Here is a site with the Apollo 11 1/25 scale model for $106.64 plus shipping. Looks like a great price for those who want to pick one up.

Did anyone already order an Apollo 11 capsule from the above website? Do they ship internationally? E-mailed them but so far no response...

Philip, did you order a capsule? In case you did.... has it been delivered? Any feedback you can provide will be good. I called the company and no answer and you said they did not reply to you. It seems a bit risky business! The offer price is very good maybe to good to be true.

Indeed, they answered my e-mail but while ordering via PayPal, both my browser and anti-virus software gave a warning that the site cannot be trusted (not the temporary security certificate warning that asserts that the content can be trusted!).

Moreover, the site automatically tries to register you with your PayPal account information, so I backed out and changed all my passwords, deleted all cookies, defragmented my hard disks... the whole lot.

I'm not making any judgments on that website, just explaining what I encountered but check eBay, there are a few at US $130.00 from trusted dealers...

The Revell 1:32 CSM (#5086).

The paint guide says the CSM floor (behind the seats, parallel to the heatshield) is light brown, with the "boxes" light grey. The photos I have seen say light grey and sometimes white sections... but I can't find any images so far (I'm still looking). My own from KSC / Huntsville / etc don't show the floor colour.

Any help would be appreciated.
