I agree. That one isn't $100 interesting to me either. I have one but paid like $30 about ten years ago.

Still hoping you have a Rigel 3, USS Pleiades, and a K21 Gemini Titan to list from your stash.

The Athena I have listed is the E2x series.

It'a a shame you don't want it...I have two more.

OK, here's a head scratcher.

MRI kit Zenith Two, not a bad looking kit, actually a very nice kit, sealed does not look like it was ever opened.

Look carefully at the picture of the back of the kit.

Does anybody see a nose cone?

I may build that kit myself. I have a bunch of booster engines I haven't used.

It has a BT-50 main body so a nose cone is really not an issue but, a missing cone...that's like the easiest thing for "quality control to spot...strange.

Say, does anybody have an idea of what an Estes Futuristic parts assortment is worth?

Apparently!

But it says "Insist on MRI replacement parts".

I believe that kit uses the metric T-25 tubing like the MPC and Quest versions of that kit.
