Some nose art on this one & tri coloured. I think we are allowed to use the -3 in -5 slot?

Not sure if on one side or both with the dice? I guess it depends on the decal makers. Bottom set looks closer to the photo though.

I don't see why we cannot have more than one model of the F6F. There would be alot of skins to be made.

It's second on my list though. I want to finish Libra first.
