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!

spats camera body castings are so good that the pentax lens just screws right on, but i added a small bit of epoxy just to be safe :)

I mention it in the Armor FAQ, always add some glue. Just in case.

My camera body isn't Spat's but my Pentax lens screwed in perfectly. I think I superglued it in to be sure.
