More New Estes Kits for 2009
 
Posted with permission. Here is the new line up of Wal-Mart kits for this year. As with the Classic Line announced earlier, these are held up due to the CPSIA testing.

Wow! I must say, I'm impressed by those designs. They're finally getting back to all the great sci-fi designs they had in the '80s.

Did I read that right that these will only be sold through Wal-Mart?

Wow, those are really nice! I'm gonna have to get another part time job to increase my
modroc budget :D :eek: as well as figure where to display.

Where did you read that these will be sold at Wal-Mart? That would be super if true!

I was told this was the kit line proposed and accepted by Wal-Mart. I'll have to check and see if they will also be available at other chain stores, hobby shops, etc....

I believe it's more of a takeoff of the Centuri Spacemaster.

Looks more like a modification of the Estes Satellite Interceptor vintage kit.
