All new fig:
Printed legs (on the side) and maybe new simpson type legs, printed arms, shoulder pad colour
Soon very expensive except if in a future poly like Dark Maul in 2012

1953 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 four door sedan. Photographed at the J. C. Whitney Car Show, LaSalle, Illinois, May 3, 2015.
One L-Motor for turning the turret and one L-Motor in the turret to Trigger the rockets.
The tank is drriven by 4 XL-Motors gear Ratio 1:1 and has my usual Torsion bar suspention.
And frontlights.
A friend invited me to join him and his club for a rocket event called the Christmas Tree launch. Great fun.
The Rocket Launcher T34 (Calliope) was a tank-mounted multiple rocket launcher used by the United States Army during World War II.
I designed the logos and the rockets for an art show in L.A. The larger Rocket had custom lighting inside. by Tim Jester

The Picture Background is the interior of an R-12, showing the Four Combustion Chambers, the Turbo-pump and Pipes have been removed (Pervomaisk). At the top is a R-12 on it’s Transporter, possibly the only surviving R-12 Transporter (Havana). Second is an R-12 on the Launch Table at the Tsiolkovsky Museum (Kaluga). Next is a Diagram of the R-12. Then an R-5V Geophysical Rocket (Korolyov Museum, Zhytomyr) and last a Vostok Launch Vehicle at the Tsiolkovsky Museum (Kaluga).
Stephenson's Rocket was an early steam locomotive of 0-2-2 wheel arrangement, built in Newcastle at the Forth Street Works of Robert Stephenson and Company in 1829.
A common misconception is that Rocket was the first steam locomotive. In fact the first steam locomotive to run on tracks was built by Richard Trevithick 25 years earlier, but his designs were not developed beyond the experimental stage. Then followed the first commercially-successful twin-cylinder steam locomotives built by Matthew Murray in Holbeck for the Middleton Railway between Middleton and Leeds, West Yorkshire. George Stephenson, as well as a number of other engineers, had built steam locomotives before. Rocket was in some ways an evolution, not a revolution.
Rocket's claim to fame is that it was the first 'modern' locomotive, introducing several innovations that have been used on almost every steam locomotive built since. There have been differences in opinion regarding who should be given the credit for designing Rocket. George Stephenson had designed several locomotives before but none as advanced as Rocket. At the time that Rocket was being designed and built at the Forth Banks Works, he was living in Liverpool overseeing the building of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway. His son Robert had recently returned from a stint working in South America and resumed as managing director of Robert Stephenson and Company. He was in daily charge of designing and constructing the new locomotive. Although he was in frequent contact with his father in Liverpool and probably received advice from him, it is difficult not to give the majority of the credit for the design to Robert.
In 1862 Rocket was donated to the Patent Office Museum in London by the Thompsons of Milton Hall, near Brampton, in Cumbria. The locomotive is now exhibited at the Science Museum in London in much-modified form compared to its original state. Such are the changes in the engine from 1829 that The Engineer magazine, c.1884, concluded that "it seems to us indisputable that the Rocket of 1829 and 1830 were totally different engines".

The original Rocket on display at the National Railway Museum, York.
This engine brought together a number of design innovations in the one locomotive and is arguably the most important invention of the 19th Century, a proof of concept that has led to so much.
Rocket won the Rainhill Trials on the Liverpool & Manchester Railway on 15 September 1830, but during the initial procession from Liverpool to Manchester, ran down and killed William Huskisson, MP for Liverpool at Parkside.

I had a blowout in a field of Dames' Rocket to ight after supper! This is a wildflower I LOVE and there is a field of it, just going over now( and there WAS mustard too hut it has gone to seed!) The field is in a VERY inconvenient spot but DH drove me, parked and let me trek across the highway on ramp and into the tall grass and weeds! HEAVEN!!!!!
I love science fiction and space exploration and had this idea for a retro look rocket ship. I drew my inspiration from all sort of sources such as 2001 A Space Oddessy, Tintin: Explorers On The Moon, UFO the TV series, 50's sci-fi in general and of course good old NASA, especially the incredible pictures from the Cassini probe as it flew by Saturn. I wasn't going for an accurate depiction of Saturn and it's moons by the way, I just wanted a big ringed planet for my back drop.

Informative reference to this photograph and the whole concept of "weather" satellites...possibly since this one captured a hurricane (tropical storm actually) in action for the first time, is available at the following outstanding website:

A crappy photograph of it, but at least it still exists:

Note: No named hurricane was active the date this photograph was taken, 5 October 1954. Further research confirms that the "hurricane" was in fact a tropical depression, thus unnamed.
Rocket launched at Andøya Rocket Range. This is a NASA rocket that will measure meteorite dust in the ionosphere (150 km altitude). It only uses 3 minutes to reach this altitude!
