Waterslide decal source without having to pay the import penalty tax?

[761st]

I have looked but have yet to find a company that will not ultimately have to pass the tax onto the consumer. Anyone know of a company that would not have to import them? I do not want to voluntarily pay an import tariff penalty tax I did not vote for.

Highly recommend https://callie-graphics.com

She works out of New Mexico and is endorsed by MotionRC according to their website.

She makes any kind of decal including customs of any kind. I have ordered from her in the past and though not waterslide, the decals are very high quality. She might make waterslides though...you have to ask.

Thank you very much sir! I was hoping to find the "white star circle" for the turret top on the Chaffee. Small space with angles.

761st,

We all are enduring the same financial fallout whether it's long or short term.

Please refrain from any political references.

We don't want to know who or why you may or may not have voted for this or that.

Your inquiry could easily have been asked without the comment and still resulted in the same answer.

Respectfully,
LB

Sure. Best to keep silent. I get it. Thank you. And respectfully LB. Yes, "We all are enduring the same financial fallout whether it's long or short term." regardless of who we voted for.

This month alone I’ve bought $500 in LiPo’s direct from GNB, a 50mm Viper and a battery charger from Banggood all from China plus other things in preceding months and none of it had a tariff charge.

I used a set of Peddinghaus decals for a vehicle specific project on a Pershing tank. I found them on E Bay. There are some other brands there that have just the US stars and white star circles.

Thanks guys. Good news both.

[761st]

Found a decal when I wasn't looking. The Jeep I got from Richjohnson comes with a decal sheet and is a perfect fit. I'm not so sure this dry decal will mesh on the top of the turret with the various plastic mold angles so on the front cover plate it goes.

I've bought a lot of decals from "Dragon-Hobby" on Ebay. They ship from Virginia and usually have a huge selection.

Thanks tank!

I bought both the Cool Bank M5 Stuart and the M8 GMC (Gun Motor Carriage) from Temu. I think any tariff fee is enclosed in the shipping charge. At one point, the shipping charges were more than the item cost. That's when I quit buying from Temu.

I bought a stick on stencil set of Large to smaller US Star's in the segmented circles for my 1/6 M5 Stuart for a great price on Ebay. They worked very good except on the front of the M5, the OD green rattle can paint was a bit rough due to the wind. Here's an image, and an Ebay link. Oh BTW, I used some of the smallest stars on a 1/16 RC US Army 4x4, and they looked OK on the truck. Ebay link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/185624582238

Here's an image of a small star with the circle taped over. This truck was molded in a dark Navy Blue. I disassembled it and did a rattle can OD Green, and painted on a few stars. I bought this RC Truck on Temu. It doesn't have a very good turning radius. It needs a servo, instead of the cheep control board steering servo. But for the price, it looks good enough with my Tanks.
