| | Stickers - Problems
|
| The last 2 new sets I have built (4560 & 3225) have both had the same problem with their stickers. The problem is that the other items inside the MISB boxes must rub against the sticker sheet and cause them to come off the sheet and stick on other (...)

| (...) No. 4560 is BETTER than 4561 because it doesn't come with the rather useless transformer. And 3225 is easily better than 4559. Although, as you say, it *is* a set rather than just a collection of cars or a locomotive. So I'd rank 4559 and (...) (25 years ago, 5-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)

| I have never had a sticker problem EXCEPT with #4556, the small red train station. Some of the stickers were curling up off the backing when I opened the box, and they have continued to curl up from the elements they were applied to. I wonder if (...)

I've had a similar problem with a 3225 too - at first I thought that the box had been returned to the shop after someon had opened it and pulled the stickers off the backing. They seem to stay on the elements OK (...) (25 years ago, 5-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)

| (...) 3225 is not a set it's a train - it deserves it's own category along with 4558 and 4565. A set in the model train world is something that can operate just using the components in the package.
