When I was a kid, my father bought me a model of a 3-stage rocket. It

Lindberg Satellite Launcher; they used the same molds (except for the top stage) with their "Transport Rocket". The Transport Rocket is fairly common on eBay, but the Satellite Launcher is rather scare. Pictures and a brief history of the Transport Rocket can be found at
