Default Estes 1/100 scale Saturn 1B unboxing video

Here's a quick video overview of the contents of the new 1/100 scale Saturn 1B kit from Estes. It has been billed as a re-release, but after seeing the parts I'm inclined to call it an entirely new kit.

Enjoy,

James,

Besides a great review of the kit contents, I really enjoyed the overview of the Skylab Saturns.

I am fortunate to have a copy of Peter’s Rockets of the World. Thank you for including information on a bunch of other reference materials I now desire!
