Lukesaurus Posted February 7, 2020 Author Share Posted February 7, 2020 It looks nice but seems to be to similar to the SS labels . I would have picked a color that would be easily recognizable from far away . Maybe neon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That simple change would make for a more aesthetically appealing label. The Lions Den 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skypinkblu Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 It's a better color than the last one, but much busier than the labels that were samples in the other thread. The white space, the unbalanced sides are annoying, especially for OCD collectors;) I wonder why people ask for opinions then change what they are doing without showing the changes and getting opinions first? When they do that, it doesn't seem that the opinions they asked for matter very much. That's a shame since we are the audience they should be trying to reach. newshane, Cat-Man_America, Kevin.J and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newshane Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I greatly prefer the black label. Gold is almost always hideous. I wish I'd have known we had the opportunity to vote. The newest version is gaudy. mysterio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Robot Man Posted February 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) They are cranking them out to use up the black labels and awaiting the rush of resubmissions for the fancy new gold ones...

A crazy fact that not many seem to know is you can actually read the book, reading comics, whatever next eh!

Dr. Love Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 Took the liberty of copying one of Bedrock's posts regarding a recent reholdering. This is the new label. The new gold label. Obviously it does not present exactly how it looks on the site, or even close to it for that matter. I understand it is more of a gold/bronzish tint. It is not the same as the previous "new" pedigree black/white label. sagii and The Lions Den 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post made me realize that there are actually comic books inside of these shiny label display cases that I've been collecting. I was wondering why some labels are so much more expensive than other labels; maybe the comic books inside the label display cases have something to do with that.

Callaway29 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 (edited) Just stumbled across this...currently up as a preview for an upcoming comiclink auction...guess they're starting to trickle out. The goldish hue is a little more prevalent in this image than the previous one posted... Label aside. The book!
