That site is new to me.
I'm not sure if those stickers come pre-cut or not though. They are cheaper than some other sites, so that might mean you have to cut the stickers off of the sheet one by one. On another note this is the first website that I've ever seen which offers custom blister bubbles. I'm sure many Tankers here would be very interested in that alone.

I ordered some Dragonfly stickers. I didn't like 'em. Not at all. I didn't like the quality and the feel, and they aren't pre-cut, at least mine weren't. This was a couple years ago. It also took forever to get them. They also aren't printed on the same type sticker/paper that original stickers or CobraStickers.com uses.
Personally, I wouldn't order from them again. |

Many years ago (back before I was on Hisstank) I ordered some Terrordrome stickers from them.....they were crap. Not precut, half of the stickers were on white paper-like stickersheet (These would be for the silo doors and computer screens, ect..) I also had a small bit of water fall on the remander of the white sheet and some of the stickers I hadn't used smeared right into oblivion. The ones that were on clear vinyl were fine, til a year or two later when they curled off.
Supposedly, they've gone back and fixed a lot of these problems as read from this statement on their sticker page: Quote:
I have revamped my sets to address the primary complaint about my stickers that is true: I do not print stickers with white text or logos. I have taken a lot of flak from "Flophouse" and "Shogi" on the YoJoe boards for this fact. Flophouse writes many things about my stickers which are categorically untrue; I think this is because either (A) his last experience using my decals was a period of years ago and his opinions do not reflect upgrades or (B) he has never used them and the complaints are based on heresay. However, I do acknowledge that, on non-white surfaces, I often employ white vinyl rather than clear to get the best effect. In many cases, as you will see in my demo pics, my use of white vinyl either has no effect on the appearance of the vehicle, or it actually improves the sticker clarity. His complaints that my decals are not as sharp and crisp as j.ruben's is false. I use an RGB graphics program and completely recreate the stickers so there is no way this is true. Click here to see exactly what I'm talking about. These decals, like j.ruben's, look better than the originals as they are not faded or "offset." The other element that is untrue is that my decals smudge. I warned all buyers years ago that they should spray the stickers with a topcoat prior to application. No one did it, and I got a few complaints, so I just started doing it myself. I promise you, you can submerge my stickers without smudging. When the Sox beat the Rockies I made some custom car decals the same way I make these stickers, and it rained on them every day with no running whatsoever. Watch this video if you have any doubts as to the steadfastness of these stickers. So, if you are thinking about buying a dark vehicle's sticker set, and you want WHITE print on a CLEAR sticker, please, save us both the trouble and buy j.ruben's. His are considerably more expensive, particularly for the small sets, but you will like them better (well, I just presume you will, I've never actually used his). If you want a white (or light colored) vehicle set, then I assure you there is no difference between my set and those of others' except that mine are probably cheaper. Even if you want a dark set, if a few color changes from white to black don't bother you, then, by all means, look no further.

I too fell victim. I ordered, took a while, the stickers sucked (some were even SMUDGED). I was told to keep them and he would send replacements. I never got them, never got a refund and no further contact. They weren't precut. Bottom line, just don't do it. On the other hand, Cobrastickers.com has EXCELLENT product and service. I would even say their stickers are better than what comes with the toys to start with. AND they are precut. Terror Drome stickers are on the way. So they told me.

All my stickers that I got from him started curling off after time. However, I did really like the white being replaced by black on the darker vehicles as it gives it a low visibilty type of scheme. I haven't bought for a long time though. He always dilevered though so I have no complaints on the delivery or customer service as he sent replacement stickers to me once I showed him that the stickers I got before were peeling.

I got stickers from them off of e bay once I believe and they were horrible. I didn't even use them the quality was so bad.
Check J Ruben or maybe contact Cobrastickers for the terror dome stickers. I don't think cobrastickers has them but maybe they would print some off. Anything is possible with them. |
