We have A8-3 24 packs, but that's all.

I've snagged half a dozen F and G composite Estes engines for about $9 each from the HL in our area (SE WI).

A bulk pack (12) Wizards at HL for twenty six bucks. The neighbor kids and local Scout troop will love me even more! Plus, I couldn't by the parts for 3x that price. Multiple kit-bash!

My local HL only has A8-3 bulk paks. The F15-0's were jakked up to $32.99/2pak from the $25.99 the last time I was there.

Ditto, also from the close-out section. We know those won't be back, which is what worries me about the 1/2A bulk packs. Is that the end of them, too?

If so many minis fit in a box, why not put 48 per bulk pack? They fit.

I'll take a dozen 48 motor bulk packs of 13mm B3-6T.

Mine had Viking bulk packs. I tried to explain to my sister how cheap a rocketry project could be for her Cub Scouts, but she just blew it off. I considered picking up a box yesterday, but decided on paint instead.

They only had -6 and -8s yesterday, but I thought they were $27.99 a pack.

That F15-0 price is a problem all over the place.... I and at least a couple of others have tried to bring this to the attention of the company, with no effect.

So the F15-0s I have I got from Hobbylinc.....

Now that they've closed out the 1/2A3-4T bulk packs all the stores here have (in bulk) are A8-3s.
