I know I can't be the only one who's bought a secondhand vehicle and been totally bewildered by the horrible sticker applications.
Lets see your worst finds.
Can you do worse that this Conquest shell I got at a thrift store?

lol, it looks worried and confused. "Did I fill up before taking off? I just can't remember. I hope I have enough fuel to reach my destination."

Well, at least he got the Stars and Bars and the kill markings on the side of the fuselage correct.

I've noticed this mostly with SkyStrikers and Conquests.

Holy crap. That's awesome; I wish I had been friends with the kid who did that. It's like outsider art.

I bought a vehicle off of eBay a couple of years ago that warranted consideration. Unfortunately, photos are not a possibility: I foolishly removed the stickers for customizing purposes. Considering how easy it would have been to find another, I should have kept that one in the condition I received it. It was a vintage Stinger, and the stickers were applied upside down. As in, all of them: logos, Cobra symbols, and even the ones with text. Making it even stranger was that they had clearly been applied very carefully: they were remarkably straight and, from what I remember, in the proper places; just oriented incorrectly. I don't know if it was done for fun or as an honest mistake, but either way it was kind of cool.

Lol... Man... That looks like it was done by a spiteful older brother who wanted to go out and play, but had to help Timmy put together his birthday present first.

Looking at this makes me feel bad for the kid who owned it. Something was not right in that house.

I need to take pics of the Parasite I picked up on ebay years ago with Sharpie graphitti of anarchy and KKK stuff.

I don't recall ever having anything as close to as bad as that Conquest. You win.

I was really hoping somone would have somethign horrible to show. FWIW, this is the 2008 (ish) Conquest, the stickers have a clearlayer over them and I tried a few diffent times, with and without heat, to remove them so they could be re-used on a spy troops Conquest I also just got, but the layers seperate, destroying the sticker.

I don't know that ANYTHING could compete with Derpy the Conquest there... I thought this Sky Striker was a bit off... but I'm super happy there are no stickers on the bottom so it'll be easy to clean and re-sticker.
