david sMiGielski Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 (edited) I ordered El Presidente's Fancy Fishbeds sheet as soon as if became available last week and it arrived in my mailbox this afternoon. Overall, this is a great first release. The subjects are rare, the instruction booklet is very well done, and the decals are very well made. I think the only quibble I have is a lack of starboard camo diagrams. My biggest issue now is deciding what scheme to build first. Personally, I'm excited to see a company tackling some of these subjects (I mean, come on, who would have thought to do a Fishbed from Madagascar?) and I'm looking forward to their future releases, hopefully in 1/48.

pastafarian Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 I mean, come on, who would have thought to do a Fishbed from Madagascar? Do they include a penguins for pilots? Sorry, I've got a 3 year old What was shipping for those? I ordered a couple of sheets from Aviationmegastore a couple years ago and it was around $20. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
david sMiGielski Posted September 28, 2008 Author Share Posted September 28, 2008 Ha! That's one of my daughter's favorite movies (Just smile and wave boys, smile and wave). From Germany to the US was $24 total. http://www.el-presidente-decals.com/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FrancLEsc Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Those MiG-21s look awesome. I am also hoping for 1/48 scale decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fabe Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Hi folks. You will be glad to hear that future sheets will always have three-side views (if all sides are known). Unfortunately the MiG-21 instructions are full of typos, by accident I sent in an old, not yet corrected version. But well that's life. If you have any ideas for improvements just let me know!

LOL I just imagined a corpulent, exhausted-looking, mercenary penguin with a cigarette in his mouth going to the local brothel after flying some sorties against rebels Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JackMan Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Did any of you guys have a problem with the on-line ordering at El Presidente? I keep getting a "Error: Please select another Shipping Method." message during the checkout stage. Just tried again today. I'm wondering if the problem lies with my own webpage settings. But I can still log in and place decals into my Cart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A friend of mine helped me with the web site, but he is currently away. When he's back we willt try to debug the whole thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
