Sorry but this is old news, Nige (Lampie) reviewed these back in November 2009 on P-47 Heaven. But they do look very nice and I will be getting a set when I finally get my 1/24 Jug Link to Review Link to thread What should be of note is that Nige was involved in the decal for Major Chester Van Ettens "Look No Hands"

Sometimes news is so good its worth telling more than once Just for the record, I did the majority of research for 5 of the options presented on the "Silver Screen Jugs" sheet and am duly credited on the profile page. I have had no involvement in any decals for Major Van Ettens "Look No Hands" at this moment in time. Please, if anyone feels the need to advertise my involvement with any decal or kit manufacturers projects ( something I don't do myself in the forums unless prompted), then at least get the facts right.

Sorry Nige was was getting myself confused with the options in the sheet for Miss Fire/Rozzie Geth II as i recall the discussions about the background colour. Tim - Don't worry about it, probably just a slow news day
