SPACEX PR — You can now build and fly your very own 1:88 scale model of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket with the Dragon spacecraft.

The Falcon 9/Dragon model kit includes a molded nose and tail, along with full color stickers for the body and nose (no painting required).  The finished model stands 58 cm (22.8 in) tall. It has molded transparent fins for flight, which can be removed for display. Dual parachutes return the Falcon 9 and Dragon spacecraft separately to Earth.

The model kits are in production and will be made available over Amazon.com in the coming weeks.  To reserve one, visit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B006GX14R8 and add the Falcon 9 and Dragon model to your personal Wish List. You will receive an email as soon as the kits reach the warehouse shelves and are ready to ship.

    Single engine. So, Falcon 1.

    (OTOH, reusable single stage, so maybe Grasshopper.)
