Exactly which version of the Nike Zeus was this Thang modeled after ?
None I know of.

Yes, there is such a thing as NORMAL, if you have to ask what is "NORMAL" , you probably aren't !
Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, AGITATION, CHAOS, TURMOIL, FIASCOS, AGGRAVATION, INSTIGATION, NUISANCE-ACTION, and HAVOC !

GH,

The only thing more disconnected for MRI than their model names was the cover art they put on their packages. Absolutely some of the best cover art, but it usually had nothing to do with the model being shown, LOL. I have to admit I have an original Zeus kit hanging on the wall of my office. Of the hundreds (low estimate ) of kits that I have, it is one of my very favorite packages. It just screams "model rocketry early space race era."

Ahh...it's a ZEUS, not a Nike Zeus. My mistake.
That makes a LOT more sense.

My second Lepus clone.

Parts based on the old MRI tubes are getting hard to find. The tube and cone for this came from eRockets.

Decals to follow.

Nice! I see the Lepus cone is no longer available, good thing I added one in my Zeus parts order, so I can clone a Lepus instead of opening my kit. Geez I need to get back to this Zeus project.
