Great for what it is
This kit is a great first step for people who want to start designing their first rockets without instructions. It's widely avialable for $40 online and has enough parts to put together about 5 rockets. If you look at what you get for $8 a rocket I think you'll find this kit is priced well. If you are truly an advanced rocket builder you will want to go another route, but this works well for starting designers.
Not what it once was
There was a time when I was a kid when the Estes Designers Special was the scratchbuilders dream. Unfortunately, time has passed and things have changed, and the once sought after Special has become something of a junkmans special. Estes includes some cool items in the set, (mine had the transition for an Astron Avenger,) but for the most part they pack it with stuff that they're having trouble moving elsewhere. A grab bag would be a cool idea, but at this price I expect something better than a garbage skow.
