First Look
Lifelike Decals from Japan turns out some colorful and nicely printed subjects. In this set, we have three distinctive P-47 Thunderbolts that will definitely compliment the Tamiya 1/72 P-47 kits. This set addresses a camouflaged and a bare metal Razorback as well as a bare metal Bubbletop.
This decal set provides markings for three aircraft:
- P-47D-1-RE, 42-7945, 334 FS/4 FG, QP-D, Spring 1943, 'Plainheld'
- P-47D-25-RE, 42-26628, 62 FS/56 FG, LM-C, Jul 1944, 'Rozzie Geth II'
- P-47D-15-RE, 42-76165,83 FS/78 FG,HL-C, Jan 1945
As you can see in the decal image, this set comes complete with a full set of national markings, distinctive unit markings, and a wealth of maintenance stencils. If you're looking for a colorful alternative that isn't from the mainstream Superscale/Eagle Strike/Aeromaster line-up, here is a nice way to be different!
You can purchase these decals directly from Lifelike Decals. My sincere thanks to Lifelike Decals for this review sample!
