   (...) Kai, Nice job restoring this classic LEGO set. Have you seen the reproduction stickers sold on eBay? I don't know the guy, but from the pictures and descriptions, it seems these might be worth a try: (URL) Main thomasmain@myrealbox.com (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle)
   
        Re: New Pictures of my 375 Castle ! —Richard Marchetti
   (...) see the guy making back his costs in materials or something, but I bet at approx. $10 a sheet he's doing more than that. I'd feel differently if he were selling his own designs. If these are TLC's stickers he's knocked off -- that's pretty (...) (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

     (URL) right or wrong, I got a set of his stickers and they are very well done. A lot better than the ones that come off a inkjet nomatter what the dpi (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle)

     (...) Very cool. More than cool. Terrific! Are you, in fact, the eBay seller -- or perhaps a close contact of the seller? I ask for two reasons: 1) You obviously put at least some work into creating those vector-based stickers sheets in (...) (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

      Hello! (...) There have been at least three different sticker sheets produced. In the pictures shown from left=old to right=new. The old ones were most likely exclusive to the original 375 edition whilst the second and third one might be used on (...) (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)

     (...) Nope, not me sorry, I live i the UK not Canada :) Like I said I have brought a set off him and they are well done but I dont know him and have no vested interest here, if you think they are a ripoff dont buy them, if you think they are cool (...)

     (...) James, do please post all the links to these files. There's no point in anyone else reinventing the wheel, right? All of this stuff has been on my "to do" list along with some Paradisa tile elements, but if you've already done it -- pass it (...) (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle, FTX)
   
        Re: New Pictures of my 375 Castle ! —Thomas Main
   (...) Well, I think he is selling a value-added product that is worth the price he is charging. He is also offering something that TLC hasn't produced for twenty years and it sounds like he reverse-designed the patterns rather than merely copied (...)

        Re: New Pictures of my 375 Castle ! —Johannes Koehler
     Hello! (...) I'm not sure about that. In fact I highly doubt that. I rather think that people who want to sell a 375/6075 but don't have enough original stickers buy these copies and fake the minifigs for the purpose of being able to sell a (...)

     (...) Jep ! that's the bad thing about it. And in a few years the "non- collecting-just-have...ay"-Seller do not know the fake himself :) (...) why should you bye more of them? your collection of the old knights seemed to be very complete... ;) (...)

        Re: New Pictures of my 375 Castle ! —Kai Gerkens
    hmmm... if there is not a great profit - let him sell these stickers! :) the "real" collectors are warned if someone will sell a 375 on ebay with new-looking stickers anyway ! But my opinion is: don't fake it - restore it. Does anyone have a good (...) (21 years ago, 18-Sep-03, to lugnet.castle)
