OK - here are the parts. I had to split this photo in half because of the limitation on attachment size. There are four identical sheets of balsa. Next to the balsa is a band that wraps around the center of the body tube. It is laser-cut, as are the holes in it. The holes are off-center, which might be one of the fixes coming in the final kit (this part was symmetric in the Maxi-Brute kit, but you had to cut the holes yourself!). Also of note is the twist-on/twist-off motor retainer, as Estes has been using in their 29mm kits. Nice to see one available in 24mm now! Finally, a close-up of the nose cone spin nozzles and boattail.

I don't anticipate painting in the "test article" scheme on the package. Hopefully somebody (are you reading this, Gordy?) will produce the "operational" type decals like the Maxi-Brute version had.....
