Nice. Like a trip to my childhood too. I built the lighted Enterprise and Klingon ships there, as well as the Monkee Mobile. If I had all the models (cars, planes, rockets, etc.) I ever built I'd need another house to keep them in.

I like building a model kit now and then, but I have more model rockets than model kits. i don't have the room for the results of all that extracurricular activity... there are kits out there I'd love to have but no place for them... someday I will and the kits won't be available!

I have about a half-dozen plastic models. Some Willy Ley retro-spaceships, a Pilgrim Observer, and a Doctor Zaius Planet of the Apes figure. (Go figure.)

I'm in the early stages of house hunting. I'm hoping to have a shop in the extended garage, and if there's room will put in a display shelf for showing off static models.

I'd buy the Vostok, but I'm out of C6-4 engines. The Monkee Mobile is a must. God knows I have the soundtrack covered.

This is great news, had an original , and pranged it after it's thin mylar chute shredded, way back in 1974. A newer one will be great powered by an Aerotech D10-4 or D24-4 Reload. Will wait patiently for it to arrive in the local Hobby stores. Saw a couple of the Pilgrim Observers locally so just a matter of time.

Roy, yours is an Original. It should be worth considerably more than what is coming, right?
