Default Need some help.....

I was afraid of this, and once again, my worst fears were realized. After many years of setting in a closet and far to many moves, I finally got around to finishing my Galactic Pirates Patrol Cruiser Excalibur. The ship itself turned out pretty good, considering I haven't done this in a while!

The thing I need help with is finding replacement decals to finish it off. The ones that came with the kit just crumble when you take them off the backing

Any help in finding replacements world be greatly appreciated.

My best,
Gunner

Tango Papa Decals.

Excelsior Rocketry Decals

Also, next time you want to build a vintage kit, coat the old decals with Microscale Liquid Decal Film . It will keep them from disintegrating when you apply them and you won't have to buy replacements. If the decals are yellowed, tape them to the window facing the sun for a few days and it will bleach out the yellow without harming the decals.

OH, I have them.

Actually I just moved them so they are not alphabetical anymore.

The Space Cruiser Excalibur decals are no located right after the Dragonship 7 decals.

It will make them easier to find.
