KursadA Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 Half of the amount that I allocated to retail sale were preordered in the first 24 hours. When these are gone, I will need to disable preorders so I have enough to sell to the resellers. Thanks for your interest in this set - equally comprehensive new sets like the B-36 (now in 1/144, later 1/72) and the P-3 are on the way! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to think that my decals are like the kids in Garrison Keillor's (still hoping he can come back from the #metoo hell he has been banished to) Lake Wobegon where "every child is above average". But yeah - some of them are really above average, and the B-47 sheet looks like a Hall of Fame candidate so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 Folks, I just finished packing all orders with 72091 and they will be on their way to you when USPS picks them up this weekend. After the reseller orders are shipped in early December, it looks like the B-47 sheet will be almost sold out - making this one of the fastest selling sets I have ever released. Thanks for your interest, and I hope you like the decals when you receive them next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Don’t want to miss this one, got my order in! Thanks Kursad! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted December 4, 2021 Author Share Posted December 4, 2021 I think most of you have received the B-47 decals by now - let me know what you think and which option you intend to build! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Kursad, First glance, OUTSTANDING WORK! Simply beautiful and comprehensive sheet. My top two choices are: 509th BW with red arrow on the tail or 100th BW "State of New Hampshire." It's tough to decide. I like many of the other options also. I have (5) 1/144 B-47 kits, so I will add WB-47E, & RB-47H to these first two options as well. And one of the "Winners" when you release the 1/144 set. Thanks for making this decal, Kursad.

arg Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Wholeheartedly concur with Dutch - GREAT JOB! I'd like to do a 'line bird', so will likely do the "red arrow" version for some color. But also very tempted to do the Wright Air Development Center option with the red/yellow triangles. I live about 12 miles from Wright-Patterson AFB - formerly Wright Field - where this jet would have been stationed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Haven’t got mine yet! Figured it’s going out in the next mailing….But I’m eagerly awaiting it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Boyer Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Got mine! Man, that Cartograf outfit can print! Just look at those unit badges: very small and in perfect register! Haven't made up my mind on which one to do yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) On second thought, when you print the 1/144 sheet. I will definitely do Jimmy Stewart's B-47B from "Strategic Air Command" to go along with his B-36D and the C-124 in 1/144 scale.

Spruemeister Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Still waiting on them to clear the Omaha facility and take its place on the covered freight wagon heading west. I’ve begun fitting a Pavla resin cockpit into the kit, which is not going real well. It will be finished in the GE Speed Run markings. Rick L. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) Still waiting on mine as well. I have plans to build RB-47H "4296" and then will need to source a second kit to build "2134" - "City of Lincoln" from the 307BW. Once the 1/144 sheet comes out, I'll need several as I have a huge stash of B-47 kits in the pile. Edited December 5, 2021 by Drifterdon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MarkN Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Still waiting on mine, too. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gator52 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Got mine today; really seems like I should frame it instead of cutting it up…the TB-47B and movie B-47 are probably my favorites…I’ll do one in 1/72 and the other in 1/144. Thanks for producing this spectacularly comprehensive set! Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spruemeister Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Mine have arrived. Decal sheet of the year. Rick L. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Let's face it folks, every marking on the sheet is a "winner," not just the three SAC Competition marked ones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ghostbase Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Mine arrived today from Hannants, the re-seller based in the UK. An absolute work of art, up there with the Caracal B-58 decals that were released a few years ago. Now I know why I have kept a Hasegawa B-47 kit in the stash for upwards of 40 years! Thank you for option 3 B-47E 52-0344 which was deployed to the UK in 1959. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
