New MPC Rockets


MPC is getting back into the rocket business.
This time with licensed models featuring KISS and Star Trek.
These pictures were found HERE

These look to be "Almost Ready To Fly" models.
There is nothing really groundbreaking here, two new plastic fin cans and nose cones.
Dimensions of the KISS rocket at the right is 20" tall, the Star Trek model shown below is 28" tall.
The face of the boxes say: Flys up to 260 feet altitude! Whoopee!
Are they going to fly these with anything more than an B6-4?

From the Article:
The first wave of product will include Star Trek and KISS licensed rockets and will be available in September 2012. Following that release will be MPC branded rockets in January 2013.



I do prefer the Star Trek model, the Enterprise print parachute is very cool!

These two rockets aren't exactly my style. But if it introduces some new people to the hobby - it's all good!
