FirstLook       

Star Decals from Sweden has been busy lately with a batch of new 1:72 scale releases.

The decal sheets are printed in perfect register. They have a satin finish but sit down on the surface of the model very well. I have used Star Decals on many project and they have always behaved well for me.

All of these Star Decals releases are packed in a resealable plastic bag and feature a single folded A4 page of multi-view instructions. Each subject is illustrated in colour. Scrap views and notes are offered where necessary.  The instruction sheet also has a helpful number map for the decal sheet.

Each of the sheets costs USD$7.00 plus USD$3.00 shipping per order.

They are available online from Star Decals www.star-decals.net  and model retailers worldwide.
