Blue Angels decals?

Hey all,I have built the Hasegawa 1/72 F11-F1 Blue Angels version, and the decals are crap. Has anyone built this kit in the military version with the BA decals still left? I'm willing to trade for them.Bill See More

Hey guys, Just thought you might want to watch this youtube video.  I passed along some information to this modeler Bill (wetwillyccma) that we had talked about at a club meeting and in return he gave me and our club credit.  He also did an incredible 22-part video on builing a WWII U-boot.http://youtu.be/qxmPXH0nTr4  See More
