Great project! The Talon looks extremely good in the Thunderbirds colors. I really hope that the T-38 will come onto the market as a new kit in 1/72 at some point. In my opinion there is a real gap in the market. The few old kits are very difficult to obtain. Congratulations on the project.

Yeah,I don't even HAVE this model anymore. Got crushed when a couple of my display case shelves collapsed a few years ago (support pins worked themselves loose). I'm working on doing the TBirds collection in 1:72 because I need less display space. I've found a t-38 kit, but as yet, no decals. I believe Warbirds does a 1:48 sheet, but not a 1:72 sheet.

The above kit that I found on E-Bay (Hasegawa #00012) just arrived, and it turns out it has decals (albeit minimal) to do the Thunderbirds. You have to paint on all of the stripes by hand, but the decal sheet provides lettering, the TBirds logo and the tail flash for #2 bird, plus the rectangle of flags. I can live with that.
