He's also already (technically, semantically) very G1 accurate. And so good looking.

True story, Alpha Bravo saved my copy of RiD 35 from a terrible fire. Really cool of him to do that. Then he went back in and saved my G1 DVDs, because his middle name is "Geeonesavior".

I was really hoping for a Chromia set. Well done.

But some sets get ridiculously overpriced. Some of them are more expensive than a deluxe figure.

It's a good thing I got the WJ set when it was still 1 cent. Now it's $ 7.50.

Reprolabels.com's largest update ever!

Cool stuff. New site's looking good too though the top menu seems overly chunky (not sure if it's just my browser).


Hm, hadn't noticed the Generations Roadbuster stickers before. They actually make the figure almost look not crappy. I'm kinda tempted to keep my Roadbuster fugure that I only bought cos it was cheap and get those stickers. Probably won't though. I do need some new Autobot and Decepticon faction stickers though.

heh.

Typical these are released literally hours after I got bored and applied the Hasbro HK sticker sheet.

Next pay I'm getting a bunch of these...

I have not been liking their new website, to be honest. On the old site, I could find what I wanted quickly and easily. The new one seems overly clunky and not nearly as easy to navigate.

As for the latest batch of stickers... Damn, I was looking forward to see what they did with Powerglide, and I can't help but feel disappointed. It's only $3.50, so I might still tack it onto my next order, but it just feels like half of the included stickers are extra details I won't need. Meanwhile, I was really hoping they'd include a couple of red stickers for the back of the legs to help them blend into the alt mode better.

I dunno... Overall I still think they do great work, but lately that work has felt a bit less great. In the past, every set felt like a homerun. Now, some feel bogged down with unnecessary extra stickers, and occasionally there are outright misses.

To end on a positive note: the stickers for the various Aerialbots look good! If I was getting the Hasbro version, those stickers would be a must. (I wonder what the chances of them also doing stickers for the Takara version are?)

The new site is head and shoulders above the clunky one they used to have. It's so easy now to find and view everything!

It's their new website.

So in other words, they are no longer "reprolabels" they are now "Toyhax" ?

According to the guy above, they have changed the site for the worse. Are the sticker maps still available for download? Im on a cell right now and cant really tell.

Ehhhhhhh that's a rough looking website #-o Not a fan, not a fan at all.

And Toy Hax? Did Reprolables get bought out or just change their name?

Yeah, I'm not a fan of this new site setup, difficult to navigate, no pics of the decals sheets themselves, and those orange colors are burned into my retinas. Did Reprolabels get bought out by someone or something that brought about such a massive change? When I clicked the link and it didn't work, but redirected me to a site called Toyhax I thought something nefarious was going on for a minute :lol:

they've rarely had images of the sticker sheet in the past from my past orders, maybe 5 or so of the ones I've ordered ever had one?

Toyhax has been around for a bit, Reprolabels have been promoting the site for a while for the backdrops they sell, looks like they decided to consolidate.

What the heck happened to the old website? My browser's getting errors in accessing it. Jeez! :BANG_HEAD:

I think the old website is no more. When I tried to go to it, I got the front "Click To Enter" page, but so clicking just redirected me right to the new one.

Ayyway, I sent the following message to them:

I just wished to express displeasure with your new website. I find it much more difficult to navigate, the preview images aren't as nice, and the colors are rather garish. Overall, I found the old website much easier on the eyes, and more easy to find product on. I hope you reconsider some of the changes you have made. Thank you.


I got the following response, which came within minutes and is rather vague, leading me to suspect it is just an automated stock response:

Hi there!

We appreciate your feedback, and if you would like to give
any suggestions, we will gladly take them under consideration. As of now, we are
very busy with the new release, and with some technical problems. However, once
things have slowed down a little, we will be able to address your concerns.

Hope we can help,
Alex Black


If the website does indeed remain as it is, I suppose I'll live with it and adjust. But it does just seem so garish, and (more importantly) the interface is overly clunky and not at all intuitive. I miss the ease and simplicity of their old site.

Eventually, I will be wanting to order something. I wonder how smooth (or not smooth) the ordering process is on the new site? Has anyone else gone through it, and care to express their opinion?

Okay everybody...

The website Toyhax was set up a few months ago when the people at Reprolabels started doing the backdrops for figure displays. So since they're running both Reprolabels and Toy Stage, I believe they combined them for ease of operation.

I just purchased some stickers yesterday, so I can talk about how that went: I payed throughPayPal, so if you do that the process shouldn't be too different.

Personally, I like some things about the new set up; on the plus side, they have separated 3rd party TF stickers from their "Classics" sections. To me this is a huge plus, because sifting through those on the old website was a pain. So I think their organization has gotten better. However, I'm not crazy about the image set up, but I also don't have any suggestions right now on how to make it better.

Right now I think they'll be changing some things and getting it all to run smoothly and look good to the eyes, so I'm not worried that this is the end all set up. Time will tell.

This is one of the few nice things about the new site, although frankly, since technically all their other categories are not Transformers, they could have used a better designation then, "Not TF." "3rd Party TF," maybe?

But having them separated, and under the toy's official name, is the one thing they've done that I like. With multiple third parties sometimes covering the same character, and sometimes those being for characters Hasbro has also done, having them all in the same section and all using the character's name could make for a bit of a cluster-frak.

So cheers to them for that, even if I still boo pretty much everything else about the new website.
