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!

Spooky, forget selling your soul, I'm beginning to think you are some kind of Prop Wizard, proficient in all the arcane knowledge of location and aqcuisition!!!!

Congratulations, you are definitely an inspiration to us all. :)

Sometimes it`s inspiring to see that things can be found and are no mystical items.
Found that one here on eBay just 4 hours before the auction ends. :P
Just luck, I didn`t search for it for weeks :lol:

Don`t ask me why I find so much stuff, I have a 9 hour working day, a family and need 8 hours of sleep too.

I know it`s the "wrong" model, that means the IR sensor is not square like the one on the walls in the colony, but the box is exact the same.

My luck that the seller didn`t mention "superswitch" in the auction text.....so it was not really expensive :lol:





just do it !

Stephan, does that casing open up down the seam on the side?

Are we going to see fiberglass castings someday of this item? :)

(I'm not asking if they're for SALE, I'm just asking if it will someday be done. :) )

Surely, if it's a found part, everyday item, then it's okay?
It's up to us what we use it for :)

the casing open at the seemline but the front is part of the lower half. I`ll post some more pics ASAP.

On the back is the battery cover where you can insert 6 AA or 1 9V battery. There`s a contact switch on the back, I`m not sure what it does, maybe to start the alarm if someone try to remove the alarm from the table or wall.

For the movie they glued on two small plastic cards/plates on the back, these cover the switch and company label and are not part of the intruder alarm.
The inner batterie chamber was removed to fit in the rechargeables for the shoulder lamp.

I don`t have the skills to make fibreglass copies of the box but I`ll try to learn about resin castings much as possible.

After taking a close look to the box last night, I`m sure that I don`t want to use that one for my shoulder lamp because the condition is new. I`ll display it next to a shoulder lamp replica to show what they used as base.

....and of course I need an intruder alarm to protect my collection :lol:

"batt*" under Security category was the key.....simple eh ?

Loads of people are searching under "Superswitch" cus it`s the info you can read on Master Harry`s homepage. That`s what I meant with "expensive".....

The auction ends with only 2 bidders (me including), so the box was more than a bargain (18,50 Euro incl. shipping)

did you mean you can check past (ended) eBay auctions ????

How is that possible ?? I thought you can`t search for ended auctions ?

I just generate "my search" on eBay with "batt*" only in the category "Sicherheitstechnik"......which is an under-category of "house( or home)/garden"....

Mhhhhh, ear defenders, these are the next items on my list (after the lamp arm)...god thanks if you find one pair you can make two grunts happy ;)

I couldn't find a Security/ Sicherheit section anywhere on Ebay.com or Ebay.de
Did you mean he 'Home' section?

In fact I searched all items past and present, using "Batt*"
as a reference and couldn't find the alarm auction.

Has the auction already been deleted or am I possibly looking in the wrong area?

Finding an alarm box and the original earmuffs has become the bane of my existence!
