We still have 1/100 SV kits floating around if a person wants one, but I understand it's not in the catalog and people not in the online forum loops won't find them. The S1B and Skylab are both in recent photos at Estes and John has even mentioned his 3D printed prototype parts. Word has it that the Skylab SV will be out in the 3rd or 4th quarter. Seems to me things are getting better!
I don't think the GT will sell much beyond the YORF/TRF crowd and it isn't hard to clone, even without 3D printing. However, it would be nice to have it kitted again. The Merc Atlas was a tough kit to get right with all the finicky silver strips. It would be pretty expensive, so I don't know if they will want to invest in another run. I only have one of them, so I'd buy another for a spare.
