Not quite a DVII but might be a nice add to order once it's released.  ;) I imagine they'll sell quite a few of these.

Axial logo would be cool - would love an actual prop though to put it on :)

So hoped this would be the DVII up for sale though :(

I would be happier if they put the energy and resources into the long-promised ground crew and pilot figures. They would have wider applications for me than some 1:1 propeller decals. Considering the prop decals are really a gimmick they are not cheap and what's with the Bristol decal? It seems a misprint got through and the decal says it's for "the British and Colonial Aeroplane Comrany etc". The WNW site has an illustrated tip involving using a sharp blade to nick part of the "R" off the "Comrany" and turn it into "Company". And for this they still charge $US14  for a defective decal? Really?

All,
Unfortunately these are not the highly minaturized turnbuckles I had been yearning for, however, these products, like everything else this company has produced makes this hobby more enjoyable. I have every expectation that my co workers shall be asking me about the Fokker Logo in my car's window. I'll explain the Dutchman's role. People in the U.S. do not know about this War. But they shall.
With best regards,
Frank Walker, AKA Fathom

Dave, lets not forget WNW is part of a bigger operation. I would guess the time,energy and resources are minimal for this production and yes they are pricey!!

I have to agree with Dave and not spelling company correct and still releasing the decal is just sloppy IMO

At the very least take the error on the chin and release it properly.

Almost wonder if the spelling error is intentional to avoid possible infringement? I build racing car models also and I have seen on decal sheets or instruction manuals where they break up sponsor logos or mix them up then when you apply them you put them together to look like the real thing. Maybe this is something like that?

Either way it is no worries for me - doubtful I will buy any of these unless they release a new kit - possibly I might buy one along with a DVII but we will see!

Way too expensive for what they are, and to be asking big money for a faulty item, come on Wingnuts, how stupid do you think we are.
Where are the figures that have been promised for over two years, where is the D.VII, where are any of the new kits ??????????????????????
