Same here - although I get why they don't want to ship all that.
I'd even consider if it was Northern California - but LA area is just too far for a road trip just to pick up old rocket stuff

Not my listing nor do I know the seller.

Looks like he has re-listed this lot and is now willing to ship (shipping ain't cheap). Not clear, but I think he is leaving the engines out though. Might want to check with them on that if you are interested in the engines.

Saw that, wish the seller would've put those 2 Firing Line models up separately. The X-15 seems to show up occasionally, but not the Banshee or Vampire. Here's a spare retainer: https://www.ebay.com/itm/1954495147...ABk9SR8qi_YjIYQ

Back on the potential ‘deals’….

Here is a listing for the Centuri Buck Rogers Draconian Marauder kit. Looks to be in decent shape, with a Buy It Now price of $50, plus a modest $7-8 shipping.

Looks like the seller has 2.

Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/3255345401...ABk9SR-7H3c7JYQ

Not my listing nor do I know the seller.
