After the launch

The launch ends.
The feeling stays.

We built this SLS for people who replay launches, follow every stage callout and notice the details most viewers miss. When the stream ends, the rocket is still there in front of you.

Three details

The details
you'll keep noticing.

01 — INSPECTION

See inside the upper stage

The Interim Cryogenic Propulsion Stage, or ICPS, separates and goes back into place, so you can inspect the upper stage outside the full stack.

Look closely at the markings
02 — FINISH

Look closely at the markings

The vehicle graphics are UV-printed directly onto the parts, not applied as decals. Look closely and you can read the smaller markings along the stack.

Built at our workbench
03 — ORIGIN

Built at our workbench

Every SLS is assembled, painted and finished by hand in our Italian workshop. Each one passes through our workbench before it ships.

What our customers say

From people who already own our rockets.

★★★★★

"Great care is put into these models. Contact is very personal. Keep in mind that a lot of work and manual labour goes into 3D modeling, yes even with printing. So be patient. This not mass produced off the shelves stuff. I'm proud of my purchase. In my opinion fine price/quality ratio."

"I am very happy with this model! The detail is excellent! Alex at spacerocketlab helped me through the purchase process all the way through assembly! Great people and great service! I will be buying more 3-D printed models from them in the future!"

★★★★★

"I'm just astonished how every little intricate detail is captured ! It's like I have the real Falcon Heavy in my home. 🚀 I'm a photographer, and space enthusiast also a long time fan of SpaceX. How I came upon these amazing models is by watching Marcus House on his YouTube channel who keeps me up to date on rocket launches."

Serial numbers run in a single sequence: the Founders Edition closed at #144 and the campaign continues from #145, assigned in order. Earlier numbers belong to long-time supporters and Founders who helped bring the project this far.

Campaign shipping window

Campaign models are estimated to ship from February through December 2027, after the Founders run. We dispatch them in order, so earlier orders enter the shipping queue first.

These are estimated dispatch windows, not delivery dates. Arrival time also depends on destination and transit time.

We ship worldwide. Shipping is calculated at checkout.

Why this campaign

This campaign builds the next SLS run.

For 30 days, your orders fund and help us plan the next SLS production run. That covers the work before a model leaves our workshop: printing the parts, finishing each one by hand, preparing the packaging and getting it ready to ship.

You order directly from Space Rocket Lab, the workshop that will build your model.

From the founder

I started by building the rockets I wanted to own.

Space Rocket Lab started in my bedroom because I couldn't find the rocket models I wanted on my own shelf. So I began making them.

Today our workshop also builds models for the Italian Space Agency and Thales Alenia Space. And now I get to make them for people who care about these vehicles as much as I do.

This campaign funds the next SLS run: printing the parts, finishing each model by hand and preparing it to ship.

If one ends up in your home, I hope it brings back a launch you stayed up for, or makes you look up one more detail about how the vehicle works.

Thank you for helping me build it.

Frequently Asked

Before you join the list.

The campaign
When does the campaign open?

The campaign opens here on 27 October 2026 and closes on 26 November at 23:59 Italian time.

What do I get by joining the list?

We'll email you when the campaign opens, with the link and the four ways to order. Right after signup, you can also choose the optional €1 / $1 VIP pass. It's refundable, credited toward your SLS if you order, and locks today's price (€474 in Italy, $565 in the US) instead of the campaign price (€499 in Italy, $599 in the US).

Does it cost anything to join?

No. Joining the list is free, does not commit you to buy, and you can unsubscribe at any time.

What are stretch goals?

FREE extras that unlock when the campaign reaches 100, 250 and 500 SLS models. Once unlocked, they go into every campaign box.

Product & Shipping
Will I need to assemble or paint the SLS?

No. Your SLS arrives assembled and painted, with its display base in the box. Put it on the base and it is ready to display.

Is the model shown here the one that will ship?

Yes. The 1:144 SLS shown on this page is the model we will produce and ship, with the same scale, components and hand-finished construction you see here.

When will my SLS ship?

We expect to dispatch campaign models between February and December 2027, in the order they were placed. Your exact window depends on your place in the production queue.

Do you ship to my country?

Yes. We ship worldwide, and shipping is calculated at checkout.

Before deciding
Will there be import duties?

If you are in the United States, Italy or the EU, you pay no import duties. EU orders ship from Italy inside the single market. US orders travel in pallets to the United States and are then delivered domestically.

For other destinations, import duties are set by the destination country.

What does the €1 / $1 VIP pass do?

After you join the list, you can choose the optional VIP pass. It locks today's price for €1 / $1, and the LMS-1E lunar regolith simulant sample comes with your SLS for FREE if you order through your private link on 27 October.

Can I change my mind?

Yes. If you later order an SLS and cancel before dispatch, we refund the order in full.

Will you email me a lot?

No. We'll write about the campaign opening and important SLS updates. You can unsubscribe at any time.

We'll email you when the campaign opens.

Leave your email and on 27 October we'll send you the campaign link, with the four ways to order your SLS.
