I recently purchased a "Hoby Craft" M1A1 and a Challenger. They are just reboxed Trumpeter kits though.
The question pertains to the decals offered. These are supposed to represent OIF and have decals but there is nothing to tell a guy where the decals belong. None. Shouldn't there be something that specifies decal locations??

If you could scan them or take a really good digital picture, then maybe one of us can assist you.

Also which tank did you get ? the USMC " leatherneck " -it looks like it might be the trump. m1a2 - the one with the mineplow has the ucmc style smoke gernade launchers , hope this helps TOAD-13 OUT

I got the "Leatherneck" kit. I also got the Challenger kit as well. Neither have any marking instructions but both have decal. Thanks for the help.
