(I'm fairly certain that the ISS set is the same used by The Big Bang Theory.)

Any opportunities for reproductions hitting the market again?

Robert Pearlman

The only reproduction (of which I am aware) that Coca-Cola marketed to the public was a plastic version sold through Space Camp. It would be great if that could be offered again, though I know of no plans to do so.

Otherwise, the other high-fidelity replicas were limited desktop displays distributed to museums and Coca-Cola bottlers. They were never really intended to be sold.

Went to see "The Monuments Men" today and this was shown before the movie!! It looks great on the big screen.

Love it!
