Excellent news! I've just been informed by my AB Emblem rep that they have been given the go ahead by NASA to produce the NASA-designed flights patches for SpaceX's commercial resupply services flights 5 through 9 in the very near future (SpX-8 has already been released).

As soon as I get more information as to the availability of these I will let everyone know!

Joe, this is great news! Any thoughts of offering SpX-5 through 9 as a set? Thanks again!

I'll see what transpires and if I receive enough interest then I'll consider it.

I've received a message from AB that the SpaceX patches, CRS-5, 6, 7 and 9 will be available at the end of October/beginning of November. I've had many requests to sell these as a set and I will indeed do so! I will inform everyone of the pricing and arrival date as soon as I can.

Will you be selling them individually also since many of us have already purchased number 8?

Very exciting news and I look forward to adding them to my collection as well.

I have to ask if there are patches/emblems for SpaceX missions 1-4? If so, could they be offered?

As for SpX CRS 1 thru 4, haven't heard anything on those as of yet. If I do I will post the information here.

It is looking like none of the first production batches of these CRS SpX-5, SpX-6, and SpX-7 patches have the AB Emblem product number / date code embedded labels on. This is unusual for modern AB Emblem patches which now have them on, (except for the recent multi coloured flag and emblem trial backings, which looks to of been ended now?).

AB Emblem may well put the embedded labels on future production runs of the CRS/SpX patches. The labels do appear on the cellophane packets that the patches come in. I only know the SpX-7 at the moment. It is: 247038 USA 10/15/20.

SpX-8 is the only one of these patches so far to have the product number (247553) and date labels on. (08/19, 08/21, 08/31, 09/11, 9/17, and 10/2015).
