Prometheus: flashlights, knives and other found items

[cavx]

The propmaster saved some cash on these! :lol

They are cheap chinese rip-offs of the Sure-Fire brand

And better looking with out the 'petaled' end rim.

 

[phase pistol]

Well that's the question now... IS there a Sure-Fire (or other brand) that looks like this but which has the flat ribbed end rim?

If so, that could be the actual prop.

...petaled end rim...

FWIW, industry nomenclature for that configuration is: "scalloped bezel". :cool

 

[phase pistol]

Thanks. Now please hold the scallops. :cool

 

[Jathoris]

Yep, or 'crenelated' bezel. They're awesome for sternum rubs...but they can be pretty dang sharp too.

 

[Riceball]

Crenelated bezels are popular with tactical flashlight makers, allows the user to use the flashlight as an improvised weapon but I've heard that the TSA sometimes frowns on them.

Anyhow, back on topic, anybody else found any other found item finds?

 

[Apollo]

Maybe I know for a while on certain models of Sure-fires you could switch out the crenalited to flat.

So I guess our options are, (1) a different model or brand was used in the film, or (2) this is the flashlight but the bezel was swapped out or modified.

 

[phase pistol]

Research continuing.. apparently what my flashlight has, is called a "strike bezel" (probably because you can hurt people with it :lol )... so now we need to find a flat bezel as a replacement part... :confused

Something like this looks about right, but it's a bezel for a rifle-mounted light

Noomi's Gerber Remix...

 

[phase pistol]

Here's what appears to be Noomi using a different, three-lamp flashlight...

 

[Confusius]

That one is a Fenix TK 45.

 

[Alan Cross]

Wow. You guys are the best flashlight ID detectives EVER! Really cool!

Wow. You guys are the best flashlight ID detectives EVER! Really cool!

I kno right! lol

 

[phase pistol]

Gero over on Propsummit found an even better match... the MTE-P7-D-SSC

 

[Colonialone]

Well the Gerber Ripstop is used prominetly in the film by the geologist (Pictured above with mohawk) to cut an alienesque eels head off thereby killing himself with the acid that projected from the creature.

Bro you know that's a spoiler right? Thanks..........:behave

See wasn't that easy?

Has anyone found the identity of the ice/fire axe?

 

[Jathoris]

Need some help with the belts they wear on the suits. They look like blackhawks or cobras, but not too sure. Also, the pouches on them..Do these exist or were they created for the film and does anyone know what could work for the light saber looking thing on the right side/back of the belt? I know that's actually a battery pack or receiver that is used to power the suits/cameras in real life..but wonder what the heck it is.

 

[Jodo]

Any idea on what's his face's patches? Or are they custom like I assume they are?
