Zotz Decals 1/32
P-47 Razorback Thunderbolts in the ETO

Zotz is back with another nice set of decals for the P-47D Razorback Thunderbolt. These are 1/32 scale for the Trumpeter Razorback kit released late last year or the anticipated Hasegawa version. In this release, Zotz has pulled two colorful examples out of the European Theater of Operations (ETO).

The decal set comes on three sheets of standard decals, plus a smaller sheet with the nose art of Rowland's aircraft. As usual, the set also comes with a nice color-printed color profile to help with painting and decal placement.

This decal set provides markings for two examples:

• P-47D-10, 42-75207, 62 FS/56 FG, Halesworth, 1944, 'Rozzie Geth'/'Boche Buster', as flown by Lt. Fred Christensen
• P-47D-1, 42-7377, 61 FS/56 FG,Halesworth, 1943, 'In the Mood', as flown by Capt. Gerald Johnson

While there are maintenance stencils for one aircraft, there are national markings and distinctive markings enough to build both aircraft.

This set is definitely recommended!

My sincere thanks to Zotz for this review sample!
