Jin_Kune_Do Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 Can anyone please post some pictures of a fully decorated 1/48 with Yamato Stickers and one with Takatoys Stickers? I would really like to see the difference, so i can i can decided, if i sould remove all the stickers on my already decalled 1/48s and invest money on sticker sheets from Takatoys. Thanks. -Jin Quote
UN Spacy Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I would also like to see the comparison pics (if there are any). I have two 1/48's (Focker and Hikky) and one of them is stickerless (Focker). I only applied one or two stickers on the Hikky, since I already started I guess I'll finish applying the rest of the Yammie stickers. Quote
Hurin Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I suppose it's possible that my review of the the Takatoys stickers prompted this request for pictures of Yamato and Takatoys stickers side-by-side. But just in case, here are pictures of the Takatoys stickers applied. Sorry that I can't provide any direct comparisons to the Yamato stickers. I don't wanna ruin my pristine sheets. And, I'm not sure the difference will be readily apparent via digital pictures. My advice. . . buy one sheet and just give 'em a try. just replace a couple stickers with the Takatoys version. And, of course, let us know how you feel! H Quote
vf1_soulja Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Don't think... Get 'em. I would use this analogy: Comparing Takatoys and Yamato stickers is like comparing the Yamato 1/48 valk and Toynami's MPC. There's no question which is far superior. You've already spent $120+ to buy the toy, spend a little more to make it PURDY!!! Quote
Commander McBride Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 There's really no comparison. I've seen them in real life, and they just look awesome. I need a set myself, for my Low Viz. Quote
aarbain Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Are the Takatoys stickers cut to fit properly? I had to cut & resize the Yamato stickers to get them to fit properly. e.g. the control panel & nose-cone radar stickers. That's my only grouse with Yamato stickers. ~~Ã~~ Quote
Gyges Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 The TakaToys stickers are not cut improperly, insofar as they are not cut at all. Quote
Omni Existence Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 (edited) I finally got to dress up my FP's for my soon to come Low Vis. The color coded Skull emblems fit the round panel on the Boosters perfectly (talking about the Yammie stickers), unfortunately, they kinda goofed on the Kite emblem. The kite emblem itself fits, but there's a transparent excess around the Kite emblem which goes outside of the circular panel that has to be cut off. That really bites! I hope Yamato addresses this on any possible 2nd or 3rd release of the FP's. Edited September 23, 2003 by Omni Existence Quote
