B-36 decals needed

I was an unfortunate buyer of a bogus kit off eBay. The pic showed a decal sheet, but I believe the seller purposely covered the F-16 part to make it look like there were USAF decals for it. Long story short, I got shafted…first by the seller, then by paypal.

so…now I have a model without decals. Is there anywhere I can get replacements???

in case anyone is interested, i have a decal set for an F-16…I think its for the Monogram 1/48 kit…the one with the red, white, and blue paint scheme. it seems to be in good condition. drop a line if you want it. its free so shouldn’t be a problem.

I believe Revell can get you the decals, if not, there’s a few companies that offer aftermarkets. Super Scale has a sheet (#72-271) but it is only for the B-36A/B models. Modeling Madness has a review of the kit with a lot more information, sorry I can’t link you to it because I use Firefox.

Thanks Matt…but it seems that they are out of production. this ebay dude really gave me the shaft. unfortunately, ebay/paypal have no clue about what is being sold. i tried a dispute, but since they are so ignorant, i lost. now i’m stuck with this thing and i don’t know what to do. :frowning:

I dunno if I’ll have any luck, but I will make the rounds here locally to see if anyone I know has B-36 decals, either from the kit or aftermarket.

First, is this the Monogram 1/72 or one of the Minicraft 1/144s? One option is seeing if you can locate an extra sheet for the Hasegawa B-47. Markings on the B-36 were usually kept to a minimum so all you’ll need are the national insignia and the SAC sash. Serial numbers can be hobbled together from an extra sheet or you can purchase a sheet from one of the AM decal manufacturers that has generic USAF numbers on it, the last one I bought cost me 7.99. Worst comes to worst send me an e-mail and I’ll buy the kit off of you, if the price is reasonable (I don’t know how much you gave for it to start with and I don’t know how much shipping will be). Although the good lord knows what I’ll do with another 1/72 scale B-36. I have three in the stash right now and two of them have damaged decals.

If we are going to cannabalize a Peacemaker I really need a set of 1/72 canopies, will pay a good price.

(Just kidding. [;)] I just have a soft spot in my heart for the ol’ B-36…)

Scalemaster did a set of decals for the B-36 in 1/72, but some of the kit decals are needed unless they can be found from some other airplane. There are also aftermarket decals available for the Hasegawa B-47. As was said, the B-36 didn’t have a lot of markings. Most were in black and you can make with an inkjet and inkjet decal paper, except for the SAC shield and sash, and those are around.

My monogram sheet was in good condition. I suppose it comes down to getting the sizing right and printing them onto decal paper ?
