So with the AM figs I picked up so far I've had minor issues with certain pieces curling up on me that it's so annoying. Does this sound familiar? So I have to choose to either play the rub down game with those certain pieces or remove it (and matching piece perhaps) completely realizing that it's not so bad with out it. So anyone else have these issues and if so a easy solution for them? Look forward to the feedback from all.

I have taken to painting the areas to look like the stickers and adding some select paint apps on the AMs. Some come out better than others but I like the look in the end. If I remember I will try and take some pictures of the ones I have done when I get home.

Use a wee bit of glue on the corners of your peeling stickers (obviously putting it under the sticker and not on top of it). I bought G1 Top Spin a little over a year ago (at a antique store) and a sticker fell off on me just a few months ago. A bit of glue fixed it right as rain.
I used craft glue (the sort used in scrap books) since it was the only thing available at the time but I'm sure there are better adhesives out there.

Not only the Arms micron. The Tomy Takara version of Soundwave Prime, his dang knee cap labels keep unfurling too.

Kind of a mixed bag for me. The stickers do hold, but the edges peel up and look terrible. They remind me of G1 stickers, after 20 years of horrible care, actually. And they're brand new.
I can't wait for Reprolabels to crank out a set for each Arms Micron figure that needs just the stock stickers...
