These decals would be good for a novice builder.\u00c2\u00a0 With some minor work they could be good for a show built model.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">*All Registered trademarks are the property of their respective brands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\n var gaJsHost = ((\"https:\" == document.location.protocol) ? \"https:\/\/ssl.\" : \"http:\/\/www.\"); document.write(unescape(\"%3Cscript src='\" + gaJsHost + \"google-analytics.com\/ga.js' type='text\/javascript'%3E%3C\/script%3E\"));\n\/\/ ]]><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\n try { var pageTracker = _gat._getTracker(\"UA-7543364-1\"); pageTracker._trackPageview(); } catch(err) {}\n\/\/ ]]><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>  This is an AfterMarket Review of the Decals by Lucas (Bud King 1952 Hudson, #RL-51953) in 1\/25th scale by Tony Gibson for Right On Replicas, LLC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[59],"tags":[1253,1252,1251,1124,223,1254,210],"class_list":["post-2070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-kit-reviews","tag-bud-king-1952-hudson-rl-51953-decal-review","tag-bud-king-decal-set-review","tag-decals-by-lucas-review","tag-doug-cole","tag-rightonreplicas","tag-rl-51953-review","tag-ror"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2070"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2070\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2072,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2070\/revisions\/2072"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.rightonreplicas.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
