I bought & built a Redstone Maverick when I was eight or nine. A local hobby shop carried MPC kits.

I remember being so puzzled by the kit. Was it a scale model? It sort of looked like one.

I still have a piece of MPC body tube, with those plastic fin mounting rings glued on it. It might be the Redstone Maverick, or one of MPC kits I bought from AVI in the mid 70s.

The two MPC kits I have intact are a Pegasus II (the multi-stage variant) and a Moon-Go, which I hope to repaint.
