The Estes PSII Der Big Red Max (DBRM) kit (9721) has been available for several years now.

It has been one of the most modified kits in recent years (The Big Daddy kit is another).

I am guilty of buying several DBRM kits for current and future projects.

This past week I received another DBRM kits via USPS (Thanks for beating the heck out of the package guys!)

I inspected the kit contents and everything is fine but the box was pretty beat up.
As I looked at the box something didn't seem right. I compared the box with a previous DBRM kit box and discovered this recent DBRM purchase had a new box layout.

The printing date on my 'old' box was 09/30/20. The 'new' box was 03/31/22.

Attached are side-by-side pictures of the two boxes as I rotate each of them ninety degrees. Old box on the left, new box on the right.
