That's the old story. Those molds likely didn't survive the fire, and we know how expensive they are. BUT lately Estes seems to be cranking out a lot of new plastic parts. So....I was thinking maybe there's still some love for the old Saros in Penrose, especially an ARF Saros.

The Gemini-Titan seems like a slam dunk as far as likely to reappear, but it is a scale model.
