Interesting. I used their flags (transfers) before, so I'm wondering about these and the differences in their final appearance.

What are the physical dimensions of the flags?

I'm still looking for any info on what these new fabric texture things are, and how they are applied. But so far I can't find anything on the web, and there's no application info on the Archer website. Has anyone actually used these new things and is willing to share info?

How come I couldn't find that? . Thanks Carlos, that link explains a lot! But it makes me shudder when thinking of the tiny rank patches they offer...

So, if they're "not decals, dry transfers, paper, vinyl stickers or printed fabric", just what are they? Either way they are clearly useful as I was growing tired of decals on thin lead foil.
