Hello,
With all the headaches and going thru this and that, I finally got me a reproduced 100 Yen Sticker for the Astro and New Astro City Candy Cabinets.
Take a look
I would say its about 99% close match to the original NOS sticker.
I am very picky and very meticulous about these things and even I am pretty impressed with the reproduction.
Yes these REPRODUCTIONS are actual plastic/polycarbonite stickers, kinda like credit cards and NOT Vinyl or paper.
They even use the same 3M adhesive as the original.
The black area even has the glittery look just like the original.
Dimensions/size exactly the same as the original.
If I had any gripes about these REPRODUCTIONS, it would maybe be that the green and the silver are not as dark as the original but the difference is very minimal and not everyone will see it but the match is close.
Also there may be a slight differentiation in the thickness of the letters and spacing on some letters on the INSERT COIN font which is very minimal. I may try to remedy this font issue if I can.
In the pictures below, the top left one is a NOS Sticker I gotten a while back and the one on the right is a reproduction with its protective layer removed and the one on the bottom is a reproduction with its protective plastic layer still intact.
I did it just for comparision.
Let me know what you think and if you would be interested in these REPRODUCTIONS.
If I decide on selling em I will price it lower than what I purchased a NOS sticker a while back but it will not be cheap like a vinyl sticker.
If I can generate enough interest I will take emails and make a list.
Thanks for looking.
