That Pyro would look great mixed with some Shapeways upgrade it. He's becoming the Battle Core Optimus Prime of the line, being a Voyager with a lot of reusablity as custom-foddr. And, oh man, that Optimal Optimus set: while there's a lot in there I wouldn't use, I gotta say these textured sticker to match fur molding looks really great. Shame there's no spark sticker for the Matrix, however, as I was hoping we'd see a BW-style spark option for it to reflect the episode where the form debuted.
Edit: According to a post on the youtube video, they are doing a Throne version toon. If we can get a third party upgrade kit which match that color scheme and a reprolabels set for this version of the figure it will be truly, shall we say....optimal?

That primal set looks good, I'm digging the 3D stickers. Pyro would be nice, shame I still haven't seen Inferno in stores and he's over priced online (though it seems Amazon finally got him at a good price).

A great new set for CW Blast Off: https://toyhax.com/for-potp/2637-labels ... t-off.html
Completing the POTP Monsterbots, check out this set for Repugnus: https://toyhax.com/for-potp/2635-labels ... ugnus.html
Fans of IDW and G1 will love these upgrades for MMC's Colisus: https://toyhax.com/standard-scale/2636- ... lisus.html
Continuing our sets for Studio Series! Here's our offering for Blackout: https://toyhax.com/for-movie-toys/2638- ... ckout.html

Still no color-corrected sets for G1 Ultra Magnus and Sunstreaker. I really wish they'd make those. Also, Sunstreaker's sheet looks to be still missing the factory headlight stickers.

I just noticed that Studio Series Optimus' set is listed under POTP for some reason.
And I am disappointed yet again. Really wish they'd add the bloody headlights to Sunstreaker's sheet already. And offer a version with yellow shoulder stickers. An additional nice touch would be putting something into the blanked-out CR sticker

Noticing some odd apparent omissions in the PotP Dinobot labels. Why doesn't Slag have alternate optics color stickers? Why does Slash only have alternate optics color stickers for robot mode? Why do Sludge and Snarl only have them for beast mode? Or are these omissions from the photos rather than the sheets themselves?

I'll probably get all 3 Junkion sets, but as funny as their alternate head conversions are, I'll be looking to Shapeways or 3Ps for actual replacement heads...difficult though it appears removing the real one will be.
And as much as CW Blast Off needs a new identity, SHAKEDOWN? Not even a pun off Blast Off or Slingshot? While I was going to call him Take-Off or Lift-Off, the joy I experienced dealing with replacement Blast Off and all of Amazon's exclusives this summer, including mismatched parts, unexplained preorder cancellations, confusion over release dates, their accidentally signing me up for a free trial of Prime when I lacked the funds to make use of it, etc, has made me realize that my old dingy Aerialbot repaint was actually called F@&k-Off in my headcanon all along. Yes, CW deluxe F#%k-Off has the ability to compel any Prime Wars gestalt he's a part of to jam said limb down the garbage disposal! Which power of the Primes will save him next time?
Also, are the raised tires for Firestar and Moonracer partly to save their undercarriages from being scraped? Is that a common problem? I just feel like I'm missing something here.

Since he has Slingshot's head, he has the swindle visor and a blocky head... like swindle. The brown and purple remind me of animated swindle, and his bio looks to be written as he's one of swindle's companions in crime; one he calls in when he needs to play "good arms dealer bad arms dealer" or "shake them down" to a better deal. Not that you can't headcannon your own name, but yeah. Makes sense to me.
And yes, firestar and moonracer have a hair's width of clearance underneath, so its to give the undercarriage the best fighting chance against scraping.

As someone who's greatly enjoyed his Nemesis Prime and has been interested in trying reprolabels for a while, I was eagerly hoping for this! The parody of the "wide turn" warning sign, the "R.I.P. Tommy" tattoo, and the vanity license plate just give him such a diabolical attitude. Fits right in with my headcanon of this version of Nemesis Prime as a dude who revels in his wickedness.
More than that, I'm excited for the solid windshields to really play up that splash of red/pink every Nemesis needs. I also appreciate that they included so many options for allegiances: it's very fitting for this Homage-imus Prime. I think I might go with the Combatron ones since he's the counterpart to my Fire Convoy. Since he'll be the only one with the logo, it'll also play up that "evil clone" angle.
Now I just need to go watch some tutorials on how to apply reprolabels.

Thanks for the tips. It's always nice to have a bit of forewarning. Probably crossing into the realm of questions for the customizers' forums, but do I need hobby tweezers, by the way? Or will regular ol' first aid kit tweezers suffice?

