1:48 Voyager 1 or 2 Unmanned NASA Space Probe

Development of both Voyager probes began in the early 1970s. Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 were designed to collect data about the outer planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune). One important discovery was the first detailed pictures of the outer planets. Nearly 35 years after they were first launched, each probe continues to transmit important scientific data on the outer limits of our solar system to NASA.

Kit features all-new tooling, parts for a globe-style display stand and marking options for both Voyager 1 and Voyager 2.

Fantastic Plastic Von Braun ROUND-THE -MOON SHIP

Fantastic Plastic Von Braun ROUND-THE -MOON SHIP


In 1953, Collier's Magazine published a series of wildly popular articles depicting how America planned to venture into space, to the moon and ultimately to Mars in the latter half of the 20th century. Lavishly illustrated by artist Chesley Bonestell, the missions -- and spacecraft -- depicted were largely the proposals of Dr. Werner Von Braun, the German-born aerospace genius behind the V-2 ballistic missile and later NASA's own Saturn V moon rocket.
In Von Braun's scenario, a manned mission landing would be preceded by a series of manned survey missions to look for viable landing sites. These three-man "Round-the-Moon Ships" would launch from one of Von Braun's proposed wheel-shaped space stations and then travel to the moon along a trajectory that would have them momentarily captured by the lunar gravity and then flung back to Earth. (This "free return" trajectory was what the ill-fated Apollo 13 crew would use to return to Earth in April 1970.) No landing would be attempted during these survey missions.
In 1958, Lindberg Line Models liberally borrowed Von Braun's concept -- uncredited -- when it produced its plastic "U.S. Moon Ship" kit. But no other company has produced the O.G. "Round-the-Moon Ship" in kit form -- until now!
This 1:144 kit was produced exclusively for Fantastic Plastic Models by Central Replication and Production (formally Millennium Models International). Featuring 62 resin cast and 3D printed parts, our kit accurately reproduces Von Braun's original design in painstaking detail. The finished model is 8 inches long.

The Space Shuttle was the first operational orbital spacecraft designed to be re-used after a mission. The first flight was recorded in 1981 with the last flight of the Shuttle program occurring in July 2011.


The Space Shuttle was developed to carry a variety of payloads into low earth orbit including satellites, the HUBBLE Space telescope, and components for the International Space Station (ISS). A variety of other missions were performed including re-supply and crew rotation for the International Space Station, numerous missions for scientific investigation and classified military missions for the United States Defense Department and US military.


A total of seven Space Shuttles were built but only six were capable of flight. One Shuttle simulator, “Pathfinder” was built and used for static ground testing and exhibition. Enterprise was used for flight testing within the atmosphere and five Shuttles were actually used for space flight. Two shuttles were lost during flight, Challenger and Columbia and four Space Shuttles, Endeavor, Discovery, Atlantis and Enterprise have been retired to museums across the United States.


This Minicraft Models kit was developed to commemorate the surviving Space Shuttles and recognize these space pioneers for their contributions to the NASA Manned Space Program. Check for the location of the closest Space Shuttle on display near you.

Product Description

The Saturn V (pronounced "Saturn Five") was a multistage liquid-fuel expendable rocket used by NASA's Apollo and Skylab programs from 1967 until 1973. In total NASA launched thirteen Saturn V rockets with no loss of payload. It remains the largest and most powerful launch vehicle ever brought to operational status from a height, weight and payload standpoint.

The largest production model of the Saturn family of rockets, the Saturn V was designed under the direction of Wernher von Braun at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, with Boeing, North American Aviation, Douglas Aircraft Company, and IBM as the lead contractors. Von Braun's design was based in part on his work on the "Aggregate" series of rockets, especially the A-10, A-11, and A12 in Germany during World War II. The three stages of the Saturn V were developed by various NASA contractors, but following a sequence of mergers and takeovers all of them are now owned by Boeing.

1:40 Nike Hercules Missile US Army

During the Cold War era, the Nike Hercules was the second "combat-ready" land-based surface-to-air missile to be put into operation by the US Army. The dart shaped 27 foot long missile carried a deadly Atomic warhead and had a range of 70 miles. The warhead was designed to insure that detonation could only occur at altitudes sufficiently high to prevent damage to friendly surrounding territory. The collaborative effort between the Douglas Aircraft Co., Army Ordnance Corp, Bell Telephone Lab, and Western Electric Co. was a fine example of American industry working together to solve complex problems and protect American cities in the event of a full scale Nuclear attack.

