Someone at Sunward has been leafing through old Canaroc Catalogs....


The new Gravity Rider looks a lot like the old Canaroc Starship Antares:

The new address for sunward is in Toronto. I wonder if the new owners of Sunward are actually part of the old Canaroc team??

Pretty cool, huh?

Hey Phred,

Yes, Taras Tataryn confirmed on the OldRockets list that he is working with Angelo at Sunward in getting old renamed Canaroc designs out to the public again. They look great!

BTW, I noticed the other day that people were looking for you over at TRF.

That sounds great to me!! I loved thiose old Canaroc kits.

Thanks for the 'heads up' on TRF. I will check it out. I have been away on business here and there lately.

Hey, that's great news about Sunward's Canaroc re-vamped re-releases!

For me, it's too late for a Gravity rider, as I've already got a Starship Antares underway.

The Galactic Wave and the Rocket Glider certainly look attractive.

I've a serious longing for something like the Canaroc Starcruiser Warlock, though. Here's hoping!

I agree. A Warlock clone would be great as well.

My Gravity Rider and Galactic Wave arrived Saturday. Ordered them Friday from Uncle Mike's web store. How's that for speedy delivery!?

Kit parts look great! Looking forward to getting started on both of them. :)

Probably not until the June JMRC launch. I can't make the trip down south this weekend. Working on adopting a new pooch and have to make a trip out to the sanctuary Saturday. :)

Hopefully youll have one of those sunward kits done by then :). See you in June and thanks again.
