RETRO-DRIVER Posted December 20, 2010 Report Posted December 20, 2010 I recently purchased the 1/18 Sunstar Ari Vatanen Acropolis Rally Escort. The model arrived less the actual Rothmans Decals ie front wings,rear quarters,boot & bonnet!! When I queried this with the supplier ,he said that's how they come !! (flea bay) Does anyone know where I can source these stickers? It looks really naff without them
stumax Posted December 20, 2010 Report Posted December 20, 2010 my local model shop said this is because by law u cant advertise tobacco,altyre models in fife have some,bit oot yer way,hth
mk2escortmad Posted December 20, 2010 Report Posted December 20, 2010 stumax is right mate, its against the law BUT they usually supply the decals in the box with the car so you can stick on yourself if needed. they are the water transfers. hope this helps
RETRO-DRIVER Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Posted December 21, 2010 I get the gist of it,however,I never received the transfers BTW I spoke to altyres & they don't have any spare
mk2escortmad Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 Try to contact the person you bought it off mate and tell him you saw one the same WITH the decals, if all else fails try to contact the people who make the car...sorry i couldnt be more help, good luck bud
mk1super Posted December 21, 2010 Report Posted December 21, 2010 Failing that email sunstar they sent me out mine
stumax Posted December 23, 2010 Report Posted December 23, 2010 altyre had loads of extra sets n the owner is a ford fan,has loads of ford stuff even a 1 18 th scale transit wi jimmy mcraes signature up the side.got his own website ,worth a look.on a different track ive got a fair range o models,from cossies to escorts any interest?
MEXY867M Posted December 27, 2010 Report Posted December 27, 2010 The rothmans should have come with the decals inside for you to put on so its the suppliers fault unless the seller you got it from took them out for what ever reason,?
stumax Posted December 27, 2010 Report Posted December 27, 2010 i was told that the decals are supplied by post,so may have problem with the supplier not including them when sending to customer
