His HPR version is really nice too:

If I didn’t have an Estes #7240 and Stickershock vinyl to go with it already on the build pile the 1.2” Binder HoJo would be on order


I have one of the 5.5" SBR Honest Johns in the build pile now--along with two of the Lil Honest John kits. Both are very detailed, semi-scale models. Much closer to the real thing that any other kit available.

Scott also teased a 8" Honest John (L3) to come later this summer. Might have to save up for that one!

The Rocketry Show Podcast is a great resource too.
