You can get the parts from Semroc for about $20.00 absent the clear fin material. I use map tube and clear sheet from Sig manufacturing. The decals are $12.00 from Excelsior; with the nice touch of all the Gemini Titan serial numbers on the sheet. Instructions and updated patterns (prevents the bells from smooshing) are on the web, as well as the paper model wraps for the capsule. It is about as popular as it gets with the RTF crowd.

As for the BT-60 GT the fin set was also used in the Estes MX (1916) - just not the display nozzles. That model always struck me as a potential for skill level 1. Just produce the tube with a pre-printed wrap and you were 95% there.

If you want to go clone route the NC is on Semroc and the decals are probably available from Sandman - just give him a minute or two.
