Well, it's 2008...
I'm expecting that Estes 50th anniversary stuff to be hitting the shelves any day now.

I could comment on that thought, but for now, I better not say too much. Something was planned and cancelled, that's all I can say at this point.
The next thing to come from Estes will be the 2008 catalog, around the end of March the beginning of April, that should give some indication of what is to follow. Last edited by Rocket Doctor : 01-24-2008 at 05:37 AM. |

Well, there won't be an Estes booth*, but there will be hundreds of free Estes rockets at the RCX show in Pomona CA in a couple of months. LAst year we got a few cases of the "Hot Off The Presses" 2007 catalog to give out to participants in the free make & take. I am hoping for the same thing this year.
http://www.rcx.com/ME2/Default.asp Volunteer help is appreciated. More details to follow on the SCRA YahooGroup. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SoCalRocketNAR430/ * No booth because they are supporting the Hobby People chain of stores which is a major customer/distributor.

Does anyone know if Estes will have a booth or representation at the CHA (Craft and Hobby Association) Worlds Fair (was the Hobby Industry Association trade show) in a couple of weeks? I know that back when I was pretty active in the role-playing game industry, the HIA was THE place to unveil your year's new releases. I don't know how true that is any more, but the CHA Worlds Fair is Feb 10-13 this year in Anaheim CA.

Haven't heard anything, but, you never know. I was surprised that Estes showed up in Houston at the Makers Faire. But, thier educational director is from Dallas. I guess it will be a look and see, if they do or not. |
