Excellent Reproduction
Kit went together perfectly and turned out great - DON'T sand the divots for the pods in the main fins, they are good out of the package. If you sand them, you'll need putty. Now you guys need to do a Super Vega!

Awesome Rocket!
I love this rocket... looks really cool in the air, flies great! This should be a T-Shirt Combo kit!
