Yeah, I have absolutely *no* idea where you're going to scrounge up a BNC-50BC :

*Or* an upscale to fit a BT-60 tube :

Not that I would know...just surmising..idle thought...

If I offend, I ask for your humble forgiveness, please?

Anyways, that Torpedo looks fantastic! Have seen a couple on E-Bay and at first blush wasn't too 'jazzed' about it..But it looks enough in the 'cool' factor to snag one when I see one

Lets just say I was having as much fun as is humanly possible outside of a vintage hobby shop or between the sheets. I lowsided the bike and the irresistible force (me) found an immovable object (concrete retaining wall).

As for the crumbling decals, Micro Sol decal film will fix the problem. I used it on my 70's vintage Astron Interceptor decals a few weeks ago. Good stuff!

Nope! It's all part of the adiction!

The only tough part of cloning this particular kit (at least for me) would be the decals and you already have that nailed.

Haha - I already have one actually. Ordered it from Semroc while I was working on this kit just in case I messed up the nosecone that came with it. I seem to have the problem of putting more dents in than I'm sanding out. Haw!

Now you got me thinking about that upscale...vI might have to try it.

That is a nice looking rocket. I have about 6 that I have collected. One of these days I will build it. I am glad they never made the Cyclone raider, I am not a big fan of plastic models attached to rockets. I have the Star Trek and Tie fighter rockets, but probably never build them since they are not really rockets.

I have them cleaned up (no blue background - just white. Also removed the little "TM" from next to the names) and arranged to fit on testors decal paper if anyone wants the file
