mclents Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 For those that are decal junkies, Mike West ofLone Star Models now has up on his sitea pre-order for some 1/48th decals for the early P-47s. I've been bugging him about them since he first talked about them ages ago, but then I'm sort of a decal and P-47 junkie. For those that don't know, the sheets gonna have 22 different planes represented. I emailed Mike about it and the skinny is that it's pretty expensive to get them printed, so he's trying to offset some of his expense by having a pre-sale on them for $10. Looks like the sheet will run $20 when it's released. It's printed by Microscale so you know the quality will be top notch. For 10 bucks guys, that's less than 50 cents a plane. I don't know, but it sounds like a hell of deal to me. I pre-ordered. go here to see what you get, and if you like, contact Mike-http://lonestarmodels.com/Decals.html. McLents PS- I am not an affiliated with Mike, but have bought quite a few of his items and never been disappointed. Just a satisfied customer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mclents Posted October 25, 2011 Author Share Posted October 25, 2011 Just heard, Mike of LSM is getting the sheet done. Good news for us 47 nuts. Looks like about a run of 250 sheets cause of cost so don't wait too long to get them. I found out he's also doing his World Series sale again cause the Rangers are in it. 30% off but I think that ends this coming Sunday (Oct. 30) so if there's somthing your wantin' now may be the time.............
