I got a lucky surprise when I opened it that there were 3 rockets inside the box, 2 were not visible or mentioned in the auction.



That's a slightly different version from the one I had. The tower and the console were the same, but my console was molded in either red or white, and it had the rocket that is pictured on the pad, as well as a two stage version. I did not have that parachute rocket, but I remember seeing that one for sale by itself (or with the blimp rocket) in Woolworths.
