I contacted Caracal Models recently, they will release a decal sheet for the F-94 at the end of 2020! Was about time some proper decals came out for this one.

Excellent. I have a spare set of decals but I'm always willing to wait for Caracal. In fact I have several kits awaiting decal sets from them 🙂

You can contact him and request a subject! That's what I did but he said he was already working on a Starfire sheet 👍

Yes, I fully halted my Starfire hoping his sheet will have the machine I'm trying to depict.

You lucky guy, with the F-89. I sure wish Revell would re-release that kit.

I found mine on ebay. The kit itself is in perfect condition. The box however was written all over with a marker and the inside had paint sprayed all over. I was not too happy about this since I paid a premium price and none of the box damage was mentioned or shown in pics.

Yea, I have found a few on E-bay also, but out of my price range.

Hmm that's funny, I was talking about the F-94 but off course I meant F-89!! 😄

I found a bunch of 1/72 scale one for reasonable prices, so I guess if I am going to add a F-89 it will be 1/72. I found 1 1/48 but the starting bid was 70.00.

Well when our model shows start up again I'll keep an eye out. With a little time I can certainly find one for WAY less than $70.

I recently purchased a 1/48 one here in Holland for €20 and a couple of weeks later another one was offered for the same price.. Should I keep my eye open for another one? And then ship to the US if it doesn't costs too much

Thank you Nathan, Erik and Augie. That would be very nice. This has always been one of my favorite aircraft. ( I guess that could be because I grew up around them, as well as 100's 101's 102's and 106's.) showing my age there am I? LOL.
