Based on comments about damaged contents, opened the skystriker today after receiving it and all but Ace had damaged cards.they all had a prominent crease running down the top middle, some worse than others, like they were tacod at the point of the triangle shipping sleeve. Pretty disappointed to say the least.
Obviously could be much worse?.but was really looking forward to these MOC. |

I'm dreading applying the stickers because I'm kind of OCD about perfect placement. Been like that ever since I was a kid with the vintage stuff. I messed up so many pulling them off to reapply. lol

Spray the Skystriker with a mix of 5% dish soap to water, and you can reposition the stickers until you are happy with placement.

I actually had fun putting mine on. I picked them all up with an exacto knife and got them just where I wanted them. I may add some more later, but I'm happy with how it turned out now.

Good catch. Between my ?83 Ace, and the Aces on 3D Joes as well as YoJoe.com it looks like the original Ace didn?t have his rivets painted either. I?d guess the new team was trying to keep the rerelease as accurate to the original as possible.
