The decals are in our hot little hands and waiting for the instruction sheets to be completed. Sheet 2 (300AC-JP-002 for the 2nd Carrier Division (Soryu & Hiryu) has been delayed due to a productionn error. The "official" release will take place at the HMGS-PSW convention June 30, 2012 in Manhattan Beach, CA (data on their web site and ours). Release for sheet 2 is now slated for Labor Day weekend at Pacificon gaming convention in Santa Clara, CA. Those attending Historicon can find all our decals at the I-94 both, see Dave Winfree. Best wishes,

Sheet 2 has been corrected and has been "officially" released. I've been asked what's next? Answer: in the Pacific later, U.S. carrier air groups, or the first part. Best wishes,
