Great vid, but are all of those separate stickers for each of the cargo containers?

By my count, that's 126 stickers just for the containers... Yikes!

That's a lot of stickers. They have the ability to print the edge of plates like for the Minecraft sets.

Pretty awesome ship. I wish this was coming out in December because this would have been a cool Christmas present for my dad as he was chief engineer on these cargo ships.

A weird set to release to me, but I guess they sell well.

It's a real bummer if it is indeed 126 stickers. I would just add the ones on the outer walls.

I didn't pay attention to the fact that they were all stickers when I first looked at the set. That is a crazy amount of stickers to have to apply.

I've counted 138 stickers. Ridiculous.
