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!

The belt tool was based on a now (very) hard to find toy pop gun (that fired little rubber darts).

The unaltered toy (sorry I couldn't find a bigger pic).


So I was in Target and noticed a small foam dart gun by a nerf-knockoff company "BoomCo" called a "Clipfire" gun:

I immediately thought this looked similar to our belt tools and figured (with a little work) it would be much easier to find alternative!

Yeah, that's what I thought, Belt tool v.2...and with a built-in clip for carrying! Nice find Kevin.
