Default Saucer question

I have become interested in saucers of late. I know there was the paper one and the Snitch from Estes, the Area 51 and Planet Probe from Quest and the Frick Frack from Fliskits. Were there or are there still any others out there ? Thanks in advance, Les

Estes had a clone of the Centuri one once they shut the Centuri division down too.

FlisKits has several others including the three-stage Trifecta (gotta build mine).

The ones I see most often at launches are Applewhite saucers/pyramids.

There is also the square flat plate with a motor tube - the New Way Spacemodels Dare 2 B Square. That's a saucer of sorts.....
