Looks better than the V1.0 they gave us.

Nice! Where can I get one?

(too bad all the models aren't to scale, though... but it is an impressive lineup!)

Do the landing legs work?

I wish they still let me play with the *real* toys. I miss working hands-on with flight hardware. Consoles, launch teams, data reviews, reports and presentations are good for a bit, but I miss using real tools!

Here's the full lineup. Conspicuous by its absence is Taurus XL. Not sure where that big Pegasus came from....just kinda showed up.

Is the thread title serious?

Do you believe SpaceX invoiced the government for a lobby model of one of their launch vehicles?

Wonder why the paint doesn't match the real one...?

I've always wondered why their concept visuals never match with the real deal.... they've always had those black interstages on concepts, but only ever flown them on Falcon 1.

Why do you think "us" is the government?

Makes much more sense to be the organisation that he works for.
