Default MISSING Semroc Kits!

Over the past ten years, we have serialized over 5000 model rocket kits. Only the first 30 to 100 of each kit has a production number included with the kit. We keep the first five production numbered kits here at the Semroc World Headquarters (formal living room), but all the rest are out there somewhere.

We consider them missing since we do not know where they wound up over the years, so we are bringing in the highly successful milk carton to help us. Each day at 8:00 PM EDT, our website will select a kit and a serial number to place on the carton. If you have the matching production number decal for that kit and post a photo of that decal in this thread within 24 hours, we will offer a $10.00 Semroc Gift Certificate as a reward. You don't have to have the kit, bagged or built, just the decal.

We already have our first winner since we started this on the SAM forum. Eagle3 had #12 of the WAC Corporal. Congratulations, Eagle 3!

The second entry is the Aerobee 300 #21. It is a coincidence that the first two are Deci-scale kits.

This is a wonderful promotion.

There's one problem in my case. I GIVE AWAY lots of Semroc kits, as gifts and promotions.

I hope I didn't give away a winner!

I have been watching the MISSING kits, sort of. I have no idea who got most of the serial numbers. There are a few exceptions.

But, I have a pretty good list for the Sky of Gold and #51 is registered to someone that posts here all the time.

All hail "J", all hail "J".
