French company FRROM has released 1/72 aftermarket decals for anyone building the Potez 25 biplane, including its own version.
FRROM is an eclectic producer that focuses on less obvious, more niche subjects.

FRROM’s decal sheet, FR0X03 – Potez 25 Africa & Asia, offers neatly printed markings for aircraft serving Ethiopia, French West Africa, Manchuria, Japan, Indochina, the Levant (French Mandate in Syria and Lebanon) and Nationalist Spain.
