As expected decal sheet unusable but I'm sure I have some instruments decals somewhere 

[Bainford]

That is some weird decal degradation. Were they overheated, or stored in some super dry place for a long time?

its a very old kit 1993 release date so over 20 years old

I think the decals might have got damp, fujimis old decals often disintegrate over time and sometimes its can take less than 2 year. I've got loads like that and they are all 8s to mid 90s japanese kits. The revell and amt decals tend to be a little thicker which might be why they last better

Check your Walmarts. Mine got another model kit display.  When I noticed it they were on clearance for $17.  I go in today, and they’re down to $11.  I figured sigh why not, and grabbed these two.  I’m not a fan of MPC at all, but by these being new tools, and after checking them out I’m impressed.  Now to find what kind of aftermarket stuff is available for these.

I kept kicking myself over not grabbing the Cutlass last time and was fairly sure it wouldn't be there on my next pilgrim.....I was wrong!
