This is orders of magnitude better than those weird colors on the Target EG. Grats on the custom waterslides! It's something I've been interested in for a while but never followed through on. You know, like most of my hobby plans. >_>

Better than the American Gundam from G-Gundam! Lol
Looking good!
How did you print the water slides?
Water slide decal paper generally comes in two varieties, intended for either laser or inkjet printers. With laser printer decal paper, which is what I used, just treat it as a photo (ie select photo or cardstock as the paper type and increase the DPI if you can), and as soon as it comes out of the printer you can cut the decal out and apply it. Inkjet, on the other hand, is supposed to require a clear coat after printing in order to prevent the ink from running when you soak the decal.
