Most of the stickers were placed incorrectly but was able to save
them using the hair dryer method to warm them up then scraped em
off , they were like brand new again and then Placed into the correct
spots ,no pealing or anything. Only missing 2 stickers #10 and #15 ,

Tons of marker and crayon marks , Of course they were removed 100%
by rubbing them off with a regular pencil eraser.

Happy with the final results even though it cost me a arm and a leg.
Fun to do and Totally worth it.

Awesome job, man!! Technodrome looks fantastic. Love how you managed to get 2 connection bridges for the inside.

Mine's 99% complete, just need to get the brain scrambler and replace the black spiked door (mine won't stay shut).

I have one extra part , happens to be a brain scrambler sewer cover , without a rubber band but in great condition. Send me 3 bucks on paypal and i will give it to you for free , just pay shipping. Deal?
