Hi Turbo,

It is nice to see that Estes will be reissuing the Optima as a Pro Series II kit, along with the new Athena-H! Also, the Constellation and Black Star Voyager are nice bring backs, as well!

Kind regards,

The Optima isn't really a re-issue. It has a different cone and I believe it's .1" smaller in diameter. Hence the name Optima Pro. Similar design and decals.

It will be interesting whether Estes will consider a company 3D printing those parts as legitimate...

It looks like the pod was cut off the black fin in the Constellation picture.

Would like to see about actual release date on that Athena-H.
Fall IS HERE.

The new Optima has a cone that is longer and pointier.
