folkwally Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 A good friend of mine has discovered that her father and uncle both crewed the 'Ton Up' Lancaster 'Uncle Joe'. I'd really like to make her a model of this aircraft but I'm having trouble sourcing the decals. I believe they were made by Tally Ho! under the reference number 72 042. Anyone out there have a set or know where I could get them? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck1945 Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 No promises, but I may have those. Unfortunately my decal stash and I are currently about 75 mile apart and I wont be able to check until late next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
folkwally Posted December 16, 2016 Author Share Posted December 16, 2016 If you do have them Chuck that would be great. I've managed to source the decals for 'Uncle Joe Again' which I believe was the replacement aircraft as it has the same call sign but I would still like to build the original.

folkwally Posted December 24, 2016 Author Share Posted December 24, 2016 Hi Chuck, did you have any luck finding the decals? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck1945 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Yes, I was reasonably certain I had a Tally Ho Lancaster sheet, wasn't sure if it was the correct one. I do have the 'Uncle Joe' decal sheet and have enough other Lancaster decal sheets to satisfy any Lanc building urge I may ever have. I am literally out in the snowy woods for Christmas/New Year but I will bring the decal sheet back to civilization Jan 1 or 2 and get an estimate for postage then Chuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites
folkwally Posted December 25, 2016 Author Share Posted December 25, 2016 That's absolutely great Chuck. Do you have a PayPal account? If so I'll send you the cost of the decals and the postage. A very merry Christmas to you. Sounds like you have the weather for it. Many thanks and regards. Ross Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck1945 Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 I'll let you know, and yes, I do have a PayPal account. I'll send you a PM when I get back to include costs and address Quote Link to post Share on other sites
folkwally Posted December 26, 2016 Author Share Posted December 26, 2016 Great, I look forward to hearing from you. Turns out 'Uncle Joe Again' is a bit of a red herring as, in spite of having the same squadron I.D. it was a different crew. Regards Ross Quote Link to post Share on other sites
folkwally Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Presented my model of 'Uncle Joe' to my friend last night. She was really pleased. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chuck1945 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Ross, 'Uncle Joe' looks great. Glad I was able to help you complete the project Quote Link to post Share on other sites
