Unfortunately, it seems that L'eggs quit selling their product in eggs in 1991. Too bad. I've heard that nothing beats a great pair of them.

That's to bad. Would be great for an upscale of what I'm doing.

I'll hit up the neighbor kids this weekend for one.

I have a box of L'eggs eggs that I bought for postage years ago. Let me know if that will work. Seems a tad large, but I do have them.

I am doing a standard BT-55 to BT-50 design. Might be a tad large for that. Someone had released a set of alien nose cones (within the last couple of years) and I was hoping they were still out there.

My current build is a little more difficult. Still haven't found a plastic egg but the fins are taking time anyway. Thought I would put up the PDF file for everyone before I am done.

Estes did a Sci-Fi nose cone assortment. Is that what you mean?

I looked on the Estes web site and didn't see them.

AC Supply sells them. And 40% off like all the Estes stuff. But ... if you’re like me, you find $100 in stuff you gotta have, so you get free shipping.
