Ecto1-A replacement decals?

[ZOMBIEREPELLENT]

Hey guys, I got an Ecto 1-A off ebay, unfortunately the decals look like they've been dropped in some mud. Does anyone know where I could get replacement ones? Or have the ability to make some?

I created a replacement set for mine, but swapped out that stupid "peace sign" ghost for the original one. Printed it out on testors decal paper. Made a bunch of new and replacements for the various labels, AlphaNumeric display and other additions.

If you're interested, I could send you my printing PDF.

Yeah man, that'd be awesome. Yours is actually one of the reference ive been using. how did you do the advertising signs?

How did you do the advertising signs?

A while ago I created a graphic to replace the not-so-accurate decal signs; it isn't perfect, but it's closer than the ones provided with the kit. You would have to create your own decals, of course, or print it on cardstock and glue it to the kit (you'd also have to re-size them to make them fit). Anyway, here's a link:

As for the rest, you can get a set here if all else fails:

That's cool zombie, thanks. I had seen the ecto 1 decals before but never seen any to replace the 1 A decals. It'd be cool if someone did where the kits are so old the decals are all yellow now anyways.

The advertising sign was just another decal I made. Replaced the Licence plate, and made stuff for the monitor, a lot of the interior back equipment details, Magazines, a lot of the upper rack labels as well. Sadly, I know there's a lot of details I threw in there that could never be fully appreciated (the text on the monitor is a entry about Vigo). All the decals were recreated from scouring every Ecto1A photo I could find. Only thing I don't have is a placement guide, you'll just need to check your reference (and those images on my site)

Made the PDF available here:

Wow man, those are freakin awesome! thanks for posting those. Even tho I personally hate the gb2 logo, I'm making this for a friend, otherwise i'd be all for using the GB1 logo haha

Thank you too for posting that, but get back to work on it . . .the Ecto 1A's door top warning tape is orange . . .not yellow. **ducks**

I really am in love with the interior detailing decals. WELL DONE!!!!

I still have my original build of the Ecto 1A. You're decals may have been dipped in mud, but back when my dad was helping me build mine he accidentally stuck em in his coffee instead. Good times.

THANK YOU for that decal sheet. :thumbsup
