RC10 DS Mustang decals?

Post by THE H.P FREAK »

HI!... I'm currently restoring a RC10 DS with the Mustang body. I have NIP decals for the car, but last night as I was applying them I noticed some were missing? Is there a 2nd decal sheet that originally came with the car? I seem to be missing the 3 very large hood and door decals that say "ALL SPORT body quencher", the three #11's, Roush Racing, Mustang Cobra, window nets, and Valvoline decals. I'm just going by the Box art. Or was there never those decals in the 1st place? Just curious, I was going for a box art look on this one.

This is the decals I have :

I would think someone made the decals as there was this DS a few weeks ago. I really have no clue who could have made them.

the DS came in 4 different kits 8080, 8081, 8085, 8089. could one of them come with the decals?

This was brought up before a few times. From Steve Husting:

Those decals were removed due to copyright restrictions.

HI!... Dam! That's a shame. Anyone happen to have a set of the decals before they pulled them? I'd be very interested in them.

I've had it in the back of my mind to get some made, but never applied the time to do it. Seems finding people to print stuff in lower qtys these days is getting harder than ever. Everyone I've talked say, no, no, no.

HI!... mci_racing on Ebay (brother of owner of TBG) would most likely make them if you could get him a high quality scan of a original decal sheet. I've sent him a few original scans lately. His reproduction decals are not bad at all, and because he leaves the Tamiya name off the Tamiya decals they can't bother him. ;)

There is no original decal sheet. They will have to be custom scaled, sized and made.

HI!... O.k? Well someone posted up that the very 1st ones made had the decals but they were discontinued due to copyright issues? There's a post a few above showing a car for sale on Ebay that has the original decals.

I don't know, but suspect the box art was pre-production and done before or while they were working out the potential copyright usage. In all the years I've been collecting and looking, I have never seen a set. Ttrans am racing is a the top of my interest so its always been on my searching radar.
