Couldn't pass this one up. I don't think I"ve ever been drawn so strongly to the Astrocam as I am now!

Yeah, I saw that one earlier tonight and thought "Wow, that's a nice set. The Astrocam outfit ain't too bad either."

P.S. - It had something like 19 views on ebay in next to no time. Evidently, the photo is, um, helping.

I believe that outfit has a rare B8-7 engine included in that assortment.

In following the link for the Astrocam 110 offer, I saw a "buy it now" for a Cineroc... I was about to jump on it, when I read the auction's details...

Vintage Original Estes Cineroc Model Rocket Movie Camera BOX and some parts.

Then there was this beautiful shot of the included "parts"

It may be missing some parts, but it has the critical black wedge, which is absolutely necessary...for chocking the wheels on your car

I never had a Camroc or Cineroc. So I cannot say with certainty whether that black thing belongs. Maybe it's the wrapper for a package of film?

Makes me wonder how Shari is doing. 😳

Yep. I found a cool space exploration game with a nice pair of . . . . dice.

That's what it is. It's a Camroc film canister, which was an integral part of the Camroc structure (basically, the middle part of a Camroc). They were shipped in black plastic. This one appears to be sealed.

My buddy bought an old Bavarian's beer light at an estate sale a couple of weeks back. He paid $80 and I could tell he was thinking that he overpaid for it. I went to ebay and found one very close to the one he bought, being displayed by the juggy chick, for $249.99. It made him very happy. They've got their fingers in every hobby pot.
