My VAB acrylic arrived today also. It is #21/80. Another great one to add to my collection. Can't wait to see what's next.

VAB acrylic #80 arrived here today, just as I was watching Atlantis' return to KSC on NASA TV, so it was rather poignant to receive it. This acrylic is great, and I love the texture on the aluminum. I am definitely looking forward to the next in this series!

Just a little follow-up to the VAB acrylics. We did have seven acrylics produced with red pieces of VAB siding. These were from the red stripes on the flag painted on the VAB.

They were never put up for sale, and all but three were given to the supplier of the original VAB material. BUT... we are going to part with one of them, and it is listed in this Saturday's Lunar Legacies auction.

I'm the happy winner from the "red pieces" VAB flag acrylic. She is going to France.

I wanted to let everyone know that our latest acrylic is now available on the website. It is produced to match the other Cape acrylics. This one contains a stone collected after the STS-133 and STS-134 rollouts. The stone (stones) are then sitting in crushed (by crawler) rock collected after the STS-135 rollout. Price is $69.95. Production limited to 85 pieces.

Also... I have the last of the mega-sized Hubble insulation acrylics up on Ebay right now. Only 17 of these were produced. Seller ID roverpick1.

These are selling very quickly. Thanks to all who have purchased one. I think part of the attraction is the layout of the solid and crushed stone. Each one is unique and somewhat artistic.

Look for the following acrylics next year.

  • A Pad 19 piece that will contain a piece from the pad, a piece of the white room floor, and a section of the white tarp that hung on the side of the erector.

  • Mercury Mission Control acrylic

  • Complex 34 acrylic
A lot of folks also got left empty handed when we sold out of the VAB acrylics rather quickly. We may have something to offer next year that will contain some more VAB siding in it. Stay tuned.

Received my acrylic today 36/85. A really nice addition to go along with the others. The rock with the crushed rocks around it give it a nice touch. Look forward for the next in the series. Keep up the great work and thanks.

Thanks for the kind words Mike. I will be shipping more orders out on Monday. They are selling quite well. Was not real sure what to expect, but they did turn out quite nice.

Mine showed up today. Just as nice as all the others I've bought, and looks great with my launch pad collection! Looking forward to more of these. Thanks!

Ours arrived Saturday as well. We plan to display it by the flame trench acrylic which is next to the Saturn V on the LUT with simulated cawler way base.

I have now received mine also, and it is another great acrylic to add to those already produced.
