May 2025 Scheduled Launch
CENJARS,
It's that time again, our monthly scheduled launch.
The weather forecasts have changed to a more favorable outlook for Sunday but just be aware that it may be necessary to postpone Sunday's launch if things turn for the worst. Please, do NOT venture out to the launch site without first consulting the CENJARS website on Sunday morning! If the weather does not look favorable, I will post a cancelation early Sunday morning. It's the best I can do with the crazy weather patterns we've experience this season.
This launch should be chock full of fun, tomfoolery, character rockets and costumes. May 4th day, Cinco de Mayo, and a few birthday's this month. There are details in the forum.
Keep your fingers crossed that we can launch!
Holidays and observances that some may wish to celebrate for this launch:
Monty Python and the Holy Grain 50th anniversary in the US (April 28)
Harry Potter Day (May 2)
May the 4th (Star Wars Day)

I'll be there. Given the questionable weather I will probably not bring as many kits and such but will have all my usual motors. If there are specific parts or kits you're interested in, drop me a line or place an order via the webstore to ensure they make the trip. Use the coupon PO0T214IRE44 at checkout on the webstore (https://rocketshipgames.com/store/) and select Self-Pickup By Special Arrangement as the delivery method for the CENJARS 15% discount (some products excluded).
So far I've got orders from Charlie K and Chris O to bring along.
Looking forward to celebrating one of the true foundational masterworks of the science fiction canon: The Mummy, premiered on May 4 1999.
