Never Opened, Once Crushed. Is that the Ian Hunter (Mott the Hoople) version or the Great White version?

I'd be tempted if the top half of the Odyssey was there instead of the bottom half.

Yes it might be worth the 20 or so bucks to someone with the hope of salvaging the plastic bomarc parts, alpha 3 fin can, vintage birdie, etc.

This guy has a real issue with shortening his rockets. Look at the Starship Vega, Jr.

Yeah I know, $143 for some chrome plated Alpha III parts. But if I were a rich man:

Hey JumpJet, any way this can be added to the wish list?

Great to know they're pulling in this kind of money. I have a few of these, including one sealed in the box. I also have some of the starter sets complete with chrome launch pad. Very cool looking.