The Nike Hercules was the second "combat-ready" land-based surface-to-air missile to be put into operation by the US Army. Designed to replace the already operational Nike Ajax, the Hercules had a greater range and accuracy than its predecessor, but maintained the same electronically-controlled guidance system. This very successful control system seeks out the target, then at the same time directs the missile to it. The dart-shaped missile carried an Atomic warhead and was 27 feet long. Its cluster of four booster rockets were 14.5 feet in length. Both the missile and its booster were powered with solid-propellant rocket engines, and its speed was given as being between 2,000 and 2,500 miles per hour. Its range was approximately 70 miles. The atomic warhead was designed to insure that detonation could only occur at altitudes sufficiently high to prevent damage to friendly surrounding territory.

Development of the Nike Hercules was the result of close collaboration between the Douglas Aircraft Company, Army Ordnance Corp, Bell Telephone Laboratory, and Western Electric Company. It was a fine example of how American industry can work together to solve complex problems to protect American cities in the event of a full scale Nuclear attack.

Manufacturer's description: The world's first ICBM became the most often used and most reliable launch vehicle in history. The original core+four strap-on booster missile had a small third stage added to produce the Vostok launch vehicle, with a payload of 5 metric tons.

On January 2nd, 1959, Luna 1 spacecraft was launched by this launch vehicle. Luna 1 passed within 5,995 km of moon but did not hit it as planned due to a failure of the launch vehicle control system. Went into solar orbit and became first manmade object to attain of escape velocity. It went into orbit around the Sun, between the orbits of Earth and Mars. The measurements obtained during this mission provided new data on the Earth's radiation belt and outer space, including the discovery that the Moon had no magnetic field and that a solar wind, a strong flow of ionized plasma emmanating from the Sun, streamed through interplanetary space.

New Ware 1/72 Mach 2 R-7 stencils - NWD010


Decal set contains 124 decals for almost any possible R-7 model. Decals are directly identified to use on models of ICBM - Sputnik - Vostok - Voskhod - Soyuz R-7 variants.


Sven Knudson's review:"These decals are intended to be used with the Mach 2 1/72 scale R-7 kits: Sputnik, Vostok, Voskhod, Soyuz, etc. They provide the stenciled details present on each real booster and can greatly enhance the look of the finished model. The decals are very detailed: looking through a magnifying glass reveals distinctive Cyrillic type. The decals are numerically coded and called out as such on the placement guides by stages: the common markings for the first and second stages and specific markings for Vostok, Voskhod, and Soyuz TM upper stages and payload shrouds. There are no markings on the Sputnik or ICBM shrouds. There is no mention of the Luna shroud, but a decal (labeled V4 on the sheet) is indeed included for a stencil on the Luna shroud.

Zvezda 1/72 Ballistic Missile Launcher Topol # 5003 

The Topol-M is a cold-launched, three-stage, solid-propellant, silo-based or road-mobile intercontinental ballistic missile. The missile's length is 22.7 m and the first stage has a body diameter of 1.9 m. The mass at launch is 47,200 kg, including the 1200 kilogram payload. Topol-M carries a single warhead with a 800 kt yield but the design is compatible with MIRV warheads. According to chief designer Yury Solomonov, the missile can carry four to six warheads along with decoys. Its minimum range is estimated to be 2,000 km and the maximum range 10,500 km. It has three solid rocket stages with inertial, autonomous flight control utilizing an onboard GLONASS receiver. It is reputed to have the highest accuracy of any Russian ICBM with a CEP of 200m. The body of the rocket is made by winding carbon fiber.

The Topol-M may be deployed either inside a reinforced missile silo, which is reported to be able to withstand a direct nuclear hit or from an APU 15U168 launcher mounted on the MZKT-79221 "Universal" 16-wheeled transporter-erector-launcher. This mobile launcher is capable of moving through roadless terrain, and launching a missile from any point along its route. The designation for the silo-based Topol-M missile is believed to be RS-12M2, while the mobile version is RS-12M1.