HaveQuestions, you're all good. If it pertains to Repro Labels, it's cool to ask here.
I think either type of tweezers would work, though the hobby ones may be a little more nimble.
I actually use the very tip of my Xacto knife. I just stick the label to the end and use it to guide the label.
And I just wanted to reinforce the idea that Toyhax's web photos ARE the intended instructions for application, and they make it pretty clear where things go.
Good luck labeling, and have fun!

A lot like stickers on Gundam kits: tweezers and a lot of stress about ripping it or applying it wrong.

I bought the Studio Series Starscream stickers and have just applied them. I went with all the stars instead of the Decepticon symbols cos "Robots in Disguise", not "Robots Advertise" It's a more subtle set than some I've bought but adds some nice extra details & shading in places.

It's Unite Warriors! Not Legends! Argh!
Meh on the Optimus set. The stacks look clunky and awkward, both from needlessly making them pull double duty as guns and from them being black plastic that perforce is only partially covered by stickers. It ultimately makes them look worse than the stock smokestacks, stubby though those are. And I despise cartoony cel-shaded window stickers on stuff like this, I think they end up looking completely and totally stupid. Like, it's one thing to use them on window surfaces that were just opaque plastic; my taste there runs more toward simple metallic color or quasi-realistic shading, but cel-shaded still looks alright in most cases. Covering up perfectly good transparent plastic with it on the other hand... that drives me bugnuts.
I wish the people at Toyhax would stop clowning around with rubbish like that and fix the G1 Sunstreaker sheet already. The lack of the headlight stickers is especially obnoxious since their use of a photo lifted from Sunny's instructions for the sticker map blatantly shows the deficiency.
The Megatron sets are alright, and aside from an instance of Cyberglow the Grand Maximus set looks quite good.

Given that Toyhax has jumped into making three dimensional parts for figures, I really wish they would make something to fill that gap in the back of Optimal Optimus when he's in surfing mode. That hollow back annoys the heck out of me.

Okay, but between them and the janky stack add-ons, almost half the set is stuff I don't want and they don't seem to offer a cheaper version without the janky stacks (and preferably without the windows). And making cel-shaded window stickers for toys that have perfectly good actual windows feels like such a pointless thing to expend effort on when they could be fixing something that's been broken for the best part of the time they've been in business.

Sometimes, I think Toyhax feels obligated to do something for toys bigger than a deluxe, even to the point of overdoing it or making a rather ugly product. See: POTP Elita-1.

Toyhax's January update is here at last!
This ingenious kit for Siege Hound comes with a roof piece for his vehicle mode, which also doubles as a riot shield.
Not to mention a fantastic sticker set, as always! Take a look:

We LOVE micromasters here at Toyhax. So, naturally, we went all out for the new versions:
https://toyhax.com/for-siege/2675-label ... trols.html

Even the stickers don't do anything to improve the alt on sideswipe with it's out of place looking black panels/parts akin to the Hasbro Combiner wars stunticons. the lambo sticker is just wrong on a cybertonian mode.
I spent about an hour (or more! and havent finished turning POTP Inferno into Pyro yet. I was thinking its probably easier to just buy the old figure than go to that amount of effort and then the finished results start to show -and it seems every miniute of applying them is well spent
I'm pretty new to using repro labels but they are definitely worth trying (the official Hasbro CW/TR labels nearly put me off because they were that bad).

Honestly, I don't need most of the stickers that Toyhax usually offers for each figure. It's a great concept to give so many options so you can customize each figure to your liking, but for my tastes, it's too much of a waste. What I need, though, is more like a small sheet of "touch up" stickers for each figure. For Sideswipe, all I really need are white stickers for the knee pads and a white triangle for the pelvis. For Optimus Prime, just a blue rectangle for the pelvis and maybe some yellow triangles for the wrists. For Megatron, a red rectangle for his abdomen. I'd love to see a set of "essential details" for the whole SIEGE line put on one big sheet for one price, very much like what Hasbro tried to do with the Combiner Wars/Titans Return sheets a few years back.

I like the extra red stripe stickers for Starscream's wings, but that's about all I would need. The other stickers are just kind of there to justify the price tag, I feel. With Soundwave, all I would want is the red eye stickers, nothing else. It would be nice to have a clean, non-battle damaged tape deck door for his chest, but the stark black and cel shaded window look aren't doing it for me. Perhaps the problem is that Hasbro and Takara have been doing such a good job with the decos for these Siege figures that adding details isn't really needed anymore?
