Well, my order came in today from Cobra Stickers. My Pukin' Dogs and Generic Markings sets were earmarked for my 1st 30th Skystriker.
I had already used the colored G.I.JOE logos from the Hasbro stickers as well as the Skystriker name and the sideways "V" looking stickers on the intakes. That's all I planned on using from those. I did some serious research on Pukin' Dogs F-14s so I could place the stickers in a military fashion with a little homage to the 1983 Skystriker. After 2 hours of label application, here is what I ended up with... I will take more pics later and add them here. Details: - Currently assigned to the USS Flagg. If Cobra Stickers makes a USS America label, I'll change it out. - No pilot name used right now. If I make a custom 25th/30th Keel Haul or Maverick, I'll use one of those names. Otherwise I may go with Shipwreck or Wild Bill (the Night Force style one from the SRO set) or use SRO Ace as a different pilot. - Currently labeled as plane # 109 (from what you get with the Pukin' Dogs set). Will change that to # 213 once I get some numbers. Would love to get 2 more 30th Phoenix missiles (AIM-54) to use in place of the Sparrows (AIM-7). F-14s could carry as many as 6 Phoenix missiles with 2 Sidewinders (AIM-9) or 2 AMRAAMs (AIM-120). - plan to someday make the wings and wheels separate. Need to study up on SuperFlanker's instructions. Hope you like it! Thanks Cobra Stickers for these great sets and thanks to Hasbro for the return of the Skystriker!

Wow, that Ace looks soooo small in the cockpit. The stickers look good.

Ace was REQUIRED to be holding the control stick (so he looked like he was flying the jet and also so he wouldn't flop around inside the cockpit as I "flew" the jet around the house). He does indeed sit pretty low as well as a tad forward from the seat-back.
