Amazon Prime Day is fast approaching; it kicks off on July 8, and for the first time ever, it will be a four-day sales event, running through to July 11. It's the online retailer's annual Summer sales event where we usually see sizable discounts across a huge range of products. To make the most of the event, you'll have to sign up to be a Prime member to gain access to exclusive offers.

This Estes Tandem-X Launch Set deal is enough to warrant not waiting for the event to start, though. For your money, you get two rockets, a suitable launch set, parachutes and easy-to-assemble parts for the Amazon rocket. The two rockets can reach a projected maximum altitude of 600 and 1150 feet, respectively. You will, however, need a suitable engine, recovery wadding and batteries, which are sold separately.

Key features: Two rockets, a launch pad, parachutes and easy-to-assemble parts.

Price history: Before today's deal, we've seen this model rocket set retail for as high as $57, but we haven't seen it this low this year. Over the last few years, we've seen it retail for as low as $30. So, this deal is actually good value ahead of Amazon Prime Day.

Price comparison: Amazon: $35.99 | Walmart: $39.99

✅ Buy it if: You want a two-in-one model rocket set, ideal for those with little to no experience.
