Reprolables dropped by with a small, but awesome update!

We've had a lot of fun with this update - we bring you four new sets for the Classics series, two of which are inspired by G2!

By popular demand, G1 toy-inspired stickers for the new Wheeljack:

I like those stickers for Hubcap. I may have to get those sometime. The Thunderwing stickers are mostly decent too and add some much needed detail to the rather bland jet mode. The inner robot sticker is amusing though I probably wouldn't use it. I wish there would be a Geoff Senior style thirdparty head replacement for Thunderwing though. The toy's head is fine I guess but Senior's rendition pretty much made the character for me. The guy drew evil angry G1 TFs far better than anyone else even these days.

I'm going to nab the Thunderwing, and G2 Jazz for sure. Maybe Prowl, and a couple others, but those two in particular, I think do a lot for the figures.

I need Reprolabels for.......nobody..... All my G1 figgies have Reprolabels

I was going to pass I getting Thunderwing since he was too plain looking, but now Reprolabels has given me a reason to spend more money. Thanks.

Never heard of Volt before but after checking TF Wiki, I see those labels make it work. (Even though te robot mode doesnt really resemble the G2 character)

If I can get a 2 Wheeljacks when he comes out, Ill be buying that set too. (I always buy a 2nd when Im going to cover painted graphics with repro labels, years later the original paint apps could be damaged by adhesive if they ever peel)

Thunderwing looks better but whats up with that stupid little man in his tummy ???

G2 Jazz : Not interested. With the shortage of newer Generations figures in stores, I dont see this set selling very well.

Kohl's in my neck of the woods has at least 3 the last I checked. I think I can give it whirl. Sorry he's so scarce in your area. Haven't seen a Windcharger yet.

Yes! Wheeljack looks great! I had really been hoping for some stickers for him. Now all I need to do is find the dang figure...

G2 Jazz looks interesting too. I'd get the stickers if I were collecting Classics G2 figures.

The "little man" is the real Thunderwing. This figure doesn't represent Thunderwing, it represents the transforming shell he wears.

Cool! Ordered the classics rodimus and the tracks sets so if these turn out ok I will probably get the Wheeljack set.

I agree on most accounts, except when the go overboard with the chrome(like they did on Jazz).

Wouldn't these stickers put them in the same
range as the pricing on the United figures?

Some figures in the line definitely deserve to be
imported.

Also, is there a company out there that does
waterslide decals? It seems like those would
last longer and could possibly be more detailed
depending on the printer...

For those that do get the stickers,
how well do they hold up? Especially
the ones that cover large areas like
hoods or roofs?

I love those Jazz stickers. A LOT!

Wheeljack is pretty sweet too.

The Volt stickers are not showing on my computer. Saying there's an error of somesort. I really want to see them dammit. I display Hubcap with Volt because really.......Hubcap really should have been named Volt in the first place in my opinion.

Never realy wanted reprolables before but i can see myself getting right into them.

If there's one thing i don't like it's how the sticker go's over the bonett and behind the wheel arch it should have been cut to fit the hood.

I guess its me, but i think some Reprolabels look ok, but others (except G1) look cheap or like a KO? Hey thats me.

With the release of a sticker set for Wheeljack that makes at least 2 figures now they have decals BEFORE the action figure was even available in stores. Unless Wheeljack really is in some stores already I don't know, they sure aren't around where I live.
Still waiting on Wreck-Gar and Windcharger too.

Actually I keep mistakenly calling my Hubcap figure Chromedome because of the head color scheme. I just find it easier to say too.

I definitly the reprolabels for Generations Wheeljack and Tracks, thats for sure. I might pick up some Autobot and Decepticon decals too.

Sure if you want to upgrade your figure. Reprolabels is mainly for the purpose of restoring G1 figures, so, ok then. Have fun.
