The Energon Pub

I'm gearing up to do a gallery later this year of the Japanese exclusive Metrotitan from 1990. I have 2 originals (so that I can piece a good one together for a gallery on Seibertron.com and sell the pieces on eBay) and a KO (to do a proper comparison gallery to show all of you how different it is from the original).

The first Metrotitan I bought didn't come with stickers so I got a set of Reprolabels. The KO version came with a set of stickers and the latest Metrotitan I bought off eBay came with an original set of stickers. All 3 sets of stickers are surprisingly very different. There are stickers from each set that I consider better than the other sets, which is rather odd. Usually the original G1 stickers are always the best, but that doesn't seem to be the case with Metrotitan.

So I scanned all 3 sets of stickers sheets and put together this image to have a little fun with all of you. Can you guess which Decepticon symbol is from which set of stickers? Also, which one do you think looks the best?

I have the KO, but never applied the stix, so I can't even tell. Currently, my MT is pact up. So this is fun!

C was sloppily cut, and in my experience with ReproLabels they wouldn't be that sloppy, so I would guess C is a KO.

And we have a winner folks!

It's interesting that at this high of a scan resolution that the (a) original, while cut well, shows the lowest DPI. I actually prefer (c) KO which is a shame that it wasn't cut better. The (b) Reprolabels actually look nicer, in my opinion, for most of the stickers except the Decepticon symbols which clearly show the pixelation unfortunately. Overall, they look "sturdier" for some reason (and for lack of a better term).
