Well,
the last to show for the moment :)
We have a great friend in our group, he is black, so he is the best Apone i ever have seen.
And as a real Apone, u do not only need a cigarr, also u need a binocular.
So i start the search for original parts.
aigh, soon it was clear...that kind of money i will not spend for a prop.
The original bino from the german army u can only get here or europe...thats ok, i am HERE,
but it costs toooooo much.
so, searching for a alternativ stuff.
i found an kids toy bino from china what looks a little bit like the one out of the movie.
I decided to buy 2 of them, for my APONE and for myself.

I just did the paintjob, like the tracker again and created an beld-clip.

Here it is:

Cheers and thanx for watching,
Pino

u can find infos about the original here in the Forum.

The Infrared Binoculars prop is a pair of real night vision goggles — the Fero D-51 (or Image-Intensifier Goggles BM 8208), which were used by the German Army.
not allowd to ship out because its still in use. costs about 2000€ here, used.
u can find the toy in Amazon.co.uk in that Moment.
search for
"DUSIEC 4x30mm Day Pop-up Night Vision Night Scope Binoculars Telescope,Best Gift for Child"
or at Google picture search
" obest night scope"

An ABSOLUTELY AMAZING layered weathering job on those Pino! Seriously. Amazing. 8)

Several years back I stumbled across one of those toys at a local thrift store here in the states, and snagged it up with the exact same intentions.

It's basically identical to yours except for a different finger-grip pattern, and they are labeled 'Spy' Night Scope (Copyright 2001 Wild Planet Toys, Inc.).

I have yet to re-paint them. Only in my dreams would they turn out as well as yours. When it comes to prop building, I'm more of an engineer/designer and less of a painter. :?

Once again -- excellent paintwork!
