Pemberton Technologies - Kraken Gallery

[mbeels]

oh wow, those BP motors have a great effect in low light. Is that your Kraken?

Yeppers. Working on a lighted Starship Nova. Those fat pods are just begging to be lighted.
Laters.

Nice! I'm digging the light body with dark inside the tube fins. I was just thinking about how that might look. I foresee another Kraken in my future.

Ever drag race em??

Does anyone know if Pemberton Technologies is still doing business during the pandemic? I ordered a Kraken a while back and paid through PayPal and have heard nothing. Hope they are just really busy.

I’m right there with ya.
My kid and I just got into rocketry and I hate all the armed forces replicas and love the weird space themes of Pemberton but I’ve emailed, called, messages on FB and no responses. I didn’t even receive and order confirmation. Just PayPal saying that they paid Pemberton.
After trying my best to contact them this past week I just put in a dispute with PayPal to get my money back.

I really really hope it’s not covid related. I’m new to this and don’t know how small an operation Pemberton is and hope everyone is okay. Regardless though I’m bummed. I bought (but never got) the Bucky Jones and planned to buy the 3FNC, King Kraken, and Space Ark.

I noticed many stores being out of stock on Pemberton kits even before the pandemic. Red flag in my book.

Just heard from them. They suffered some “tragedy” but are back up and running next week. Sad to hear something bad but glad they are pulling though as a company.

... Sad to hear something bad but glad they are pulling though as a company.

I agree. So maybe a yellow flag now and a green one very soon.

 

[DocTwinkie]

Just notified of shipment.

I just received an email from PayPal saying that my package has been mailed with a tracking number. Also a note from Mr Pemberton saying that my Kraken was on the way. Maybe yours will be coming soon too.
