    Polar Lights TOS USS Enterprise 1/1000 scale decals

    Hi, I appreciate the input. Are you commenting on the window situation or the overall Polar lights decal debacle? Since you've joined the discussion here I want to ask you: have you built this kit and used the decals that come with the kit successfully?

    Polar Lights TOS USS Enterprise 1/1000 scale decals

    Oh and that out of alignment window...it tore in the application and I repositioned it but slipped out of alignment before I noticed it. I'm going to paint over it, use my window drilling templates to sketch out a new one and paint it in.

    Polar Lights TOS USS Enterprise 1/1000 scale decals

    HELP! I'm looking for anyone who has successfully applied the Polar Lights decals for the TOS Enterprise 1/1000 scale with any success. I've had ZERO success getting these decals to work with MicroSet and MicroSol to get that painted on look. This is what the damn things do EVERY TIME I use...
