    Anyone have a scan of NORDOR instructions?

    Hey all!

    Was fortunate enough to find a Nordor in good shape, it even came with the stickers still on the sheet.

    No instructions, though... Wondering if any of you have a scan of the instructions or can point me towards one so I can apply these properly and get this thing looking sharp?

    Thanks!!

    Thanks for that, but are there more pages to the scan? Specifically looking for the page that says where the stickers go...

    Found this image on a repo sticker listing on eBay. It's the only pic and a bit obscured, but it's a start.

    Oh, and before you take the stickers off the sheet, you MUST scan them in high quality. Not only for yourself as spare, but for everyone's sake. We can add them to the .org library (if it ever comes back). They are 35 year old stickers that are hard to come by.

    I would second that - please do scan them!

    That image helps, thanks!!

    And yeah, for sure... I can scan the sheet. Lemme figure out how to scan it high-quality since I only have a super basic scanner/printer. Total scanning noob here. ^_^


    [EDIT] Ok, I have a scan now but it's too large to post here. Where/who should I send it to?

    Depending on how large, you could upload to imgur and post a link here? They don't require a login to do that

    Ok, so I have it as a larger PDF but I did manage to convert it to JPG and upload to imgur, as suggested. LMK if this image is good enough quality!

    I stand ready with another $500 for this Mattel kickstarter stretch goal!!!

    - - - Updated - - -

    Thanks again for sharing this, it's the most accurate thing I've seen so far and it'll get me very close... I can probably figure the rest out from here.

    Ironically, I thought for sure that PixelDan's MOTU book might be a good resource also, but it was easy to see that the Nordor pictured there has more than a few stickers mis-applied. = (

    Okay, an update!

    Thanks to the super-valuable image found by Thrillhouse (thanks again!!!) I was able to place almost all of the stickers, and it took just a little more legwork to finish it off.

    My Nordor is now looking pretty ace! And really, what a cool playset. Much, much neater than it appears in pics.


    A couple things:

    1> I found that stickers #3 and #4 worked better if their positions were switched. The contours of the precut lines made more sense to me with #3 on the left side of the central dais area (if you're looking directly at it while it's open) and #4 on the right, but YMMV.

    2> Stickers #10 & #11 were not shown on the image and I couldn't see a place for them, but when I went back to PixelDan's book, it showed those stickers placed on the armrests of Skeletor's throne (maybe it's Flogg's throne?? Haha!) and that makes perfect sense.

    So, between those two sources, every sticker can be placed correctly!

    Thanks a million to everybody who chipped in, y'all are the best! And if anyone would like reference pics of my now-finished Nordor, I'm happy to provide, JLMK!

    Cheers!

    EDIT: apparently I hit my quota for images? I have two more for the rest of the sticker placements... Not sure how to post them here, so I put them up on an unlisted page at my site:

    It looks like they have imprisoned Mike Wazowski!
