Looks very impressive. It's going to be *expensive*.

I agree but SNG Aero BT-80 X-15 price is $225.00. I would say Apogee X-15 looks a hold lot better and I bet it will be cheaper.

That does look like it will be a nice X-15 kit and hopefully will turn out a pretty nice looking model. Will be interesting to see the price.

I’m guessing about $120.

I guess they opened up for sale today and the first production run sold out in 27 minutes. I missed out but hope to get one from one of the next runs.

The message currently on the Apogee site for this is kind of amusing:
