American_Grenadier. They're really selling fast? If so, can you ask that Dragon salesman to make its future 1:18 rockets; so they can be re-milked + re-sold later as military items (e.g. the early ICBMs which defined the Cold War era)? If you can pull this off, this CAN be a BIG boon for Military Collectors. Space Collectors will basically buy thusly pay for most of these big (rocket) molds. Just switch its space capsule tip for a nuclear tipped warhead - and viola! We got a completely different product for another consumer base! - Military colllectors (even beyond us 1:18 enthusiasts) will definitely be interested by its sheer size alone. Its a great sales pitch / question to ask that Dragon salesman. "Why waste a big (rocket) mold on only 1 item (1 space rocket for space collectors) when that same mold can be milked many times over to sell many different ICBMs for military collectors as well!?!" Indeed, the 1/72 Saturn is nearly the same size as a 1:18 "Friendship 7" Mercury-Atlas. Atlas rockets were also used for military use; in the first ICBMs of the Cold War era. Military enthusiasts will DEFINATELY be interested in the sheer size of these powerful symbols that defined an era. Again, if you can pull off this question + sales pitch to that Dragon salesperson.AMERICAN_GRENADIER wrote:Spoke with my dragon salesman today...will be offering the 1/72 Saturn V...they are selling fast in presale
