3:19 where can i find a saturn v like that one? i have looked all over just wondering what brand and scale it is

[@DrawbarFlats1]

Fine collection. It's comforting to see there are those who still have a passion for engineering and space exploration. I hope and pray that our youth will find that same passion. If only we can convince the current POTUS and Congress to give NASA/JPL the funding they need to continue skyward. The hero's of my youth are fading away. Will we ever see a re-awakening of the desire to explore and learn.

[@A_Nobbit]

honestly, i'm a bit jealous of this. nice collection, tho.

[@Speicher34]

Amazing! This is what I call Hobby Virus! Congratulations! AWESOME!

[@goodteacup]

Don't know where you live, but this collection would make a great museum in the vicinity of the Cape!

[@honeydew5022]

I wanna be him when I grow up

[@kanyeeast5555]

Soon littel jimmy soon

[@k.mirenburg6766]

I loved his model collection which must be worth a small fortune. Does he ever exhibit the models to the public? He has dedicated a large portion of his home to this wonderful hobby. Thanks for posting this video.

[@AdmiralPreparedness]

As a former Hobby Shop owner (Inside & Out Hobbies, LLC est 2005 - ended 2014, I loved it when customers would bring in a finished model of something from the space program. I would put them on display and hold a semi annual model show so they could win prized.....Now all I do is sit back and sell what I have left on E bay.....

[@papaversomniferum5247]

Shame.... The good ole days have ended :( I really loved my card shop and hobby shop in town... Now they are the most boring places because people want the dumbest stuff nowadays.... Damnit, it's so sad! What's wrong with the world...

[@jtleon7086]

Wow, simply incredible! The world's #1 aeronautic space junkie; i wish Billy was my neighbor, he'd be tired of me pickin' his brain.

[@DaveMerc]

I used to really enjoy listening to his explanations of the space programs. Unfortunately Billy has passed on to that great NASA command center in the sky. God rest his soul. His wife still has the rocket collection as far as I know.

[@jtleon7086]

***** So sad. I had a friend who had an extensive nascar collection and when he passed, his family just gave his collection to children. I sure hope his family will take pride in the collection as he did. RIP Billy

[@TheTrueMichael]

Dave Merc Productions God take care of his soul....

[@harrywalker1308]

amazing! were do you get all your models from Iam a collector and I would just love to own a redstone rocket

[@AstroHopefulBenjaminGottsch]

Were does he get his stuff because I need this.

[@fluffyx2976]

I bet u forgot about this comment

[@RichC1524]

First off, thank you for making and posting the video. I know it is now 7 years old, but I just found it. I just completed my first model ever (Revell Saturn V) and couldn’t believe Billy’s unbelievably amazing collection as I watched this. He must have been an incredible person. Thank you again for sharing this.

[@DaveMerc]

You're very welcome! I am glad I got to film his collection and Billy is greatly missed.

[@timlipinski2571]

Great video and display ! Visit New Mexico the rocket friendly State ! Also visit Roswell< New Mexico for the FREE City Museum with Prof. Goddard's workshop with the rockets he built (not models) ! Do you have a model of the SNC Dream Chaser that can return gently to a Spaceport near you ? Thank you for the video ! tjl

[@SephirothEGS]

Would literally kill for even half the Soviet/Russian models he has. (1:00) Mostly the R-7/Sputnik/Vostok/Soyuz Rockets. Models of Soviet or Russian rockets are so hard to find.

[@josephdickson3531]

I'd be like a kid in a candy shop there! How do you get so many different models? on second thought, I might be like a bull in a china shop with how delicate they look... :'/ I would like to know more about these rockets now, it was a nice little video! ^_^

[@shamsingh6862]

Hi Billy, Very kind of you to go through your collections. Can you advise where can i get those astronaut figures as most companies have discontinued their release. Thanks

[@molo2793]

Rest in peace comrade

[@tammyblosser33]

NASA, launch Billy to space in a cool rocket! He can design his own suit.

[@yankeydoodoodoo]

Wow! Beautiful collection of American History..

[@maartendeklein7420]

Thank you for posting. Awesome collection.

