I do not recall what year it was, but I ordered the Fake Wulf from Scott a few years back when I saw the advertisement that another run was being done. I need to dig it out and build it. Kinda wish I would have ordered a couple, but glad that at least I have one. Without opening it up, I was very impressed with the attention to detail, and the packaging. First rate!

I remember he tried several different sources, but they all had the same upstream supplier that had the issue.

I wonder if Micro Scale clear film was tried...Their trim film solid color and clear sheets have been around for decades.

The issue at the time was the glue used on those decal sheets, it just was not good glue or not enough. "Made in China" maybe? But having the same upstream provider did not help no matter where you got the paper. By now all the paper from that "not so good batch" should be gone. I had a few sheets of that bad batch and I did not like it. Luckily I still had some old sheets that worked well for my builds at the time. Some experimented with the Micro Scale decal solution, others with white glue, others with Future Acrylic, all with different results.
