Nice V-2 kit found

stumbled across this on the net. It's closer to 1/16 than 1/18 but i don't think that's a big deal. Looks like it comes pre-painted, which would be great if it did but i havent asked to confirm this. The kicker is you have to print out an order form and mail it in with a money order. Can't be ordered online, that i can see.

Just thought i'd post it for anyone who wants to give it a try.

i emailed the seller and got a response. It does NOT come prepainted. I think it is basically a knock off of the Estes V2 kit, with exactly the same assembly required. For me the only selling feature was if it came prepainted...but it don't. :?
