Stampeed Valkyrie Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Sup all. Looking for the MW member if he is still around who did the run on the UN SPACY vinyl window decals. My window decal as served me faithfully on 2 cars and has gone from white/red to white/pink to white/white all thanks to the sun. I am assuming at least one "old timer" MW member remembers this and I can't find it in the archive posts. Thanks for your help. On a side note MW is looking different but still going strong I see.

VALKYRIE-EXCHANGE.COM Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I think the member Axelay was the one who created it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXO Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I have a vinyl cutter. PM me for details. That reminds me I gotta replace my decals too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axelay Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Wow! It's a funny thing that I was just thinking the other day about doing a new run of these, and here I see this thread. Mine has been on my car for a whopping 5 years, and it has indeed started to fade. It really only started noticeably fading in the past 6 months or so, which is pretty amazing for something which has been in the sun every single day. (I don't have a garage.) My car recently had to have its front windshield replaced, and I realized that I also lost my one-of-a-kind custom UN Spacy base pass decal as well, so I may consider getting that project back out again. If y'all will bear with me, I will start seeing what I need to do to get things off the ground again. I have all of the templates, but I'm not sure if the graphics shop I originally used is still in operation. I've also just started a new school year as network administrator, so it may be a few days before I have a chance to catch my breath long enough to start making phone calls. Please PM me if you need to stay in contact about this, and keep an eye on the Fan Works and For Sale sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axelay Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Finally got around to contacting the shop which did the original run of the decals. They are working up a quote for me for either 25 or 50 more. I should have detailed information by Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eriku Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I have one of the originals and it hasn't faded yet - was on my car from 2003 to May of this year. Came off my old car nicely but I haven't put it on my new car yet. It's one of my favorite pieces of Macross memorobilia so I'm considering keeping it in my photo album rather than putting it on my new car where it will eventually fade away. That said, I'd be interested in a new one. That way I can archive the original (which had the same exact life span as my old car) and put a new one on my new car!

Axelay Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 Good news! Production of a new batch of 50 of these decals is underway as of this morning! I was able to get in contact with the very same shop which did the first run. They had moved to a different city, but it's not too terribly far away from where I live. I should have these new decals in hand by Monday (September 19th) of next week. Once I get a new one placed on my own car, I will take some photos and put up a thread about it in the appropriate sections. It's been almost 6 years since I did the first batch, and mine is only just starting to fade as of this year. I have been extremely impressed with the quality of this shop's work. Also, once upon a time, I also had a custom parking pass decal created by the same shop. I might consider resurrecting that project if enough interest is generated.
