After four hours of me putting the garbage sticker on the rattler all stickers on the bombs and missles have come up.Working thier way back strait and holding on only at one spot. Freaking trash. Are the cobrastickers.com stickers any better then the ones the rattler comes with?

The stickers the planes come with are actually of good quality. All of mine applied perfectly, no lifting corners, etc. The problem is that you need to wipe down the plane with a cloth or a cloth with rubbing alcohol to get rid of the oil on the plastic. Otherwise the stickers have nothing to adhere to. No matter what the quality of sticker is, if there is oil on the surface of the plastic, it's not going to stick.

This post should have been in one of the other million complaint threads about the Rattler.

Well, I'm not sure how well the stickers will stick if you've already applied them. BUT, you'll need to wipe the plane down anyway, so go for it. Rubbing alcohol will not ruin the plastic or affect it in any way. I just used a cotton T-shirt to wipe it down. I'll probably use alcohol for my other ones. Good luck. I really hope the stickers will stick (and that they didn't get too much oil on them)

I just don't bother putting stickers on my vehicles anymore. If they aren't on there when they come out of the package, then they most likely won't be put on.
