MSRP: $12.00 Website: www.twobobs.net Two Bobs has produced an excellent decal set for the F-15C. The package contains an 8.5x11 "reference/instruction" sheet which provides some small amount of history for the enclosed markings. A set of 3 view drawings, in color, clearly illustrate the correct location for the decals. Nine images, each approximately 1.5" x 1" provide extra guidance for the placement and appearance of the markings. The 3 view drawings and the additional photographs provide all of the "paint scheme" info a modeler would need in order to get started on an F-15C. The decals are printed with a precision of registry (images centered on their backgrounds, borders with no gaps, etc) that is as close to perfect as one can hope for. The carrier film does not cover the entire sheet (meaning less trimming and less chance for air bubbles under the decals) but rather extends just beyond the printed letters, numbers, and symbols. There are some great features with Two Bobs decals. The decal instructions include F.S. numbers for the paint scheme and list the item numbers for the proper paints for Testors, Humbrol, Gunze, and Xtracrylics. Along with that information is a brief list of "What's Out There", a list of kits for which these decals will work, and different after market parts for the F-15C. The extra information on the paints, kits, and after market parts is a nice touch. Two aircraft are the featured subjects on this decal sheet. One can model aircraft from the 366th Wing or 390th Fighter Sq. There are sufficient markings for 10 different aircraft. Other serial numbers allow for one to mix and match some numbers to produce 10 different aircraft. I was so impressed with these decals that after giving them a quick look I went to my files to see if I had one of the recommended F-15 kits in my collection. These are very high quality decals and I highly recommend this Two Bobs product.
