There are four sheets of decals in this set, the first contains RAAF roundels and fin flashes, the second USAAF stars 'n' bars, the third RAF roundels and fin flashes and the fourth has all the unique markings, nose art, names, letters, codes etc.
Conclusion
The decals are superb, perfect print and colour and nice and glossy with very little carrier; it just makes you want to go and build all the options! This is therefore highly recommended to anyone with the Hasegawa kit in their 'to do' pile.
