X-Rated Decal Set

Post by ggionet »

Purchased a Trumpeter 1:32 P47-D Razorback Fighter and found that the decals had a portion blacked out with black permanent marker and the instructons for the installation of the decals had a small piece of white paper glued over the view of the installation of that decal. Gotta belive it is a nudie but the decal is uselly in this form. Anyone know where I can get an un-censored version?

I have just done a little bit of research on this one and I believe the censored decal is actually a Donald Duck with his tail shot off. I suspect that it was actually Disney rights lawyers that are the cause of it being censored. However if you are interested in the more 'artistic' :oops: variety of nose art then there is a company called Kits World who do a large range of interesting decals in most scales. the page for the P-47D is here; http://www.kitsworld.co.uk/index.php?CATEGORY=4&SUB=9 Worth checking out in my opinion. :th:
