raku Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hello all, for a next project I am urgently looking for a decal set for the Royal Navy Phantoms FG1 in 1/48 scale. Does anyone know if and where the decal set from Model Alliance Decals No. 48126 is still available. I hope someone can help me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seaknight Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hi Raku, Model Alliance Decals are hard to find, but from time to time are some offers on eBay, currently not😌 Maybe an alternate Decal Set will help you for your next project: - Xtradecal X48186 (XV590 001/R892 NAS HMS Ark Royal with Anniversary markings on nose and as cross decked with USS Saratoga 1978) - HobbyDecal AL48007V1 Phantom FG.1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Brown Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Avoid the Aeromaster “Smokers” sheet with XV590. The red parts of the decals were so brittle they broke up when I tried to apply them. I spent a year looking for a replacement sheet and had the same results when I finally found one. I ended up finding a kind soul who traded his 30 year old kit decals. Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites

raku Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 Hi all, meanwhile i've found a vendor in Poland (plastmodel.com) who deals the HobbyDecal sheet for the FAA Phantoms. Looking great. Tomorrow it will be in my lettercase. Thanks a lot for your help. Best regards from Germany Quote Link to post Share on other sites
