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 Illustrator/Freehand/applicationX -- and that’s really
sweet.
2) If these are the actual sticker sheets in question, or very close to
what they are like (I can already see that the pattern is at least a little
different in terms of the full sheet layout), it gives everyone the ability to
distinguish between the appearance of your stickers and the original ones by
having the visual references available. This was the concern of another poster,
the ability to fake the original stickers.
One thing I don’t understand is the difference between the 375 and the 6075
stickers -- the black vs. grey thing. Weird. Is that a difference of which
buyers of the original minifigures must be wary?
BTW, color laser prints at Kinko’s would run someone approx. a mere $1.95 USD
(http://www.w36.com/inactive/kinkos/arlingtonheights/price.htm). With a few
Avery label sheets in hand I bet the average person needing these stickers could
be made happy. In the states, two full sticker sheets would fit on the average
sheet of 8.5” x 11” adhesive label stock. You could always give the stickers a
coat of finishing spray both for protection and gloss -- it’s available in
various finishes from craft supply stores. The adhesive labelling stock itself
comes in various forms too: clear, gloss, matt, precut for various purposes,
etc. With the clear stock you can make face patterns, for example. If you can
gain access to a printer that prints white or metallic colors then you can do
all kinds of weird things.
And then one would always have that special glow from having put something
together for oneself with the kind help of the fellow enthusiast that made the
sticker sheets available online in the first place.
Many thanks, James!

| Hello! (...) There have been at least three different sticker sheets produced. In the pictures shown from left=old to right=new.
