Finally received the Batcopter decal sets and, wow!, they look superriffic! The bats, numbers, BatLadder sign, control panel, all verry neato!

As I looked over the fine details and crisp edges of these premium outdoor grade, computer die-cut vinyl decals... I noticed something awry... something amiss...

There was no big bat-head decal for the front of the helicopter windshield! Yow! So I scurried around checking in with all concerned parties and discovered that part of the art must have slipped thought the cracks at some point. Whatta drag!

So it's off to the printer and again... the waiting... Aaauugghhh!

I forgot to mention, Wes, after I finish the skids up, I'll make a mold and injection mold some rubber/plastic caps to finish off the tubing ends.

Duck! Wow, that is tooo doggone cool! Those will be the coup de grace of the project, no doubt! First of all, the original skids are almost always broken or missing, second they don't match the configuration of those on the Batcopter. Nice work, mon frer! Keep pluggin'!
