Arrrggghhhh.

I am really tempted, but I have so many unbuilt kits, and piles of "I've got a project in mind for these!" part bundles.

Indeed....but that probably won’t stop me from making an order....

I wonder if Zoe will ever forgive us.



Well, one order in.

Got my order in. The 7264 Astro Explorer looks like it could be converted to a Trident possibly. At just over $8 I just have to try

Ordered Centuri for a few bucks and with some needed items to boot. $52, had to make the free shipping mark.

At $10.50 each, those starter sets sure make great recruiting gifts

Some guys on the FB Estes group also had the same experience I had. Some rockets were "out of stock" when I placed my order them like magic, were in stock later!

Yeah, earlier the Nike Smoke was shown as just 1 in stock, then quickly from there went out of stock. Just a while ago, it was back in stock. Ordered it, the Nike Apache, Honest John, and an Executioner. Got a couple of some of the kits to get to the $50 level.

I'm getting an error on the sale page. The rest of the site is working.

Nice to see the PNC-80K, or at least, something that looks like it. The BT-65 parts are interesting too, but I didn't see a nose cone that would fit.


I wish that Estes would, on its website, include complete dimensional data with products like parts and model rocket kits.

Sent an email yesterday through their 'Contact Us' link on the website. No response. Not the old Estes, that's for sure.

Too bad............those are unbelieveable prices and I would have placed a fairly large order.
