Default SOLD: Centuri #5316 Space:1999 Eagle Transporter in need of a new home

Hi all! Am trying to thin out my collection a bit...too many kits that I won't be able to get to.

Selling a Centuri #5316 Space:1999 Eagle Transporter kit from the late 70's. It's a unique model that doesn't come up for sale too often. Based on the mid/late 70's TV show (the moon flew out of Earth's orbit!!!), Centuri released this model with a plastic Eagle transporter that returns to earth on its own parachute; it's launched on top of an ST-10 (?) booster that returns separately. The plastic Eagle Transporter is probably 14" tall.

The kit has been opened and restapled, but appears to be complete outside of the main body tube. I haven't opened it to inspect it, but I can see the instructions, decals, what I believe is the complete Eagle transporter plastic parts, a Centuri chute, instructions, and the balsa sheet is tucked in back. The kit is a little rough, but hey it's 45 years old so it's well experienced.

Asking $60 shipped within the CONUS, well packed and shipped by USPS.

Please DM to if you're interested - I accept PayPal, Venmo, and most other common methods.

Thanks for checking this one out - and keep an eye out for other kits that I have available

If I didn?t have a couple already (one of which is an open ?builders kit?), I?d jump on this right away. That is a great price for a hard to find kit.

This one is now sold. Thanks for looking!

Earl - anything in particular you're looking for? Most of my Centuri kits are mid/later vintage, nothing super early right now...

Thanks!

Understand. How about the Sabre and Firebird, both from the last Centuri catalog in 1983?

Thanks!

That 5316 was a very good price - hope to see it built and flown. Any SuperKits that you might consider parting with?
