I believe a while back it was determined that the kit is the same as #2025 Meteor

http://www.oldrocketplans.com/estes/est2025/est2025.htm

Check the nose cone list and body tube list on YORS

http://www.rocketshoppe.com/

and email or check Excelsior Rocketry/Sandman to inquire about the decals.

I don't have that decal. I would need a scan or something first.

I found the old thread but it looks like you had posted to it so guess that's not much help



Fore Check had posted about it. Haven't seen him on here or on TRF in a long while I wonder if he's still in the hobby?

http://www.oldrocketforum.com/showt...7&page=1&pp=10&

If you have success locating a scan of the decal set please post.

I always like this model. Like a different spin on the Goblin.

I forgot about that post I even posted to it. I would like a scan of the decals for Gordy so he can make me a set. I have a Mentor kit so I can clone the rest. There was one on ebay but I didnt win it

Can't help on the fin template or decals, but the instructions are available on the Estes archive:

http://estesplans.larocketryforum.c...%20magician.pdf

The nose cone is the PNC-55AO, which, I believe, is currently available in the Hornet.

Hope this helps.

Greg

This is the best I can do given what little I had to work with.

It's based on the catalog picture plus the size and shape from the pdf on the Estes web site.

OK, I'm gonna go to bed now.

I may add a few extra stars tomorrow but I think this matches.
