I thought “normal” was buying 3 of every kit — build one to fly, one to display, and a backup. OK, maybe a backup for the backup. Anything more was hoarding. Well, maybe it is, but now I think Verna is on to something. Hoarding is not bad! My collection of kits now seems so ... well ... inadequate.

I wish I could afford the space and cost to hoard.

I'm looking forward to the 1/200 Saturn V, think it's a great idea for folks that want to get in on the anniversary celebration, but don't want to tackle the 1/100 (though I will). It should be a good seller, I know I'll pick up at least a couple. It just may get a whole bunch of folks to try out the hobby.

I'm looking forward to the 1/200 Saturn also. I do hope you can fly it with the F-1 engines attached. That's the one good thing about the Dr. Zooch Saturn V. |

This was posted today on the ESTES facebook page.
The secret is out, but we're over the moon 🌕 to formally announce the 1/200 scale Saturn V will be available in April 2019! Stay tuned for more updates about the release of this Apollo 11 commemorative kit 🚀 |

I will be building a K-36 (3 x 18mm cluster) for the occasion. I built the 2157 a few years ago.

AC Supply shows the LJ available in October and the Saturn V available in November. Guess we’re just expected to check the website periodically to see the actual availability date. |

So was that all-black prototype Ellis showed flyable? i.e. was it printed the way it will be molded? I'm sure you asked!!