All new 1/72 Mercury™-Redstone Plastic Model Kit

The First Americans in Space! 

In 1961, two brave men became the first Americans to fly into space. Launched atop Redstone rockets, they experienced incredible acceleration during 142 seconds of powered flight, after which their Mercury™ spacecraft separated from the booster to coast majestically to altitudes over 117 miles (188 km). From there they would experience about five minutes of weightlessness, and gaze down upon the Earth from their incredible vantage point. A short time later, their re-entry would begin - racing back towards the Earth until they hit the atmosphere, the deceleration building up until they reached about 11g, after which their parachute would deploy to slow their spacecraft so they could safely splash down in the Atlantic Ocean. Only two men would fly the Mercury™-Redstone, but they paved the way for more ambitious spaceflights which eventually saw man walk on the moon.



  • Detailed Mercury™ capsule with shingles and bolts
  • Finely detailed Redstone rocket with launch stand
  • Finely engraved recessed panel lines and bolts
  • Parts and decals included to build any Mercury™-Redstone mission
  • Alternate parts for early porthole and boilerplate capsules

Revell 03888 Bell X-1 Supersonic Aircraft

The Bell X-1 is an experimental American aircraft that was the first to break the sound barrier in a controlled manner in level flight. The first of the X series airplanes designed to test new technologies. The X series airplanes were secret projects. On October 14, 1947, Charles "Chuck" Yeager, a USAF pilot, flew an XS-1 (from Experimental Supersonic - experimental supersonic) called Glamorous Glennis, crossing the sound barrier. The plane was powered by a rocket engine and was raised to the starting altitude of the test by a B-29 bomber. The landing took place at Muroc Air Force Base (now Edwards) in California. It was the 31st flight of this aircraft and the 13th flight of Chuck Yeager on the X-1. The speed achieved was 1,126 km / h (Mach 1.06) at an altitude of 13,115 meters.

Product Code: 5901.

Requires construction and painting.:6 Explorer 1 Satellite


Explorer 1 became the first US satellite when it was successfully launched into orbit on February 1, 1958, by a US Army Jupiter-C rocket, modified for the flight to become the Juno-1.


A 1:6 scale model of Explorer 1 was produced by the Ideal Toy Company (ITC) in 1959, only a year after launch, and this was quite a detailed kit. It not only had an opening outer casing to show off the interior, but sat on a stand that had a handle (top picture). Turn the handle and, via what was in effect an all-plastic musical box, it ‘clicked’ out the telemetry signal the satellite sent back!


The kit became quite rare, but those who wanted to actually build the model (instead of using it as loft insulation) were saved when Glencoe Models came on the scene.

1:48 Jupiter C Rocket

In the late 1950s, Dr. Werner von Braun was pushing his dream to reach into space. Working at the US Army's ballistic missile labs, he proposed a design named Orbiter that would put a satellite into orbit. The concept lost out to the US Navy's Vanguard program, but von Braun continued to develop the concept under a program called Jupiter. This program was officially designed as an intermediate range ballistic missile.

When the Russians put Sputnik into orbit in 1957, the space race was kicked into high gear. When the Navy's Vanguard launch vehicle exploded in flight, the Army and von Braun brought forth Juno - a Jupiter C with an Explorer I satellite payload.

1:48 Bell X-1B - Decals for USAF, NACA and NASA

Late 1940's supersonic USAF experimental aircraft, originally flown by Chuck Yeager.

The Bell X-1, designated originally as XS-1, was a joint National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics-U.S. Army Air Forces-U.S. Air Force supersonic research project built by the Bell Aircraft Company. Conceived during 1944 and designed and built during 1945, it achieved a speed of nearly 1,000 miles per hour (1,600 km/h; 870 kn) during 1948. A derivative of this same design, the Bell X-1A, having greater fuel capacity and hence longer rocket burning time, exceeded 1,600 miles per hour (2,600 km/h; 1,400 kn) during 1954.

The X-1 was the first aeroplane to exceed the speed of sound in level flight and was the first of the so-called X-planes, a series of American experimental rocket planes designated for testing of new technologies and often kept secret.
