PENROSE, Colorado USA — Estes-Cox Corporation has brought back one of the old time favorites for 2007, the Mean Machine™. Standing 79 inches tall and measuring 1.64 inches in diameter, the Mean Machine is the tallest rocket in the Estes fleet. For years the Mean Machine was enjoyed by thousands who enjoyed the shear size of the rocket.
Also joining the line-up for 2007 is the radical new Pop Fly™, a 24 inch tall rocket shaped like a baseball bat. The Pop Fly features a baseball that sits on the top of the rocket that deploys at apogee. Measuring 1.79 inches in diameter, the Pop Fly should be a big "hit".
