Default MPC 3-0849 Nike Patriot

This MPC kit is still in the original box with the original, pristine plastic wrapping. It has not been opened since it was manufacured long, long ago.It is yet another variant on the Nike theme and has an 18mm mount with parachute recovery.

I am asking $100

This kit is offered for sale in an effort to liquidate my collection of kits and is being offered via cross postings on The Rocketry Forum and Ye Olde Rocket Forum. The price indicated is what I have determined by looking for evidence of similar sales but, admittedly, might reflect a poor judgement on my part. I'm just doing the best that I can. The price does NOT include shipping. Interested persons are invited to contact me via PM and I will calculate the shipping. Payment is expected by means of PayPal, Zelle or Venmo. My intention is to make shipments twice per week after confirming receipt of funds. I will try to give the most accurate descriptions I am able to provide and will happily answer any specific questions either by PM or within the post thread.

I used to tell Mom, "...I want to fly rockets when I grow up!"

She said, "Make up your mind, you can't do both!"

This is a very good deal on a sealed vintage kit like this. About the largest kit MPC produced and comes with a molded fin unit just like the one on the MPC Nike Smoke kit.

The preceding is an unsolicited, uncompensated endorsement of this kit and John’s kit sales.

Be careful! You might convince me to keep it and that would annoy SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED tremendously!
