1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) Sorry if this has been posted about before, but I couldn't find it. There are supposed to be stickered versions of the black and the blue classic spacemen (Black, Blue). Nobody I've spoken to is 100% sure where these come from, or why they were made. Does anyone have any info about these? In addition, does anybody know why there is no yellow stickered fig? And speaking of this, any tips on getting the red and the white stickered spacemen in pristine conditions? Edited August 8, 2011 by johnnyvgoode Quote

The bricklink database isn't always 100% accurate, the original entry is probably based on someone finding a custom. Any you have seen would be customs, in fact I have custom classic space men in five colours they never appeared in. It's very hard to find quality versions of the red and white ones, the red ones fade (even on an unused untouched sticker sheet) and the white ones get dirty very easily. Quote
1980-Something-Space-Guy Posted August 8, 2011 Author Posted August 8, 2011 The black, blue and yellow don't exist in sticker form. I'm not sure... I even contacted a guy on BL who has a huge Classic Space collection and told me had found one in a set and knew it was authentic; he just couldn't remember where from. I do think it is suspicious that nobody seems to know for sure where, if authentic, these figs come from and why. Quote
Peppermint_M Posted August 9, 2011 Posted August 9, 2011 I think there may have been some form of book with stickers once upon a time. I'll et back to you after some research! Quote

Thanks! That's one of the strongest theories there are... Do let me know about your research please! Quote
