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!

Hey Matt, do you have one of those boxes? If so can you tell me the dimensions please?

It says 11 x 7 x 2" on the site. That's probably not exact though.

The 11x7 is pretty accurate.
The height of my box is 2. 5/16"
For our immediate needs the height is not too terribly critical...so have at it...whatever it is youre having at..;)

LOL! I wasn't watching this thread.

I also drew the label out but I didn't think anybody would be interested as it's 'only' Alien³!

It doesn't HAVE to be only Alien 3 ;) After all, it still has The Company logo on it :D

Here's something I did for the Bay Area Prop Party this weekend, Nov 15th.

Those are some great labels guys. Love them all. Really enjoyed the High Velocity Projectile one :lol:


Did you guys actually drawl the hands and fire ? They both look exact.


Loads of Laughs

Speaking for myself, I first tried searching the web because I assumed the 'flammable' and 'do not jostle' (?) symbols would be real, existing ones... after a while I hadn't found them, so I just re-drew them from the photo. When I was a graphic designer I used to have to do that kind of thing all the time. :)

Yup, all of mine I had to build from scratch too. One would think those symbols were already available but I couldn't find them. ...nor could I find the correct fonts for this. :roll:

Anyhow, I couldn't resist putting one together.

Presenting my fastest most unscreenaccurate replica ever!!! :P

After looking at it, I got to thinking...can anyone produce a screen capture from A3 actually showing this box??? With all the hilarious cgi and photoshop funnies lately, I'm having my doubts about this one. :D
