It's a good price especially still being on the tree. It's the only piece I need for my Flagg.

Thats how most ended being thrown away, you can tell from that pic it looks like nothing more then a parts tree itself. I think that kinda money for that is insanely over priced. Its a totally useless part anyway, who spends all of thie rplay tim eon the fantail deck ?. I dont consider a must have to completing my Flagg. I dont intend to ever sell my Flagg till the state takes my estate when I die so they can deal with making it complete with this part if they so deem necessary LOL..$20-$30 would be reasonable and 15 or so for a repro but over 75 to $200 lik ei have seen...no fin way.

anyone have good experience using Krylon Fusion plastic paint on the flagg?
i finally got my ebay Flagg, but the deck pieces are a mismash of faded grey, and the super structure has some slight yellowing. i was thinking of doing the peroxide but then i thought, what if a more accurate paint scheme was applied.. i've seen some Cobra painted Flaggs, but what about just a refresh? anyone got hint on how to get the decks all the same grey? can you peroxide the decks? i've attached a pict.. (don't mind the Pug)

Here are some picts of my Flagg restoration...
before... eventually put in 2gal of 20Vol + 6gal distilled water + 4 scoops of Oxy clean... and got this... still need to: 1) get new stickers 2) fix that crack (via remold) on the superstructure top where the Mast goes (maybe get an unbroken one and do the de-yellowing) 3) fix the discoloration of the flight deck pieces where they are a mis-mash of grey.. 4) finish the cleaning up of the rest of the pieces.

forgot to update guys...........got my last few deck clips i needed, the fantail deck rail(original) very costly, and keel haul"s pistol.......which was also costly but i needed it. so now my beast is 100% complete/original. no room here for a box, so i'm good.
what i would want to know is, would anybody consider doing a high res scan somehow of the flag box.........just because i'd like to have that printed, framed and hanging on the wall. i think it would be a neat thing, and wouldn't gobble up space. anybody think that's a decent idea? or has it been done, and if so, where can i get it printed out? i'd want it done to exact size of the flagg box's original size |
