Very cool Mongoose digger....

Thos Slixx decals look very nice on there. I have a set from eBay and while they look good, not quite as nice as Slixx I imagine. But I do have the Snake one as well.

Keep building diggers. You have the knack for it.

Nice dragster! Good job!

May I ask whats wrong with the kits decals?

[Rat_Pack]

The reissue kit decals are generic stuff that "resemble", and I use that term loosely, the original kit decals. Model King did not want to have to pay the licensing fees associated with putting the correct Hot Wheels, Coke, Goodyear, etc, decals in the kit so they had some generic looking ones made. Slixx did pay up to reproduce the original copyrighted & trademarked logos for the car thus allowing us to build correct appearing Mongoose "Hot Wheels" f/e dragsters. Now if they would only do the "Snake" decals too ..................RatPack......................
