No they dont but am sure you will be slightly peeved if someone opted for the same.

As for its 'rare' availability, think your wide of the mark.. it was reboxed by Revell not too long ago and the orginal Monogram version still out there at not to bad a price and quite a few on eBay, heres just one of them.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/...%3Ag%3ADIsAAOSw6DtYTJIC

Actually, a decent large scale (1/16 or even bigger?) model of the Lunar Module - with interior - would make a fascinating part work...



Someone has designed one on Shapeways.His name is Vincent meens, but you will need to rob a bank to afford to build it

Hello Tom,

Wasn't aware of the re-release so thanks for that, interesting to know. Mine is an original release and it was hard to find at the time I bought it, but obviously availability fluctuates from time to time and there may well be more than one imagines out there sitting under beds and on top of wardrobes, so maybe not as rare as I believe, but that's ok. I managed to get mine for £32 including p&p when there was only two others that I could find on the 'net, one at the £75 mark and another at silly money, just over £100, so I was happy and still am, should build into a nice model with some scratchbuilt extras when I build it. Cool ThumpUp

That is really cool! My family has a cabin in the mountains of Wyoming. It is at 10251 feet above sea level. The Milky Way is so clear that it appears as though someone spilt milk across the sky. Darbyvet would get no sleep at all! The one thing I have never seen up there is the Aurora. This would be perfect up there!

Meteor showers can be spectacular.Bundle up to stay warm, find the constellation that the meteors will be coming through and sit back and watch the sky.You dont even need a telescope. last one I watched I was out for about an hour and saw some very bright meteors.

Any news regarding this? I've had a read, and it does seem to be quite good.
