David, you said before that you do small plane models?...if these things are in HO scale (1:87), which someone said they are, do dry rub fighter jet decals exist?
I would personally hate warning stencils like that. Mainly---it's always grossly overscaled and far too obvious, and often wrong. I frankly don't trust *any* company to get them right, short of the top couple of "military jet model custom decal companies". Way too many USAF F-15's with F-14-only NAVY markings on them... Also----real markings on uber-fake colorschemes? (and we're all going to put big Autobot logos on too--no point in trying to "disguise" it at that point)

Here's a real F-15 in *pristine* shape---it's one of the Air Force's demo planes. How obvious are the markings? I counted at least 48 (because I know where to look) and that doesn't include the obvious insignia itself.

PS---I personally find the "l33t speak" serial numbers on Classics lame. BR4WL etc. And again--it wouldn't be like a real one, there's specific patterns/groups of numbers used. Adding fake details to make it "look more real" is an oxymoron.

As for dry-rub transfers etc---not in scale for these two. 1/72 would be the closest, but would be even more oversized than normal. Slingshot may end up being 1/72 though, possibly Skydive as well. (they are simply inherently smaller planes---they need to be made to a different scale to be the same size as the other 2)

I believe you meant MAKETOYS Devastator. Superion would be taller. Which is probably better than having the smaller FP Superion anyway.
Platano power!

By all accounts the jets are MP seeker sized so it'll go with their own (TFC) Devastator, no reason to think it'll scale with another companies effort.

If you go buy what we saw of the starq bots and our insider who has seen the first two in person.... Super-ion will be Hercules size.

Damn that makes for a big Silverbolt, can not wait for his reveal.
