Hello guys!

I found this pic of a kit on the internet and have several questions now. I know, itīs not russian or soviet stuff so it may out of topic.

Iīm looking for this kit to buy but havenīt found anything about it on the internet. Please, I do not want to start a flame war why Iīm looking for this kit or that I support DPRK or anything like that. No politics please, Iīm just looking for this kit. So, If anyone of you know a source OUTSIDE DPRK (if there is one?), drop me a line, itīs greatly appreciated. Any Info about the kit is appreciated as well. The box-art shouldnīt be a reason for censorship outside DPRK as I can remember of old Lindberg-kits with soviet national insignias.



Thanks in advance

Best regards,

Andy T.

Hello, this is a korean Rocket called " Taepo Dong-1" (using help of Gunter Krebsī website)
http://space.skyrocket.de/doc_lau/pekdosan-1.htm

Some others called it Taepo Dong-2: http://www.friends-partners.org/pipermail/fpspace/2007-March/022168.html

Perhaps you know the links and pictures, but I donīt have more information about it.

PS: Censorship of insignias (in germany) is reduced to german WW2-signs.

Certainly is an interesting kit, I'd be interested in adding one to the collection, just for the heck of it.

Hy Guys, thanks for your responses. well, I guessed its a TD-1 but was unsure about it. Thanks for clearing that up Soeren!
I now contacted some people over in a south-korean forum, maybe one of them can help me to get a hold of the kit. If so, I will let you know. Maybe there are other interesting DPRK kits around???

Best regards,

Andy T.

Looks like an add for a male enhancement product with a Korean version of "Smiling Bob."
