I've used them and think they look great. They can be a bit of a challenge to apply dry just because it's tricky to place them on the uneven surfaces of figures arms where needed. I've found using them wet with the supplied decal paper works really well without needing any glossing or setting solution. They take a little practice to get the hang of, but once you do, I think the results are well worth it.
Just my 2 cents worth.

I use them wet as well, transferring them to clear decal paper and then applying. I would make sure that you burnish them down well though.
