Thanks for finding it! Yeah that’s a bit beyond what I’m willing to pay for it. SprueBrothers has the Overtrees version. I’m going to reach out to my contact at Eduard and see if they can send me the decals. If so, I think I can go that route. My LHS actually had this in their shop last week and I was hyped, but didn’t wanna dish out the $90 they wanted for it at the time. I thought about it for a week and decided I wanted it. When I went back, it was sold ☹️ |

I think I saw them on eBay but you can probably find them somewhere online: F-104J/DJ Eiko Decals |

Great looking scheme you've decided on. The thing that I don't understand is the price. Its a Hasegawa F-104($35-40) with a few add ons.

Yeah you’re right. it also comes with a reference book, resin seat, mask, PE, and Eduard decals. It also has an Eduard manual color instead of the black and white one from Hasegawa. The main cost is generated by it being a limited release. |
