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!

I seem to recall Matsuo had some?

And I know Stephen 210 had some, but I don't know if he made them in bulk.

I was going to say Matsuo too, he'd be my first port of call if I needed these.

I know Matt was working on some, and he and I were working out a deal so I would include them in future sets of my armor. But still waiting for him to finish a batch!

So, soon!

I can do plastic ones all day long...(and probably will) but to get the metal ones made will take a load of cash to start up, theres a minimum order amount at the sheet metal works, and I just can't spare it.

I do plan on going for it but I haven't heard back from the sheet metal guy, that and I can't pay for it anyway if he did start it.

I think after the Dragon Con rush is over I can focus on it.

Would anyone really care if they were made of plastic? I personally wouldn't.

Depending on cost, I'd be interested in metal ones. :)

I thought you JUST said you could make them all day long?

How long are the days out by you, anyway?

It was 1.5 years ago but I got mine from Stephan210. They're metal, but it's thin sheet metal that was cut and bent to shape. I had originally thought they'd be machined or die cast but these work just fine. They aren't going anywhere and it's not like they're actually used to support a pack or anything.

Why is your lower back plate upside down? Am I missing something?
