And as for Reager...I'm going to wait for an explanation of actual grounds for a claim against a decal manufacturer. I get that he may be irked by people making money off his name in one fashion or another. But the fact that someone making decals depicting a plane used in govt service ages ago for a kids toy is actively going out of their way not to offend tells me this is complete bullshizzy. I'd love to read the complaint on that one.

I suppose all the other model manufacturers hawking Gl******** Gl** (google it !) have come to some financial arrangement with the General ? Thought not. He needs to get a new legal firm. Really

No offense intended! As one who has sacrificed countless brain cells on the alter of Testors, Monogram and Tamiya, and continue to pursue the hobby, it wasn't meant to be pejorative. Just an attempt at keeping things in perspective. :drink3:

I figured as much..just had to stand up for my modeling homies! :drink3:

Besides, you know the old saying: The only difference between the men and the boys is the cost of the toys!
