Sirius Rocketry has cast polyurethane resin duplicates of the plastic parts used in Estes' Space Transporter America and other such short-lived kits (and not only Estes'). They are part of Sirius Rocketry's "Moldin' Oldies" line (see: https://www.siriusrocketry.biz/isho...s-and-parts-26/ ). Also, they can and do make resin duplicates of more such parts than are shown on their "Moldin' Oldies" page (they've cast them for me).
