1/72 V-22 Osprey White Prototype Decal Source?

The Aeroguide Special V-22 Osprey Bell-Boeing Tilt-Rotor(1990) reference book has photos of BuNo 3911 through BuNo 3914 in the White/ Day-Glo Orange, Initial Roll-out, and US Marines camouflage paint schemes. To include photos of the early ejection seats. There are photos and 3-view drawings of 3914 camouflaged paint scheme. -
I have kit 2622 with clear parts and small chin windows. I'm building kit 503 which has the yellow tinted canopy and large chin windows. I may just have to get the fuselage and chin windows cast from clear epoxy.
-
Now that Hobbico is Bankrupt. Who is the contact in the U.S. for replacement parts for the 1/48 Italeri/Testors V-22 Osprey kit# 503? I need a clear set to build a white #1 with the American flag on the tail.
-
Has any else thought about building Testors kit #503 MV-22 prototype as a USMCR Osprey as delivered to HMM-774 "Wild Geese" circa 1980's in either white or black markings against a Marines Green fuselage? Since Hobbico went Bankrupt. I need a clear canopy and fuselage transparency. Is a replacement still available from Italeri?
-
Since Hobbico went Bankrupt. Where can one get replacement Canopy and fuselage glass for an original release Testors/Italeri MV-22 Prototype? It doesn't have to be a yellow tinted one. A clear set from a newer kit would suffice. I want to make a what-if VMM-774 (MQ) in '80's Marine Green with white markings.

I have a MIG-31 and it has raised panel lines. Needs resin ejection seats. Not up to today's standards, but for the price, it's buildable.
-
Doesn't Revell/ Monogram's PBY-5 have markings for the Atlantic scheme or am I confusing it with the Airfix kit?
-
I have a Sword 1/72 Northrop N-9MA flying wing kit #72001. It's missing the treaded tires. Does anyone know what I can use as replacements?

The original "Dragonfly" copter resembles the AH-1J SeaCobra with a AH-1G TAT turret in place of the AH-1W Cannon. The tail would have V-style twin rudders with a Vectored thrust unit instead of a NOTAR. It does seem to use the Whiskey's missiles.
-
Can I make a 80's G.I Joe XH-1 Dragonfly out of a 1/48 Fujimi AH-1J SeaCobra?

The MD-500 CHP #1643 has the clear canopy glass. CMK has photo-etch and a conversion for MH-6F/J #4276. SAM#31 October 2009 has photos and 1/48 drawings of the IAF MD-500 Defender.
-
So swapping the canopy glazing from the CHP kit would be the correct one?
-
Not sure if this ? has been asked before. Why is the canopy and door glass on the Academy MH-6 Orange? Shouldn't it be smoked gray?

El yay! El yay! Finally, decals for the AV-8A/C Harriers!
