Those stickers bugged me quite a bit as well. The canopy wasn't
too bad, but I knew I was going to take the set apart and didn't want
to put on any of the stickers that spanned multiple parts then ruin
them when I took it down.. I did, however think they would make the
set look better
Here is how I solved the problem. I scanned those particular
stickers, printed them on Photo paper then laminated them. Next I cut
them out, and adhered them to the model with double sided tape (3m
removable Double stick) On teardown day I peeled them right off and
put them in an envelope for the next time. That method will only work
for fairly flat stickers, however because the photo paper is quite
thick and probably wouldn't conform well.
