There seems to be some sort of gantry shaded on the wall, so how about a bit of a rocket?..

Or some sort of silicone cartridge that someone has closed the nozzel with red tape....

This is giving me a nose bleed!!!!!!

This one is probably not very fair as it is another hobby of mine but it is a kit from airfix.

And the winner is Spanner, This model is one of the Jupiter C program that launched America's first Satellite Explorer 1 on the 31st of January 1958.
