Hi

I know that there was a discussion about the design of the M@r!b*r* decals in the recently released MFH F2003GA 1:12 proportion kit - but I can't seem to find it?

Anyway MFH has redesigned that part and a new set can be requested at their website.

I requested the decals back when they were announced and haven't received them yet. I sent them a message last week to see if I could get info on when they would be available but have not heard back. I began the kit and am at the point I need the decals, it would be nice to get them.

I've just received the redesigned decals. I didn't get a shipping notice or anything. They just arrived in the mail.

What is the change exactly? Is it the pixel shading on the M logos, or shape of them, etc.?

As someone that has made this same decals also to be sold with the MFH kits I can tell. The good ones have a complex amount of shadows, flashes and reflection to make them look as bold 3D shinny volume letters.
To be honest, Ferrari started 2003 season with solid black letters and introduced ā€œ3Dā€ somewhere mid season. Even more 3D ones were used in 2004. Ah! Shadow of nose white letters were not black but a creamy thing
