Somebody posted a picture on TRF of an entire rocket-themed tree. I think they used MMX rockets as ornaments.
I don't remember where I saw the thread though.

I have a Hallmark Mercury Redstone like this one. They are from the "Journey Into Space" collection. These are the only two I have from it, IIRC. The wife doesn't pull them or the Star Trek ornaments out anymore. :rolleyes:

There are a few more in the Journey Into Space series. IIRC, there is a LEM, lunar rover, and Armstrong or Aldrin planting the American flag.
