Ehnn... It's ok. I've been working on one like that. Only, I was making mine brown, with UPS logos on the fins. Interstellar Delivery!

That was my first clone I built back in....I'm embarrassed to say...1989.

9 nose cones!

Back about 1999 when I was a Big Brother (my Little Brother is now 21 and in the Air Force) His first clone was the Bident (Trident II).

Only 7 nose cones.

I think everyone should thank me.

Every time I get together parts for a clone, in some cases hand-turning custom parts, Semroc goes and makes my efforts look foolish by releasing a kit.

Bastards! ;-)

Hey, did I tell everyone I'm cloning the Centuri Little Joe II? The fancy cluster version?

Thanks for the tip! I'll start putting some money aside for the Semroc version! :chuckle:

This is just an xKit; a bag of parts to clone the original and not a full-blown kit!

It does not include the decals, but we have them in stock. We have had so many people ask for the parts as a set, we quietly released the xKit, knowing we were working on the kit for eventual release with full instructions and decals (and a higher price.)

Don't tell Sheryl I said this, but if you ask her for decals with the xKit, she will probably send you a set. But don't tell her I mentioned it!

Sharp eyes will see much more in the works over the next few weeks in preparation for NARAM.

Hey, did I tell everyone I'm cloning the Centuri Little Joe II? The fancy cluster version?Nice try! That is one I wish we WERE doing because I never built the one we got during Semroc's early days. I still have the instructions so someone at Semroc must have ordered one.

I don't want to spoil Carl's fun but it does appear that at least one of the new kits is going to be STELLAR! ;)

Those who are in the know will never betray their sacred oath of secrecy, signed in blood. They could tell you, but then they would have to kill you.

I wondered what jobs those government guys took after shutting down the "distant viewing" projects.

I think I've ordered 3-4 times in last two weeks, so missed this one multiple times. At this point, I'm afraid to order it for fear I'd have to admit to my wife I have an uncurable Semroc addiction. It might have to wait 'till NARAM or the release of the Saturn V, whichever comes first.
