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!

And as you can see in that first pic, the slide viewer will have a real 1/4" mono plug molded in. So you can make the slide viewer removable if you use a female plug on the body to jack it in with.


All good. I know I can come up with something for a viewbox that will still look pretty dang close to the real deal and have the functionality. I'll just call it the MT Mark 2. =) Hurry up with that sale thread Spat. :)

I'll make it. But in order to wear it, you'll need a hacksaw and a lot of towels!

If I hadn't gotten busy today with a prop rental, I would have had the Cruz armor done! Tomorrow I'll be on set because my dog is in a movie (I know!). If she wraps early I'll start strapping it and probably finish it on Sunday.

I'm curious to see how it looks too. Seeing the fully tricked out SMG and Battle Rifle would also be freaking awesome!

Can't wait to see the assembled motion tracker and the flame thrower, and I think the WY PMC armor would be awesome!

Ok, so here's a comparison between the Recon and the standard chest armor:

And here's the new "Medium Armor". Basically, the standard armor, but without shoulders:

And Belle nailed it, of course! She's quite the little actress these days!

First build up of the Tracker Kit! It assembles really quick! This was about 45 minutes from a pile of parts to this! And that's with stopping to take pics for the tutorial along the way! I'll paint it tomorrow.

For those who keep thinking they can fit a phone into the Tracker. Here's a pic of the Tracker lens on top of an iPhone 4S. As you can see, in order to get an iPhone in there, you would need to double the size of the Slide Viewer on the kit, which would just be HUGE!!!

And I just fixed the button in the store. So the Tracker kits are live. I also just fixed up the instructions page for it.
