Rattler and X-30 stickers suck

[boogerviper]

Is anyone else having trouble with these stickers staying on? Or is it just the humidity or something here?

 

Any surface that curves the stickers are not staying on at all. For example on the Rattler's bombs I had to put them on and then cover the stickers with scotchtape for them to stay.

Weird, I hope mine don't have that problem, what state do you live in Booger?

[Glue]

Flat stickers on curved surfaces. Seen this on the trubble bubbles too. Weren't they decals on the originals?

I hear if you wipe down the planes first with a damp rag and let it dry the stickers will adhere better. Apparently the plastic is kind of oily.

What is this a mobel kit?I am amazed that Hasbro didn't have decals you put into water then apply it to the plane.

i think ur supposed to wipe it with rubbing alcohol first

[hoganvibe]

Yes, use rubbing alcohol. If the oil is the result of a mold release, you'll really want to rub the surface with a lint-free cloth. If you think that you haven't cleaned it well enough, that's a good sign that you should give it another cleaning. To be safe, I'd clean it at least twice, using a different cloth each time.

 

I was not happy with the matte finish of the decals on the glossy plastic or how thick the sticker material was. So I'm going to make new ones out of vinyl. They'll be glossy and will conform to the curves better.

 

The Rattler is the worst. There's more bumps to go over and the clear part of the sticker really shows up on the purple-ish blue. The Conquest isn't too bad. My biggest complaint would have to be the logo on the tail (looks really big on it).

I really didn't have much trouble with mine, except for the instructions telling me to put stickers where there were large bumps or such on the Rattler.

 

 

and just a question. Did Slipstream and Wild Weseal come with stands? Cause I looked all through the packageing and found none.

[Cyber Bishop]

I had no problems putting the stickers on my Rattler.

[jedimaster-c]

It sounds like it's certain caes this is happening to.I plan on getting a second one to take out of the box.I only plan to put the important stickers on the Rattler.

I have not had any problems applying the stickers. They are, however, NOT the same quality as the previous vehicle releases. I DID notice that. They are more ' cloudy' and don't look just right, but that's a whole 'nother topic unto its own. For my part, I am just happy to have found the things.... though I would have thought they would DO BETTER ABOUT FITTING THE PILOTS INTO THE COCKPITS!!!

 

I'm sorry, did I say or think that? Either way, that was the hardest part. Thery went through the trouble of putting these great item out, but neglected to see if the pilots could actually FIT in their seats! Major faux pax on the part of Hasbro.
