I imagine that would also fit the Italeri MP4/2C?
Can I ask where did you see this?

Re: Tyrrell 020

The idea is that you double up each white decal.
It stops the dark grey showing through.
IE makes the white more whiterer.

PS looks like I'm going to have to order a set!

Re: MFH 1/12 for August.

It still amazes me we havent had a Ferrai 158 as driven by John Surtees in either 1/20 or 1/12. I questioned this elsewhere on this forum and was told he wasnt a popular world champion. However, the 158 is a beautiful car and won the 1964 world championship. Surtees also had a career driving for Ho...

Thanks for that, I looked but could not find his website.
I agree his FW14b is amazing. He is also the first person I have seen that has glued the top of the nose to the monocoque before painting, and managed to fit out the cockpit afterwards.

Re: Meng vs. Italeri

Hi PTR, The Italeri MP4/2C is a re-release of the Protar kit and was originally released around 1987, the overall shape of the kit is good, however the wheels and tyres are too big in diameter, but replacements are available from Jamesb(!) on this forum. The detail of the powertrain and radiators is...

Re: Look for Meng McLaren MP4/4 in the wild

I would not recommend TB decals.
Mine came poorly packaged, which had broken the decals and they did not even respond to e-mails.
Would never buy from them again.
