I recently purchased some excellent decals for my Skystriker. They have been stowed away for a while in a nice flat area. I decided to put them on my Skystriker and now I have a small issue. The very edges of the decals curl a little bit. From far away you really can't tell anything.. but up close you can see the curl.
Has anyone had a problem with these decals? I haven't tried the hair dryer trick yet, but does that actually work in this case? If anyone has any insight on this issue... please ... help a Tanker out. |

I had this problem with some Terrordrome stickers from the 334 guys. The glue dried up and the vinyl shrunk. If you got them from the same guys, they're probably only going to get worse.

Does anyone know where to get some excellent.. NO PROBLEM, NO CURLIN' decals?? I only applied some decals and the ones on the fins are curlin like wild. Thought of applying small amounts of super glue to the sides... but i don't know if that would work.

I have had Mamba Stickers I bought from J.Ruben on my Mamba for a few years now and no problems at all. I've also had some custom stickers from GI Joeheaven on a PTE FA-18 for at least a year now with no problems either. So there's two for ya

If you got the decals from 334th, you're pretty much up the creek right now. But a few weeks ago, Cobrastickers.com had posted like they were going to begin carrying SkyStriker repro decals. They had them priced $25 a set, but I think it would have been well worth it for the "better-than-hasbro" quality. Now they're gone off the site like they were never there. It sucks. So if you need those SkyStriker decals as much as I do, start sending cobrastickers some emails.

The only place that I know of to get some excellent, no problem, no curlin' decals would be a MIB Skystriker, and probably then they wouldn't be perfect.
