Dave,

Me too. That's what got me to start this post. I haven't seen the SS1s in Launchables format for almost a year. And now there are lots of them, during the winter, and at clearance prices. That's a heck of a lot of kit for $7.

The Space Ship Ones always disappeared almost immediately every time they were put out in their previous appearance, so it would make sense to bring them back. The other kits with them aren't the X-Prize Launchables I would expect if it was old stock, but instead the Bullpup (a longtime apparently very popular Launchable), Bandito (almost RTF easy builder), and Hi-Fliers Launchable (best value for the money of any Estes offering ever).

I bet they could fit the Red Max in a Launchables box. Think they'd sell a few?

They should also bring back the Skywriter in the Launchables pack.
