Default North Coast Rocketry "First Edition" Kits

I have put the first three NCR kits "First Editions" on eBay.

The NCR “First Edition” kits are special “one-of-a-kind kits that I use to check the final version of the released kit. If they had a serial number, they would be #000, the one before the first one off the production line. Because of possible issues with the check, the final version of the kits will not be released quite yet, but you can get your hands on this one now.

Each kit comes with a signed certificate stating that it is the ‘First Edition”.

There will only be one of these produced for each new NCR kit, so they are guaranteed to be rare and collectable.

It also means I am close to shipping the production kits to Tim. I will not make an announcement until I know they have shipped, but they are close.

Matt

"Exclusive" was the word from Matt at NARCON.

Matt;

Could you comment whether the decals/markings for the kits will be self-adhesive, waterslide, or vinyl?

Hey Matt,
Nice to see the Archer back! I fly my Estes/NCR Archer all the time; it's always a crowd pleaser.

What's the word on the Black Hole Betty? (almost sounds a bit perverted)
One day you should tell us how that name came about...

It's a favorite of mine.

Allen

1) The decals are self adhesive on clear. As a matter of fact, there is a surprise for those who purchase the Lance Delta and the SA-14 Archer, but I won't give it away here.
2) I will not be able to attend Hellfire this year, as the date conflicts with NARAM, where I will be.
3) Tim Van Milligan's Apogee Components is the exclusive deal for NCR products. You will only be able to order the kits through Apogee.

Also, none of the old NCR kits will be released as they were issued before; however, you may see "refreshed" or updated versions of some. Downloadable Plan packs for all the old kits are planned to be available so that you can scratch build the old designs if you wish.
