The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I have searched for this but cannot find. I have seen Harry's prop in person and want to recreate.

Does anyone have the report that goes on it? I made a quick computer template of the label, wish I had a type writer but no go.
Courier New font size 12. I know the rounded corners on the label is wrong.

Does the label look ok?

Thanks!

Here is the 2nd. Not much changed but the boldness of some characters. Thinking it makes it look a little more typewritten.
Simplified Arabic Text font Size 12

This is awesome, man I wish I still had floppy discs, used to have mountains of them. I find it very weird that they were able to paint that disc and reassemble it so flawlessly. cant wrap my head around that. i remember pulling those things apart and theyd get all bent up and the spring was impossible to fix.

Guess who is getting 10 blue ones in the mail today? Just need to get my batch of brown bess made, print labels and I am in business. Of course they will not have any information on them for now.

Thanks!

I bet someone could put something really cool on them though. maybe that would play in a gridcase.
