cost the same as a Shapeways order?

    I only want the swirls, dammit. I'll buy that particular sticker if anyone isn't using it...

    Don't count on them doing a mirage set. They've stated they aren't touching any figures that are cigarette liveried.

    Yeah, I'm on the fence about this one myself. I know I'm only going to use the chest stickers along with the inner arms and some of the cannon stuff, while the remainder will stay in the envelope like all of my other half-used ReproLabels sets. So $13 seems excessive.

    When did they move to toyhax.com?

    Also why are the RiD2015 sets as much as the toys?

    Hmm....Leader Megatron with CW labels or Hegemon for a CHUG display? I'm a bit concerned the Leader one is a bit too big, scale-wise.

    Okay... I know I might get some hate for this... but I really don't like any of these.

    I think the problem is they look too... busy. They look like add ons for add-ons sake. I didn't see any that made me say "Wow, that was totally needed". It could just be me, as I feel a 'less is more' approach is always better; too many colors or strange designs graphics ruin a transformer in my opinion.

    I wish you'd guys go a bit simpler, focusing more on a few much needed add-ons (like bumper stickers, side mirror details, so on) than going to such an extreme.

    Some of the links still don't work and most of them require you to click on another link.

    It's not exactly difficult but it isn't professional.

    Huh, normally I don't use all my reprolabel stickers, but I actually think they didn't go far enough with Motormaster. I was hoping for some big color matching wrap around stickers like they did with Prime Knockout (Loved that set btw).

    I didn't want to say anything but yeah the prices these days seem exorbitant.

    Also Toyhax sounds like a dumb name to replace an established brand that everyone knows. Reminds me of when I was a kid and they changed Sav-On Drugs in Southern California to Osco. It lasted maybe a year or two and they admitted defeat and went back to the name everyone knew and loved.

    Nice to see that they're not so geewun obsessed that they would forget to do an AB set.
