Problem with stickers

[Rocketbilly]

I have recently assembled a copy of set 7065: Alien Mothership from the Alien Conquest theme. I applied the stickers to the model. The stickers on the 2x3 slopes near the cockpit slid off as I was applying pressure to them and pressing them down (as I always do with no problems) I thought this was more a problem with the texture of the plastic on the slopes themselves rather then the stickers; however after applying the rest of the stickers I noticed that the ones on the curved pieces were curling up at the edges.

I'd left one of the stickers intended for the slope pieces on the sticker sheet after I found out they weren't sticking and it feels a lot less sticky than stickers I've had before.

I know that stickers don't always stick to curved pieces but I've built other sets in the theme with stickers on the exact same pieces, such as the Tripod Invader and they've not peeled off yet and I've had that set for months.

Has anyone else had a set of stickers that don't really seem to stay on pieces in a set?

Well it is still a very new set so ask customer services. We always use outside quality vinyl for our reproduction stickers, but you never know what LEGO uses, seems they use different materials for different sets.

Strange. It's possible that the machines just didn't apply enough adhesive to that particular set of stickers, or maybe they were trying some new formula, or some other explanation. Either way, you can contact LEGO at LEGO customer support.
