That's right Mike. Here are some of the "lame" PRs in more detail.

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (www.KraigLabs.com), a fully reporting biotechnology company is the leading developer of genetically engineered spider silk based fiber technologies. The Company has achieved a series of scientific breakthroughs in the area of spider silk technology with implications for the global textile industry.



Company Confirms Some of Monster Silk's Extraordinary Qualities

LANSING, Mich., Sept. 23, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB:KBLB) ("Company"), the leading developer of advanced spider silk based fibers, today announced that the Company's Monster Silk™ recombinant spider silk fibers are stronger than the comparable weight of traditional structural steel.

"We've long believed that Monster Silk™ tensile strength is stronger than steel, but it's a bonus to be able to quantify and confirm some of its properties for potential commercialization partners," said Company founder and CEO, Kim K. Thompson.

"Since the Company is producing fibers that have never been produced before, we've decided that we will expand our ability to ascertain these results. Therefore, we are investing in testing and measurement equipment that will help us to accelerate the testing of our fibers' unique qualities in a more efficient manner. We believe that this will advance our ability to communicate intelligently with our potential commercialization partners, improve the effectiveness in the laboratory, and greatly reduce the commercialization timeline for future products that we plan on bringing online."


Initial Test Results Indicate That Big Red is Even Stronger Than Monster Silk(R)
LANSING, Mich., Sept. 10, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB:KBLB) ("Company"), the leading developer of advanced spider silk based fibers, today announced that the Company's initial testing of its recombinant spider silk, Big Red, indicate that the Company's new recombinant fiber is stronger than Monster Silk®. The testing indicates that Big Red's strength, as measured by the ultimate load it can withstand before breaking, is approaching that of natural spider silk.

"These initial testing results appear to confirm the effectiveness of our design approach with Big Red," said Company founder and CEO, Kim K. Thompson. "Big Red was designed to be even stronger than our breakthrough product, Monster Silk®," continued Thompson. "If the follow on testing confirms these results, Big Red will be a significant breakthrough for our Company and for material science."

"So far, Big Red has met or exceeded our expectations and design parameters. Our plan is for Big Red to follow Monster Silk® in our commercialization ramp up."

Kraig Biocraft Laboratories Launches Commercial Production of Monster Silk(TM)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Company Plans on Producing Metric Tons of Recombinant Spider Silk in 2014 gy with implications for the global textile industry.


LANSING, Mich., Oct. 7, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB:KBLB) ("Company"), the leading developer of advanced spider silk based fibers, today announced the launching of the Company's commercial production program with the recent hatching of its first batch of Monster Silk™ silkworms for commercial production.

Furthermore, the Company is currently expending resources to augment the scale of its Monster Silkworm™ production over the next 30 to 90 days. This move coincides with the Company's planned strategy to rapidly increase its production capacity. The Company's strategy is to commit the vast majority of its initial production capacity to a propagation program designed to increase its production population. A smaller portion of the first commercial production generation should also yield fibers which can be dedicated to the production of woven textile samples.

"Our launch of our commercial scale production of Monster Silk™ is a long awaited major milestone for Kraig, as we demonstrate our ability to convert recombinant spider silk, and Monster Silk™ most specifically, from an exciting laboratory technology to a marketable product," said, CEO and founder, Kim K. Thompson. "We believe that rolling out the world's first recombinant spider silk commercial production project will only expand our global development prospects, for Monster Silk™ and other high technology fibers."

"It has taken many years to go from my initial concept of recombinant spider silk to the laboratory production of Monster Silk™ and now the actual launch and scaling up of the commercial scale production. I want to thank our investors and, most particularly, the research scientists, whose work and dedication has made this long anticipated day possible."

"Given the current planned production schedule, we could theoretically be producing Monster Silk™ in metric ton quantities by early January. A more conservative estimate, given the realities of launching such a ground breaking and commercially unique project, would be to reach that major milestone in mid 2014. This move reaffirms our view that Kraig is the world's leading developer of recombinant spider silk technologies," concluded Thompson.

Joint Intellectual Property Agreement Covers the Collaborative Development of Spider Silk Based Textiles

LANSING, MI--(Marketwired - Oct 21, 2013) - Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (OTCQB: KBLB) ("Company"), the leading developer of advanced spider silk based fibers, and Warwick Mills, Inc. ("Warwick"), a leader in the engineering and development of advanced technical textiles and other protective materials, jointly announced today that they have signed a collaborative development agreement concerning the development and commercialization of advanced textiles utilizing Kraig's Monster Silk™ recombinant spider silk technology.

Under terms of the agreement, the two companies will jointly develop innovative textile products based on Kraig's Monster Silk™ fibers. Under the terms of the agreement, the two companies will jointly own textile product related intellectual property which is developed as a result of the collaboration.

Joint development will initially focus on Monster Silk™ weaving, testing and near term applications. The companies believe that this collaborative relationship will help expedite the commercialization of Monster Silk™ and future spider silk based technical fibers.

"This collaborative undertaking represents a huge step forward in our commercialization efforts. The pairing of Kraig's spider silk technology with Warwick's world-class technical textiles applications engineering and weaving abilities is a bold move which we believe will enhance and accelerate the penetration of spider silk into technical textile markets," said Kraig CEO and founder, Kim K. Thompson.

"Warwick Mills is recognized for engineering technical textiles with protective applications and its ability to bridge the gaps between innovative technologies and market integration. Their global reputation is built on the foundation of innovation and performance. I believe the joint development agreement is an important milestone and that Warwick's impressive capabilities makes them an ideal bridge builder between Kraig's expertise in spider silk technologies and the capturing of market share in the technical textiles arena," concluded Thompson.
