Excellent, I think a Bandit/Vega order is coming up!
I noticed the instructions say it was introduced in 1979, as 1320. The Starship Vega was originally introduced in 1973 as KC-4, and re-released in 1979, as 1320.

It was actually introduced as part of the Citation line in 1971!

Over the years I have been back and forth on which version to do. I had settled on the re-release version then changed back to the original. I thought I had corrected it everywhere, but I did not. The original is harder to assemble, but I think it looks better when finished. Thanks Roy!

What's the difference in the Citation and the re-release?

Hmmm. You know how Carl offers the Number 8 booster as an add-on to one of my favorite kits? I see a similar possibility here. Three compression springs, extended length dowels, three BT-5 couplers, six rings to cap the couplers and three small travel stops. Easy to do in my head... although in looking at the in structions all you need to add are the springs, three extra rings, and travel stops.
