Collector's Edition Giant Custom "The Moon" Rocket Cabinet by Jeff Brewer of Cool Rockets. This is a one-off, 6' tall cabinet in the form of a gorgeous, snazzy 1950's moon rocket! It's a custom job, so you may need to commission your own, and I don't have any idea about the price. It's based on the 12" tall cast resin Fleet Edition rocket, which is arguably more affordable at $64.95. Jeff custom builds, molds, and hand-casts these in resin, then paints and hand-weathers them to perfection. I've have a few friends with these sitting on their desks, and I've long coveted them! -- John Park
