Wow,

Estes products at Toys R us have been 'seasonal' at best lately and vary greatly from location to location.

It has been MANY years since I've seen the motor packs without wadding at this type of store as they have no place to display or sell wadding packs.

Check the date code on the motors. it is remotely possible that these are extremely old stock found in the back of a stockroom, from the days when they sold the motor packs without the wadding and the wadding separately.

if the date code is new, then i guess this is just "interesting...."
