This is welcome news, but I really Really REALLY wish someone would release a C model - preferably Tamiya.

Yes. Easy to see. The top edge of the bars flanking the roundel is supposed to be touching the tips of the outstretched ‘arms’ of the star. You can clearly see it isn’t on the C-17. The bars are centered on the circle.
I will be over at the 911th hangar in two weeks. The guy at work who's a loadmaster there says it was painted there. I will track the painter down. Interested to see what template he used. I'll tell him it's wrong.....

Yes in the picture of the real aircraft with the "invasion stripes." Since the insignia is non standard for this special commemorative scheme, it is forgivable when you figure that the old standard proportions of the star and bar are long forgotten. Buckmeister is correct that the bar should be slightly above center of the circle, something not many of us modelers have even noticed. Now, it will be interesting to see if some decal manufacturer doing this exact aircraft will make it "wrong" accurately!😁
Are they really that Mil-spec? I have found no official reference for this. You're saying the paint shop (no idea where it is) got the invasions stripe roundel wrong?

In the picture?

I was leaving work today, PIT air traffic control tower, and saw the 911th C-17 in the pattern. It's the one with invasion stripes...
I hope the Kinetic 1/72 is out soon, this would look amazing....

To me, the EP-3 with no MAD boom looks castrated. This is also a placeholder to keep these sheets alive!
😄
Up to buying 6 sheets now!
-
As long as the site still says coming soon and I didn't miss these......
-
I work at the airport in ATC where these still fly and would like to do a few models. Please let me know what you have.
-
Hmm, this seems like this is one of those kits that you stumble upon that was discontinued last year and can't find anymore....I should grab 2 now before I'm in the discontinued situation!
-
Open box is ok, please let me know what you have.
-
I'll take the ZOTZ 32024...please give me you PP info.

Hello Kursad, I have a suggestion for your website.
Whenever you have a new release, especially like the new P-3 (Ima need 4 of those) sheet coming out I'm pretty eager to secure my sheets as I know they will sell out. I rush over to the website to see if they're available but typically there are a ton of sold old sheets pictured. I'm pretty sure I'm going to miss the sheet I want because it's a lot to look through and I'm not smart enough to sort through the sold out sheets. I initially thought "why couldn't the sold out sheets be deleted from the website".....but then I thought that a lot of people may get to your site on a search. If they could find what they had searched for on google then they'd have a good starting point to start looking on the secondary market.
Would it be possible to put your sold out sheets on an archive page? This would allow all your new and currently available sheets to be more easily found but still have all your historical work with older sheets be in a place for people to look through.
Humbly submitted....

Please let me know what you have.

I haven't seen what the retail price is going to be.....is $70 from Lucky a bit of a discount?

He actually posted that it's a June release. Why would you badger a one man show putting out a product you can't get anywhere else? I too want the Horsham Orions (my grandparents lived there and I spent hundreds of hours on that fence). VP-66 and VP-64 are on the same sheet, what are the chances of that?! Why post this? If I were Kursad I would say, "have a go at the decal business bro" and ban you from buying any. If he's nicer than me you'll get some in June, like he posted......FFS
