Sticker peel on TRU Insecticons
Ok, so I've had these guys for 2 days and already the stickers are lifting. So far it's only the ones going over curved/angled surfaces like on Shrapnel's forarms and Bombshell's feet. I've tried applying massive amounts of force and that hasn't solved the problem. I know the older TRU reissues had problems with this as well, but so far all of my old Commemorative Series are holding up fine.
So has anyone else noticed this yet? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Sorry buddy, I'm still sure you're the only person who's managed to pick up these guys in all of North America.

Bend the stickers slightly before applying.

When peeling them from the sheet too. I noticed the adhesive wanted to stay on the sheet on a couple of them, just had to be careful.

Re: Sticker peel on TRU Insecticons
imho the easiest solution is to wash the bots(even though they are new)with sunlight dishsoap and let it dry before applying the decals.you never know if some worker in china just finished eating pizza during his lunch break and didn't wash his hands before returning to work.
(btw,if you want to restore the "stickyness" of your decals,put a dab of 90 proof alcohol on a rag and give the decals sticky side a quick wipe or two.but don't over do it!)
