As I mentioned last year, some pointers:
  • We all don't know exactly what you do, rocketry wise; mention if you prefer / only fly LPR, MPR or HPR
  • Don't ask for just big $$$ items. you may not think $50 is a lot, but someone likely does..
  • Realize that you SS might be an LPR / L0 / new guy, and has no idea about HPR parts & such.
  • Be specific. If you say "anything" expect anything. But again, the SS looks at this and thinks.. "I have no idea what to get this guy, who only posts 3 times a year.. I hope he likes the limited edition gold foil Micromax Andromeda"
  • The bigger the list, the better we can choose & tailor the gift for you!
  • Your list doesn't have to be 'just rockets', but think about tools, paints, bench caddies, field boxes, a tarp, an easy-up / sun shade, etc..
I mention this, as I've had a few lists in the past, and looking up the receiver's post history, I was like.. "Uhm.. OK, an Estes skill 1 kit and a 4"x 36" FG BT, green.."
The first thing on my list is the limited edition gold foil Micromax Andromeda- how did you know? 🤔 ;)

I'm in for this, missed it last year.

Small wish list: MPR, HPR stuff, already have tons of LPR stuff - If my sendee happens to like LPR they will be happy.

Kevlar line for big heavy rockets (1/4")
38mm LOC motor mount tubing
Fiberglass body tubing from Mach1 Rocketry - BT-55, BT-60, BT-70 sizes with 2" x 3/32" (4x) slots for fins
 
It's nice to see a confirmation that I'm in.

Anyways here's my wishlist in a bit more readable form than a single massive block of text. I'm interested in all levels of rocketry, and I should be getting my L2 soon.

Kits: I like the more visually interesting kits, and I need to rebuild a good collection of sport fliers. Anything from 13mm to L2 appeals to me.

Motor Hardware: The RMS 29/40-120 hardware would give me a lot more options for midpower flying. I don't have much in the way of 38mm hardware, so one of the larger CTI casings or the AT 38/1080 would be nice.

Motors: I'm not sure if this is feasible, but I've seen other people listing them. I can make use of any CTI 29mm reload. If you're feeling especially generous, I can also use almost anything that fits in the AT 38/600, 38/480, or 38/360. I also have a CTI 54 1G casing. I'm also really interested in the new H13 from Aerotech.

Recovery: I can always use more 1/4" tubular Kevlar for my builds. I've also fallen in love with the soft quicklinks from BAMA recovery, I'd love to have more. A few of the smaller 12"-18" Top Flite Recovery thin mil chutes would be nice to have as well. Any cable cutter system (Prairie Twister/Archetype/Piranha).

Electronics: Any altimeters that can fit in a 29mm tube would be nice for my current projects. I'd especially like and RRC2, RRC3, or Easymini to get more variety (I currently have Ravens, Stratologgers, and some Eggtimers). An Easytimer would also be nice, as I'm planning to get into multistage flights soon. I'd also appreciate getting literally any Apple product (used is perfectly fine) that can be used with the Featherweight GPS tracker; I've been procrastinating on getting the last part of the system.

Tools: A good hobby knife and mat would be nice. Some sort of jig for beveling fins by hand would be great; something like this for 1/8" and 1/16" fins would be amazing. I could always use more Rocketpoxy.

Miscellaneous: AMW ProX or Wildman gift cards would be nice.

Sorry for rambling on a bit there. Hopefully whoever draws me will find this useful.

Wellllll... Why not. I'm in.

I fly mostly high power stuff, but have been flying some smaller stuff with my daughter.
I like short stubby rockets. The 4" Squat would round out my Madcow 4" short squatties. Micro Magg would be a perfect fit as well.
Everything I fly uses electronics and the Apogee is perfect for putting in the nose cones of short stubbies. I even like short stubby motors, 1 grain motors are super simple and easy.

Kits:
Wildman Sport series - Drago, Shapeshifter, Jart, Darkstar; 2.6" Goblin, 3" Jart
LOC Lil Nuke, Onyx, Micro Magg, T-Loc, T-Loc 2.63, Nano Magg, 4" Goblin, 29SS
Madcow 4" Squat, 54mm Viper
Binder Jackhammer
PML Striker

Motor stuffs:
Pro54 1 grain motor/case
Pro24 hardware
Aerotech 29/120 motor
Aerotech 29/100 motor
Loki 76mm #40 nozzle
Loki 38/480 motor

Stuffs to go in motor stuffs:
AT 29/40-120 reloads
AT 29/180 reloads
Loki 38/120 reloads
Loki 38/240 reloads

Misc stuffs:
BlackAero Eggfinder case
Gift Certificate to Chris' Rocket Supplies
3" Quantum tube
4" Quantum tube
5" fiberglass 3:1 or 4:1 nose cone
Eggtimer Quantum, mini WiFi switch, Apogees
Flightsketch mini

Dear Santa,

I love everything related to rocketry, from MMX to full HPR- I'm currently L1, moving up to L2 is certainly something I'm considering. I've also been looking into water rockets, but have yet to get any...

The first thing on my list is the limited edition gold foil Micromax Andromeda 🤣

I would love any kit from Fliskits, or the Squirrel Works (with a preference to the sci fi series)
Estes Skylab Saturn V, Saturn 1B
Mach 1, any 18mm kit, or the Groove Tube 4" ;-)
I can always use 1010 rail buttons and button standoffs
Drogue chute, 18" to 24"
Nomex, for 4" or smaller is always in demand
Thin/medium/thick CA glue, 15/30 minute epoxy


Thanks for doing this Papa Elf!
 
Update to my list:

Wildman Beta Lance (or Mach 1's offering)
