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

why does TLC not put them in sealed bags?

While I am moaning about stickers, why can't TLC include spare sheets with
sets?

BTW 2  : Are the 4560 & 3225 the 2 worst train sets ever?

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 (...)
