Just for the record, I hate stickers. In the last month I put together
C-3P0, the stormtrooper and the ucs x-wing and I have never seen so many
stickers in my life. I am anti-sticker from now on.
I have the wrinkling sticker problem on the feet also. Just curious does any
one else have a problem with the side window stickers on the ucs x-wing? The
tips keep wanting to pop off on mine, I may need to see if I can get more
sent to me as well.
