    :Welcome:.. gimme a day or two and I will see if I have any left. I bought some from a member (who might have some) and MAYBE I will come across some. I don't remember who I got them from. If I don't find mine I will try a search..

    Seth Roberts was selling the stickers. He goes by littleredcomet on here. He is never on here anymore.

    I will email him and see if he still has them.
