had a little peek earlier didn't take the sticker completely off but just enough to see there was no Q Force sticker so im a bit puzzled do you think it was sold like this or the owner put these on instead of the Q Force logos? i was thinking about taking the AF stickers off but i realy dont know what to do now :-?

If you can get some replacement Q's from cobrastickers.com or the archives here it may be worth a shot. The added stickers here are the AF logos, red, white and blue stripes and the rear bullethole.

This is what the Q Force stickers look like from cobrastickers Image they are only $5.00 a sheet. Just checked Sealion decals are currently sold out at the moment.

not too sure about putting repro stickers on an original item it doesn't feel right feels a bit fraudulent, if it was a custom i was doing then i wouldn't have any worries

It's only fradulent if you intend to sell it on as a supposed original. These are for collectors to restore their treasures.

I didn't know they had branched out into full repro sheets! Brilliant!

I'm 99% sure they came unapplied, the piece in the archives must have been disassembled for the shoot. I think SteveD provided the sticker sheet scan, so he'd know.

Interesting to note that the instructions depict two guns and two aeriels in the top left corner, that's definitely an error.
