Some forgotten Shrox kits
This was one of the pages on the Shrox site years ago that showed some potential new offerings. (I copied it before it disappeared.) The Icarus eventually did come out, but I think the rest never materialized. I always liked the looks of the Federation in particular. Maybe they're now in Estes future?

Those are cool! Looks like the aft end of the Federation has a music CD as well as the trademark Shrox ping pong ball.

Don't forget the Sarah Conner.
Here's my version. I call it the John Conner. No decals yet. Just haven't figured that part out yet. I think it's gonna need a lot of nose weight.

It looks like I entered the ranks of the BARs too late. These remind me of the kits I wanted as a kid but could never find or afford.
Is there a source for buying any of these Shrox kits?

Looks like Estes will be making the Icarus available as the Daedalus, but I'm not sure as far as any of the others. I think Flis Kits still kits the Alien 8 and Apogee does the Snarky. I just pulled out Alien 8 #37 tonight to finally start it.
