Starfighter Decals 1/72 Grumman F7F-3N Tigercat Part I
By Matt Bittner
This release from Starfighter covers the Grumman F7F-3N in 1/72. Originally the kit was released by Monogram oh-so-many-years-ago, but alledgedly it's due from Accurate Miniatures "one of these days". It can still be found from time-to-time (even under the Revell moniker) so they still do exist.
The decals are for two schemes. The first is an F7F-3N of VMF(N)-531 based in Korea, 1952, in all-over black. The second is an F7F-3N of VMF(N)-542 based out of Kimpo, Korea. That one is finished in the usual overall Sea Blue.
Like all their 1/72 decals now, this sheet is printed by Cartograf. The decals are extremly sharp, nicely printed and in register.
With thanks to Starfighter for the review sample.
