This kit is going to come with several large sheets of decals. They will be a pain to apply but, oh well. Quote:
This Model comes with Slotted Tubes and is a 2012 kit. Do ya get it! Quote:

Is the new Freefall rocket a new design or is it the Bailout in a new livery??

Pretty much the same, just different color and the parachute is most lilkely not the same. I see the resemblance but this kit was design 10 months ago and the first and last time I’ve been to that site was when there was a discussion of decals a month or so ago. I’m sorry, but it’s almost impossible to design a rocket these days that doesn’t have some sort of resemblance to something else. I purposely don’t go to many other rocket sites since I don’t want to be influence by other designs. I don’t even go to the designer’s studio on this forum so as to not be accused of borrowing someone else’s design. If you look back at much of the stuff out there these days, most of it has been influence by what Estes or Centuri has done in the past 50+ years. So I guess this goes both ways some times.

I am not accusing you of anything. Thanks for updating Estes. We are all enjoying watching you work.
Although mine was designed in the late 70's and kitted in the mid-80's. Jerry |

One of the very exciting things about the release of the 4:1 parabolic nose cone for the Der Red Max is the other Estes kit upscales and re-releases it makes possible.
Goblin Patriot Comet Mean machine Cobra 1500 Sprint (slight compromise) I am sure many of you can think of others. I hope the Goblin is next!
