I'll never forget the rumble of those twin solid rocket boosters shaking the ground on the big IMAX screen at Kennedy Space Center. What I really love about this Metal Earth kit is that it features the full launch stack—external tank, boosters, and orbiter—which gives it such a commanding vertical presence on a bookshelf or desk. Plus, they include the different nameplates so you can dedicate the build to your favorite orbiter. It’s a very rewarding weekend build for any space history buff!\" \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fascinations","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49306385252491,"sku":"SPC-SHTTL-LNCH-STCK-KT","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0706\/7028\/6987\/files\/0013767_premium-series-space-shuttle-launch-kit.jpg?v=1788468203","url":"https:\/\/bracken-observatory.com\/products\/space-shuttle-launch-metal-earth-3d-model-kit","provider":"Bracken Observatory®","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
