This is an older; maybe even original release so hopefully the decals won't let me down. Otherwise it looks like a fun little build.

Re: Scruffy's SAR
Happy belated Birthday Scruffy! That is a great model to do. I haven't done one myself but have seen it built. I was surprised at how low it sits.
As for the decals, get some liquid decal film and paint over them. That should keep them from cracking and shattering.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Ah, a rice rocket! Years ago, there was a fuselage from a wreck Behind a hanger. I would often go check it out.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Scruffy's SAR
Oh very nice! I wanted to get that kit back in the 80s. Looking forward to seeing this one.
