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!

Did we ever manage to ID the types of lockers used on the SULACO? We have loads of different types at work and they are nothing like any of them… and some of them are OLD…

I see a calculator, a floppy drive (3.5"?), top pieces were from a computer of some sort I think. It looks really familiar but I can not remember where.

The widget is a Dixons Solar 7 calculator, paired next to an ACT Apricot PC 3.5 inch floppy drive bay shroud. The top we haven't identified yet.

Would be cool to see if the lockers themselves are a found item or if they too were fabricated for the film.

It would be nice if we could amass everything we knew about the lockers in one post. I have done some searching and it’s scattered far and wide

I think it is a combination. I think they either vaccuum formed or cast the stuff.

No. They had plenty of each item. They were not vacuformed or cast. The Apricot PCs were reject mouldings the same as the various Ferguson television backs which they got from a factory in Slough.

This post is a bit redundant since I just posted this same photo in the "ultimate found item" thread. But in the spirit of trying to unite all the locker info into one thread, I thought it should be included here too.

The correct (and really close/basically the same but diff color) keypad source

Now maybe some day we can ID the stainless locker brand/model!
