These are the best avenger kits! I got two in the stash. I hope you have lots of fun building this.

Clint, Stuart...thanks. There is a lot that can be picked out, if you will. I am hoping for an easy build.

Are the boxes open? I was wondering if they had the seat belt decals and any instrument panel decals. If so could you scan them and email a copy?

I'll check when I get home from work Lyle, they are open but I don't remember what decals are with it.

Both of my kits are the TBM-3, the decals don't come with anything for the IP and the decals for the belts don't look the best. I plan on getting these, they are for a hellcat but I think they would also work for this.

If you need the other decals I can do my best in getting them for you, I never have used the scanner on my printer or I'll just send you the decal sheet since I'm not planning on using them.
