From the Estes Facebook page -
Here's Vern Estes reading the BIG Birthday card with all the submitted Rocketeer wishes.
From left to right - Ellis Langford, Mary Roberts, Vern Estes (seated) Trip Barber, Bill Stine and John Langford (seated).
It looks like Mr. Estes is signing the Orange Bullet face card for the Birthday kit giveaway.
On the table behind them are some of my finished builds - L to R - Space Corps Corvette, Leo Space Train, Side Kick, Low Boom SST and that Orange Bullet on the front table.
Enlarge this picture and check out the new packages on the back table. You might find some upcoming new products!
Yeah, several new ones in there. I see three new ones there packaged in boxes... is that a new trend?
ReplyDeleteThe Low Boom SST looks like a future classic - can’t wait for the build on that one. I see they’re expanding the Destination Mars series - the Mars Longship with a spherical Discovery style nose cone looks intriguing. I wish we could see the rocket in the Space Corps launch set better - Centurion is a great name though. Hopefully having a Green Eggs in an individual package means we’ll have a single version available. Am I really seeing a Skylab version of the Saturn V?
ReplyDeleteHapy birthday Vern, thank you ....you and Mr Stine made this all possible.....Hope 2020 is sucdessful for Estes .....keep those classics comming
