Just a PSA for anyone else who comes across this thread when they are doing their Musashi. In the 2013 boxing (which is what I am using) you get some linoleum strips which are placed on the aft flight area.
THESE ARE NOT DECALS! They are, in-fact, stickers. This is something I have never come across in a Tamiya kit. I only discovered this once I had gone through the whole dipping in water process and they refused to react. This made working with them a bit difficulty since the backing was now wet and soggy. You also have to cut them out exactly along the edges, again made harder by the backing paper being all mushy.
Still, I got them on in the end.
