Reproduction sword was offered by BudK as a "Mason's Sword" but is a repro Nationale Volksarmee parade sabre. Fun Fact: still tie-wrapped into the scabbard since the first furcon it was brought to. Completes the ensemble nicely.

Love it!
Both versions!  I actually liked the animated eyes, not bad.
Cheered me up!

Thanks Rocket T. Coyote!

p.s.
Not sure why any of the YouTube commenters even care about what sexuality the people are in the suit.  They are just there to entertain and share the fun, after all.  And each viewer can use their imagination as they see fit.

Cool!   :o :)
 What made the nose section take longer to deploy the 'chute? Or is the booster that much more heavy and I'm just seeing things?

Will we be seeing a Gemini launch anytime in the near future?

The booster is the heavier part of that rocket and speed of the video was slowed down about 50% as the model is only travelling for about five seconds actual time. The upper portion is somewhat fragile and needs to come down separately.

Working on a 1:48 scale Gemini Titan cardstock model, but the project is stalled for now.

A prairie wolf and a Moon rocket...







That little Saturn V is a kit made with laser-cut parts. Not cheap. The Estes RTF Saturn V is a bit less expensive.

Fifty years ago we sent men to the Moon. They tried to send a wolf to the Moon a few years sooner.

They made a 1960's style Supermarionation puppet show during lockdown in the UK recently. Here is the first installment. Enjoy!
