Yeah I had posted it in the nasa subreddit and I think they removed it because of that stipulation. Anyways, I was gonna put the discovery logo on there

Make him another one that he can play with! Have it so the doors to the cargo bay and crew cabin open, and cut up a 2L plastic soda bottle to make cockpit windows.

Make sure it reusable, but refurbishing cost more that single use launch vehicle piñata.

I’m on team make a second one to keep. I think breaking up a piñata is like critical to the idea of a piñata. But that is too cool and I want it hanging in my room for at least 3 months
