Still drawing it, along with several other sheets. Working directly with 401 on this, and the goal is to get everything 100% accurate.

MRC needs photos of two particular CH-53E helos.

Sherman, First, Happy Thanksgiving and good to see you posting again. Hope all is well on your end. Well, I'm glad they've finally come around to considering a rerelease of the kit. I was introduced to, and spoke to MRC's 'Brass' at the Nats in Omaha about the kit and they completely blew me off. Oh well. If there is anything I can help with again, drop me a line at : flyingleathernecks@att.net Dave -

Interesting. 162001 is the Echo that picked up Capt O'Grady -
No, you're not the only one. Literally every Marine I know believes it's a crock of $h!t. Every modeler I know also believes it's a crock of $h!t. However, US Law gave them the right and authority to trademark all of the terms and logos they have. To a degree, they do (at least the USMC T&L Office) believe they're a business, but not in a literal sense. All of the proceeds made from licensing literally funds their offices and goes toward Morale, Welfare and Recreation Services. For what it's worth, the fees are rather small at 2%. So, for every $20 decal sheet sold, they get 40

Unfortunately, it would literally take an act of Congress to change and with everything going on today, this isn't even worth fighting.

Deniz, All of the decals will fit the Tamiya kit, but the tail markings for the VMFA-121 and VMFA-211 options won't fit perfectly, simply because the tails in both kits are different. When I designed the artwork for these options, they were correctly proportioned to fit the Italeri kit. When on the Tamiya tail, they're a bit off. The update will have these markings correctly sized/proportioned to fit the Tamiya tails. Like sheet FL48023, I'll mail out the inserts to those that purchased FL48017 when they arrive from Microscale. Regarding the second sheet. We are cu