[@thumper11954]

[@MrLARGENINCHARGE]

That is an AWESOME collection you've got there my brotha...thanks for sharing!!!

[@DaveMerc]

Thanks! Very few people get to see this amazing collection. I was able to get this on video because Billy is related to my wife. There is so much history there it is impossible to take it all in at one time.

[@goldgabich6863]

Very impressive collection!

[@goodteacup]

I’ll build that museum....can I make an offer!

[@friarrodneyburnap4336]

Jesus is the only answer...John 3:16

[@kanyeeast5555]

Lol I'm watching this in 2020 now you need space x rockets

[@DaveMerc]

Billy passed on a while back.

[@htiz5147]

That guy has the coolest room ever

[@Alpatriod]

This is what I am trying to make my bees room look like I'm getting there

[@DaveMerc]

Alpatriod I think it took him 20 years to make that collection and it's still a work in progress.

[@MrDoneboy]

Where is the Gemini-Titan, my fellow space junkie!

[@schumifan78]

There is a Gemini-Titan clearly visible at 2:37 : )

[@joeylafko1003]

This is actually the best thing I've seen today! Did I see the shuttle with the space operations center?

[@DaveMerc]

Yes he had several models of the shuttle.

[@luciusvorenus9445]

Awesome collection, Billy. Very extensive.

[@alex_inside]

He owns a Energija Buran, wow where did he find this stuff? Did he build it himself?

[@DaveMerc]

He did build some of the models himself. I don't know which ones and now that he is gone we will probably never know.

[@alex_inside]

@@DaveMerc RIP, his collection was truly beautiful.

[@JERRYR708]

I enjoyed the tour of your space museum. So much to see.

[@DaveMerc]

[@leco109]

HOLY.....!

[@jakkularavindrarao3372]

supper and mind blowing collection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@DaveMerc]

Jakkula Ravindrarao I agree. Billy has spent years putting it all together and now he needs more space :-)

[@papaversomniferum5247]

Supper Lolol dinner time?

[@api9mm]

No V2?

[@Tyrannosaurus_rex.]

Don't quote me on this, but i think Billy might be obsessed.

[@tamarapittman8108]

I LOVE BILLY!

[@robadams8057]

Looks like his shuttle models have black wings like Columbia.

[@DaveMerc]

Billy must have been a Columbia fan.

[@TheTrueMichael]

Dave Merc Productions I am a Columbia fan too...

[@robadams8057]

Achim Samir Mihail unless he just didn't realize that Columbia's black wings were unique.

We're going back to the moon in 2024 I believe?

[@Tizniter]

wow

[@vermontvermont9292]

This is an amazing collection. I hope mine gets this big.

[@magniko3614]

I just want a saturn v model

[@justinpubg7348]

There was a saturn V didint you hear??

[@hichamdadi3506]

I saw some nazi flags, astronauts and rockets.😶

[@schumifan78]

The Nazis put the first man made object in space, a V-2 rocket. Werner Von Braun was also instrumental in the design of the Saturn V moon rocket. Just because truth may not sit well, it doesn't stop it being true.

[@danielcrazed1583]

im guessing it was for historical purposes. the nazi had a space program to ignore it would be a mistake for someone being historically accurate

[@Jake-rc4xi]

Cool

[@Tyrannosaurus_rex.]

How do you clean and dust in this room???

[@Tyrannosaurus_rex.]

But still i would love to have all of that

[@imsonicnoob2112]

I finally found my nostalgia!

[@vidsfsx]

really lovely!! really nice

[@DaveMerc]

Billy has a wonderful collection. Some day I am going to ask him how he keeps the dust off of all those models :-)

[@haydengalante8036]

Cool collection

[@DaveMerc]

Hayden Galante Thanks! Billy has made it even bigger now.

[@joeylafko1003]

Where can I buy these?

[@DaveMerc]

He scratch built many of them himself. Some items he got off Ebay. That's all I know. Billy has gone to heaven now.

[@foerdie]

dmerc00 im so sorry to hear about that i hope those rocket blast off to him

[@joeylafko1003]

dmercØØ RTP oh my god I'm so sorry. May he Rest In Peace. His collection was one I've never seen

[@yusofahmad2814]
