Which reprolabels are worth getting?

Hey guys and gals,

I was very dissapointed in the trailer that came with MP 10 since I got the Hasbro one and it was all just dull gray plastic inside with nothing to highlight any of the great detailing. Someone told me the reprolabels would work wonders on it and make it look amazing. So I will get those.

My question is, are there any other reprolabels that you found really worth getting? This would be for the more recent toys of the past 10 years. For example, I thought AOE Hound was quite worthwhile but MP Wheeljack didnt add anything the toy needed, in my opinion. I look forward to hearing your recomendations.

Just about every set from Reprolabels is worth getting to the point where when I see some official Hasbro photographs I think "Man, the Reprolabels upgrade on hat is going to be so sweet!"

Just look at what they did for G1 Metroplex and Trypticon but my favorite sets are for Alternity purple Megatron and Musiclabel Soundwave.

PRID Knockout was a worthwhile purchase, and symbols are always nice to have handy. I dont get to buy Reprolables often, but when i did they always went well for me

the sticker quality is unmatched, I have owned about 20 different sets of stickers and love them all

my favorite is for mp-10.... but take the trailer apart, it makes it much easier to painting and apply the decals accurately...

Recent versions of reprolabels have improved from their early versions, almost to the point of being better than the Hasbro releases. The WJ decals btw are at par with the official Ocean decals. If you saw what the real Lancia WJ looked like, you'll really go bonkers with the custom decals.

MP-10? Go for it!

I believe they, reprolabels do combine shipping. email them an inquiry. They have a lady PR staff (I forgot her name) who handles these things.

They do and thats the point. Their shipping is great. That's why I want to get a bunch at once and not have to realize three weeks later that I missed a good one and must go back and pay for shipping again.

I already have my G1s redone (they look amazing), ROTF Leader Optimus, Alternators Jazz and Movie Hound. I will be getting the MP-10 one for the trailer (wont be painting it though) and I just wanted to know which other ones were worthwhile so that I can buy them all at once and pay shipping only once.

I'm more into G1 so if you have G1 toys, try the "upgrades" sheets. The Rodimus Prime set made my brick of a toy a nicer looking brick of a toy. :grin:

Generations Crosscut and Brainstorm are some recent sets that come to mind as just outstanding. Crosscut even has stickers that give options for a more e-hobby toy look or a more comics/FoC look, and mixing and matching them is pretty fun.

I mostly buy their stuff for third party figures since those are often pretty plain looking. Reprolabels are a downright enormous upgrade for TFC Hercules.
