The 2nd. pic shows the two tubes that were signed by Vern at NARAM 32.

Next are some old MPC kits that were on clearance back in the mid '80s or so for IIRC between
$3-5 each. I can't remember who sold them but they apparently acquired the last of the kits.
Anyone recall who sold them?

Built the Nike Patriot a couple of years ago; only painted the tubes - nice old kit!

The Flat Cat was built back in ~ '94. The 100 lb per cu. ft. balsa was replaced with b/c grain med light instead for the wing and stab.

I bet the Microsonde 3 boosters won't survive one landing! Lookee at them fins!

p.s. great thread!
That's a great collection. Especially the two tubes that were signed by Vern at NARAM 32 and the Centuri Mini-Max F10
I vaguely remember a site or individual selling a lot of the old MPC kits but sorry I don't remember who sold them.
