Reviving a Classic: The Story of 3 Amigos Decals
At Fusion Scale Hobbies, we celebrate the passion and creativity that define the scale modeling community. Today, we want to shine a spotlight on a beloved brand that has made a significant impact in this space: 3 Amigos Decals.
A Journey Through Time
Over 20 years ago, model enthusiasts Sam Lopez, Les Smirle, and Alex Kung came together to create 3 Amigos Decals. They saw a gap in the market for high-quality, custom decals that catered to scale modelers, offering options that other manufacturers simply didn't. Armed with enthusiasm and a couple of printers, they set out to produce a diverse array of decal sheets, quickly earning a reputation for quality and creativity.
As time passed, however, the challenges of maintaining their printing equipment and the rise of competition, particularly in the NASCAR decal segment, led to the difficult decision to close shop. While Les and Alex enjoyed their well-deserved retirement, Sam kept the dream alive in his heart.
A New Beginning
In March 2019, Sam seized the opportunity to partner with Print It Decals, a subsidiary owned and backed by Fusion Scale Hobbies and Fusion Scale Graphics. This collaboration breathed new life into 3 Amigos Decals, allowing the brand to reach customers worldwide once more. Today, 3 Amigos Decals boasts a growing catalog of over fifty unique decal sets, each crafted with the same passion and attention to detail that defined the original brand.
