Beauty! I also built one using a Moldin' Oldies cone, and I have the parts cut out for an upscale using a Silly Putty egg for the nose cone bulges. (Not my idea. I "borrowed" it somewhere.:eek:) When does this one fly?

Very nice! I have one of the originals..And it is STILL not painted!:eek:

Super job on the finishing! :)

Forgive my partimers, but who is carrying the Moldin Oldies cones now?:eek:

Fantastic rocket, absolutely fantastic.. Isn't this kit on the "supposedly to be re-released" line from Estes? I'd love to build one.

I think it is but it won't have the nose cone "bumps" from the picture I saw.

Now, let me think just how to make those 'bumps".:rolleyes:

You really don't need the whole nose cone...just the bumps.

I've always liked that model and even have the clone parts someplace.

Nice job, I love that design. Still have 2 built originals, fly them regularly. They're pretty rough though, it'd be great to have a nice new shiny one like yours!

I expect if/when this does get re-released, Sirius will get a flood of orders. I've already got mine :D
