(...) I've been pretty impressed by LEGO stickers. They are made of a pretty rugged paper and I have always found that if a sticker was stuck on well (if not in quite the right position), that you can pretty much always lift it and re-apply it (...)

I noticed that a portion of the sticker was off the piece, so I tried to gently pull that part up. Luckily, it came right up without any damage whatsoever.
