Doesn’t seem to be any company’s out there offering them for sale, some cheap iron-on Jobie’s for sale on flea-Bay 😕
Why not print your own using xpres colour trans paper or similar ? Works out about £1 per A4 sheet.
Looks as if that’s what this peeps doing:

Because the transfers that are ready printed are screen printed plastisol.
the ones from xpres are quite nasty actually, I bought a box of 100 sheets £100 + vat
feel really stiff and plasticky, targets are better and thinner.
But unless you buy the plastisol ones you are always going to have the old cant do anything other than a solid block, you can contour cut them but you cant get individual letters or fine detail printed unless you can match the garment colour exactly.
Those wrestling ones you showed are probably what were on about here but they are solid blocks, might be whats needed here but if you want fine lines or anything you cant.The magic touch have just bought out wow.7.1 paper, its a long and convoluted process but you can get the effect of a screen printed transfer you don’t have to weed, but at £125 a box + vat they aint cheap.

Very true about the "stiff & plasticky" feel. I’ve only really ever used it for logos and small photo jobs. Probably would be a bit OTT for full A4 images.
Never used Magic Touch to date, never really liked the quality of the samples they sent me a few years back.
Anybody purchased transfers from the states before?
