Does anyone know where I can get a decal for the Estes Maxi-Force?

I take it you've seen this:

That's going to be a tough one to reproduce. Give Ebay or ROL a try. :confused:

Yes I have downloaded this info.
I was trying to find out if someone had an extra for sell or was able to modify the metallic background to match the Estes decal.
I agree it will be very hard to reproduce.
Does anyone have a supplier for the metallic background that is big enough to fit the maxi-force?
Is there a metallic spray paint substitute?
Thanks for any and all help.

on this note, there are some do-it-yourself decal suppliers ( I use papilio - and they now have a metalic silver and gold film (sort of like trim monokote/ mylar , that they claim can be printed on and used , just like making a decal ( well, self adhesive decal).

would prove very nice if things could be redone, such as the A20 DEMON wrap ( beg, plead for someone like phred to try it .. or at least draw up the artwork so I can try it , lol ) .

Good news, Al. I've been working on the Demon decal for a few weeks, a little at a time. I figure that when I'm finished, it will be able to be laid over another silver sticker or decal. Not perfect, and probably not the easiest way to do it, but I'm okay with that. ;) :cool:
