Can't wait!
Anything scale sounds great. Love the idea of a BT70 Hojo. Any of the two stage Nike rockets like the Nike Cajun(I love the cone on that one) would be cool to see gap staged....if it's even possible.

There was a Nike Cajun on display.
Of course, I took some pictures.

I took some similar pics at the Udvar Hazy, Bob. I knew they might come in handy some day!

Mark, that rocket next to the Nike Cajun is called the Far Side. Now THAT's one I'd like to see in kit form. I've been toying with scratching that one since the day I saw it in the museum. The color scheme and build challenge would make for a great model rocket.
That third one is cool too. It's called the F-23 and it's got some pretty neat looking ram jets attached to it.
