Default Great Service from Excelsior!

Before ordering a set of decals for the Estes' Alien Invader, Condor (the one with the white and red parasite glider), and the Wolverine I had an extensive email exchange with Gordy. Lots of questions and requests were sent back and forward and at the end, Gordy delivered excellent sets of decals for these OOP models. Emails were quickly answered and the order sent the next day. I got my decals in about two days!!! The Wolverine "PLUS" decals are great as they have as an added bonus three extra decals: two CCCP and one of the "hammer and thingy" Soviet symbols. Tonight I will be applying the decals to the Wolverine. The Condor needs to be built, and the Alien Invader is built and in need of some wood filler, primer, sanding and painting. The Wolverine and the Alien Invader were donated by Rokitflite.

Thanks Gordy!

Or "sickle," as in "hammer and sickle" . Did you add to Phred's Wolverine set? I bought the Wolverine set from Excelsior Rocketry v1 for my still unbuilt clone. I would be interested in purchasing another set if you have added new elements to it.

I agree 100%...Gordy is a great fellow to deal with and always very very helpful with info not to mention his craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Yes, there was plenty of room so I just added stuff to the decal.

Ooo, I wonder how the silhouette of Michigan fits into the theme?

The new set will be part of the next order I place with you.

As a special once only offer on the Wolverine set, if you order two set you get the last of the old style decal, I'll throw in one (the last) of the originals.

I don't know how else I'm going to sell it.
