I'm concerned over these sticker sheets as they have a glossy look and feel compared to the matt, more paper like feel I was expecting.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Carl

I'm no expert and it's hard to tell without having them in hand so I won't vote but if it's any help the blue Tie Fighter and Vader Tie Fighter that I have do not have shiny stickers, as you say they are more of a satin/matt sort of finish. Doesn't mean to say the Interceptor ones aren't shiny but I don't have one. Sure someone has and will chime in.
 
I've compared my original childhood d/v tie and a tie inter that I picked up in the 90's which is original due to the wear and although a different pattern both have the dull shine, I would not say high gloss but both have the same amount of dull sheen in the light, if that helps
 
I've just been sent photos of a known, genuine sticker sheet and whilst it is glossy to an extent there are no white lines outlining the edge of the stickers, just the grey pattern cut straight through.
Would there be two types of sticker sheet?

Compared to these and the pics I was provided they are defo repro and going back for a refund.

Thank you everyone.
 
Here's a set a regretfully sold a while back - not sure if they'll change your mind but they may help

Cheers Andy, they match the other known legit example from Simon, the biggest tell is that as well as the lack of white lines at the edges a genuine set has only two sheets, not three.
