Foxbot decals - looking for some thoughts on them; any good?

I was looking over several of Foxbot's decal sheets and am interested in several. They offer some unique options. Thing is, I am not at all familiar with their product.

Could anyone with some experience with Foxbot decals tell me a little about them? Such as:
- are they "regular" type decals? silk screen printed...
- are they printed on a solid sheet? do you have to trim around them at all?
- are they ALPs printed?

I suppose my main desire would be to avoid problems as identified with Authentic Decals' sheets.

Thanks.

I have their La-5FN set. This is normal decal, no solid background, no ALPS. Quaity is top, I think comparable to Cartograph. No idea about other sets, though.
cheers, Mark

I have sets 001, 002, 005, 006, 007. They appear to be conventional waterslide decals of excellent register and density.
I am acquainted with one of the researchers and his work is very high standard so I expect them to be accurate.
I was sufficiently inspired by set 001 "SB : Stalin's Speed Bomber" to go looking through my unmade kits. Success - two Frog and an MPM of each type. Now I just need to create some time..............
