Dang, I noticed them available last night but figured they would not be numbered, so didn't order one.

Are these packaged any differently than the original batch? I want to build one sometime soon, but hate to break into a collectible one.

Sheryl sneaked them online without even telling ME!

They do have the blue headers. The first 300 did not.

Hey, I'm just checking your site out every hour or so waiting for the Saturn V to come out. Thank goodness I'm about to lose my job (our plant shuts down next month) so I can make sure that one doesn't slip past me.

It is not ready yet!

I am going to start a new thread soon about the SatV. I am going to send about 10 pre-production kits out to people that can give me quick feedback.

The reason this is time sensitive is the upcoming 40th anniversary. There is a buzz about 40 for the 40th.

Who are you sending them to? I'm sort of "burned out" after back to back Skill Level - 5
builds the past few months (Estes K-29 Saturn 1-B and the Noris 1/60 scale Vostok upgraded). Well, I suppose I could kick myself back into gear if I have to.....

Well, you know what they say, Dave...

...one good Saturn deserves another!

OK, I'm logging out now...

Ouch!

Carl, I hope that "40 for the 40th" isn't due before July! I don't think any of us could work that quickly! Not and do it justice, that is...

Consider me interested, nonetheless...

Carl, I'd be happy to be 1 of 10... if you need. If I know there is a deadline I can usually get stuff done pretty quick. Loads of time to build while the kids are at school and ample room to fly when I step out the back door(provided we don't get saturated with rain like we have been).
