Brief:
A kit containin' 2 plastic bodied rockets (Space Bus and Space Hauler) with cardboard engine tube and metal engine hook.

Construction:

Well, I tried model cement but saw that it wasn't stickin' t' t' plastic. Rather than second guess it, me bucko, I went straight for t' CA! I thought that since these little buggers were so small it would be OK--and it was! Construction was a snap, with about 10 minutes or less for each rocket. Ya scallywag! T' stickers don't stay on t' Space-Bus too well, but it's cute! T' Space Hauler is pre printed. Begad! Instructions are easy t' follow.

Finishing:
T' stickers don't adhere well t' t' body, me hearties, shiver me timbers, but that's about all t' trouble I had.

Construction Rating: 5 out o' 5

Flight:
Wow, do these critters soar! I went for broke and used t' A3-10T. Blimey! Now I have t' admit I bought 2 o' these kits because in t' first kit both rockets were eaten by trees on their first flight. Ahoy! I could see them and though a little tough for a beginner t' spot, me hearties, I found that if you waited till early evenin' for t' blue Space Hauler t' launch, it showed up nice. Sundown worked good for t' little Space Bus too! I had t' buy a 2nd kit because me wife be mad at t' tree that ate t' rockets and she wanted another set... Arrr! We got 2 launches out o' t' Space Hauler before a tree ate it! It went up nice, straight, and FAST! Even with a good wind it flew well. I had no trouble with either rocket in flight.

Recovery:
With t' Space Hauler you have t' carefully pack 1/2 a sheet o' waddin' and it might have made 3 flights until t' rocket hungry tree got it. Avast! Begad! T' Space Bus is still here after 2 flights and I had no trouble whatsoever except that it tends t' go in t' direction it's leanin' from t' launch rod--and that meant I had t' avoid some curious cows in t' pasture next door t' get it back on t' 2nd flight. Aye aye! Avast, me bucko, me proud beauty! You need 1 1/2 sheets o' waddin' in this one. T' shock cords and streamers were both a little burnt and will need t' be replaced after a few shots. Avast, me proud beauty! T' bodies are small and you have t' pack t' rockets carefully. I noticed t' motor tube in t' Space Bus now slides up and down a little bit now though.

Flight Rating: 2 out o' 5

Summary:
PROs: Construction is quick and easy and they're cute! CONs: Keep them away from t' trees!

Overall Rating: 3 out o' 5
