Flash Gordons space Rocketship XM

At one time the yellow model of Flash Gordons Rocketship XM was on the
Lower Hudson Valley web site but when I checked I was unable to download it. I e-mail them but I haven't heard anything back yet. Is it just me or does the Lower Hudson Valley have a problem? Next question is, does anyone have another site for this model? I Googled it and found nothing other then sites redirecting back to the Lower Hudson Valley site or would anyone have this model and I could PM you with e-mail address? Thank you guys. wc

What, it's been over two hours and I'm the first to respond? This forum is going downhill fast! Of course I'm kidding. So here's the info.

Mike Hungerford is the designer of this model and his website can be found at:

Mike Hungerford: Rocketship X-M Model

He created an uncolored version of this model to be printed on metallic paper or any color you want. The model instructions are also on his site. John Leslie re-colored it to be the comic book version and Mike has a link to that version on his website. The direct link to the yellow model is:

Hope this helps.

Thank you Curt, it was the yellow one I was after. What ever the problem is at Lower Hudson is I hope they can fix it. Thank you again for your kind help. wc

That was an old link on the LHV site

I know from experience that it is difficult to keep up with posted links. They go bad after a while

I love Flash Gordon and the old Buster Crabbe serials.
I love the comic book artwork aswell.

I would like to create a Flash Gordon Rocket...so I might just do it.

Thanks for the Rocketship X-M link! I noticed that this Mike Minor design was released in styrene and was just about to do a search for this subject. This design was done to replace the original V-2 footage by Wade Williams who was then able to copyright this old chestnut 20 years ago.
