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!

Ebay listing, they have multiples, so this is allowed.

Don't waste your time on a resin widget.




Here's a link to my bracket on shapeways, since I won't be making them anymore.

I like how the name "Pump Widget" is still sticking long after its discovery.

I just contacted the seller, they do ship to Canada but at the high price of $35 USD shipping.

Is anyone in the US open to getting one on my behalf and gutting it, to just send the widget? This is how I got my last one through user "Quarax"

I can do that for you as I've already ordered one myself.

BTW, thanks for the friendly heads up on this one Matt. :D

Stimpy, I can help you out. I recently sent a Nostromo ash tray to a UK member and shipping came to $13.50. I imagine the isolated widget piece would cost the same. PM me if that would work for you!

I'm surprised that not everyone has jumped on these considering how many years people have been trying to ID and find them. And as Tom has already mentioned, thanks Matt for the heads up ;)

Have one more purchased and reserved. It's final destination is Australia. If you fellas want piggy back on postage for two pump widgets in a padded envelope, we can drive the postage down even lower.

It looks like there is one left. If anyone could get it and ship it to the UK for me, that would be great. The cheapest / slowest shipping will do fine, if there is any difference in shipping price.

And, we are sure this is the correct one, yes?

Looks like these have all sold out now and are on some sort of FedEx slow boat. The one I purchased last Sunday reports to be 'out on delivery' finally today. I would have guessed that USPS would have been more cost effective and definitely faster than this.

I added a link in the first post for shapeways 3d printing.



The holes in the widgets vary on Accucare, so you may need to do some hole drilling/filling.

Tommin, did it come with the coiled rubber tube? You'll need a length of that for the MT as well.

I didn't see one but I'm sure tubing isn't very difficult to locate.

Fellas, I am about to order one of Matt's brackets for mine as it makes for a perfect gasket to mount the widget beneath the Kango shell. There is still time to get a few of these stuffed into the padded envelopes that are being posted outside the US. This will not affect postage.
