Ready to launch Space Shuttle

A little pricy, but an excellent quality rocket. A lot easier to "assemble" than the older one!
It looks really nice next the Saturn V and the SLS in the same scale.
Can't wait to fly it

Cool Rocket

Got this for my son’s birthday. Its his first rocket. It wasn't super clear that the clear fins need to be on when launching. We thought they were for displaying the rocket at home. None the less, we figured it out eventually lol. Cool flight, we enjoyed the bonding. Rockets were my childhood hobby.
