Yep, they announced the Micro Max on a FaceBook group I’m in. Neat product lineup for sure
I purchased the Sharkit and the Baby Sharkit two pack. I haven't got around to them yet, but they look like fun kits.
I do like the Bitty Bertha, may have to add one of those to the build mountain.

Perhaps this is a silly or dumb question, but what's the drawback with putting a 13mm engine (say 1/4A impulse) in a MMX rocket that uses a BT-5 main body tube (like the Bitty Bertha)?
Very likely will lose the rocket?

Perhaps not. I guess it depends on its established performance and how easy it is to find to begin with.
You may want to check stability.

Ahh yes, stability. I knew I was missing something.
Yeah I know him he makes great kits!
Just finished an Ollie-OOP MMX Goblin kit. Nice kit with water-slide decals. I noticed that you can now buy extra Goblin water-slide decals in other colors as well: white, black, red, yellow, green so you can paint the rocket in different colors.

Nowhere near as fun. The looks you get when you show people actual micromaxx motors are priceless.
You’re not wrong. @Absouloot and I have been flying them at the DART range, encouraged (and occasionally supplied) by @fyrwrxz. Newcomers routinely come gawking at them, but I don’t think the club officers are too impressed…
I flew a couple of them at NSL East. Yes, you get lots of looks. It’s good for people to see that you can go really small as well as really large. It’s all fun.
