Just a minor correction.

Cox re-issued several of their original RTF model rocket models between 1989-1991.

Estes did not acquire Cox until the mid-1990s at which point the rockets were no longer part of the active product line.

Only 1000 of the Cox Saturn Vs were produced (Still with the wrong interstage paint pattern).

I posted some history about Cox over on TRF many years ago. I believe you can search and still find my thread.
