Entire thing stuck together and ripped. What a total waste of money. I have not read one positive comment on this site. How do they stay in business?

It looked great but started to fall with in the first day. after reapplying several times we found it on the floor stuck to itself. Has anyone found a trick to make it stick?

Why not tell buyers that including me before you have us spend alot of money. I would be happy if i could get my money back. It has been several months and I know they will not offer me that.

I just I I gave my son a packers life size Aaron Rodgers fathead and in a couple hours it fell off the wall and stuck to itself. I am very disappointed in this product. we should all stick together and make them refund our money and maybe they will make a better product. They suck big time. I will never buy another. Very Dissatified.

I had to take the Lionel Messi Fathead to a sign shop!!! It cost me $210 to have it mounted on PVC and then trimmed. The owner of the sign shop told me that he contacted Fatheads customer support to ask a few questions and they were USELESS!!!! He said that as careful as he was, when he used the squeegie on it, some of the ink came off!!! They do NOT laminate the decals. They simply print them on poor quality material. The slightest hit to it, removes the ink. I was forced to take it to the sign shop as the numerous reviews I read AFTER I bought it, said that they fell off the wall just hours after applying it!!! FLAT WALLS??? Who has flat walls these days??? AND….. this fact is mentioned in fine print and NOT clear to the consumer. NEVER again!!!!

What normal person spends $100 on something that doesnt last 30 minutes and doesnt try and get their issue resolved?

I am planning to move and was on this site to hopefully find info on how to move it… my impression is this is not possible.

I guess the fathead people are Yankee fans.

Each went up easily. At first it wanted to come down but we followed the instructions and used the rubbing tool to flatten it down a few times. They have stayed up great ever since. We even moved them to a different wall after rearranging and they still stay up great. In fact, I came on here to find out how to take them down and transport them to a different house. Any ideas? I no longer have the original paper they came on.
