Nice lookin' bird! I want one but working my way up to it, build skills-wise
 
Cool. I see you added the Meow that the guy in the other Thread suggested. It's definitly better with the Meow.

And no MGM copy rights violated. But let's see more of the Rocket like lift off video and cool paint scheme variations!

The place I launched from is a few miles away, I don't have a car since I gave up driving. I have a camera, but I can't seem to find anyone that is interested in model rockets around here to go with. I could try another Craigslist's ad, I got some responses but no follow throughs.
 
Bummer. Any place where people are not interested in model rockets sounds like that town in Footloose where they don't dance. Time to be like Kevin Bacon but only with model rockets. Everybody get Launch-loose, Launch-loose, pick up your Sunday chutes!

Way too clever for me-I was laffing so hard I couldn't respond in time-now it's gonna be stuck in my head all day. You need to go to the TRF penalty box!

I got so excited I forgot to hit the post button! Damm, son! You don't need to drive-let Hollywood come to you! That was most impressive. I dub thee "Mr. Stanley Shrox" That was just cool beyond belief for this old codger. Shrox roxx!

OK, I guess I need a time out in the TRF penalty box, but only if I can take my Care Bear with the rocket on his tummy, all my building supplies and a Shrox kit. Keep the Shrox kits coming with a little food, water and TP and I won't come out for a very long time.

Select Shrockets come with food and water...well, crumbs and humidity maybe.
 
Does the kit come with the blinkers?
Anywhoo- Cool...
How about a heavy metal vid for the next one?
Roc n roll and lazers and bombs and stuff and when the dust settles..out comes a shrox bird.

That is the SHXBlackFox, it is going to be an HPR bird. 3" to 4" diameter.

Me drooling, wallet trembling, wife blood pressure rising...oh the anticipation.
 
thot to myself "Hmm-maybe she won't notice an extra rocket in the spare bathroom...after all, she still has the bedroom and kitchen...wait, okay, she still has the bedroom- I'm down for one!)!

Awww, maaan! (whining voice)

I've been waiting for that one to be released, but I don't do HPR. Any chance of an LPR or MPR version?
 
More going in the mail tomorrow! Mailing labels firmed taped this time...
