Hello all,
We here at Prop Store have a item in our warehouse that we are trying to identify. We thought we would open it up to all the talented people here on the RPF to see if we can identify it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
First off, this item is a "Futuristic Fishing Pole", now it might not be in fact a fishing pole prop, but has been nicknamed that due to it's appearance, as you can see in the images below. This piece comes to us from a well known prop maker who worked on such films as "Battle Beyond the Stars", "Masters of the Universe" and many other science fiction films spanning the 70's and the 80's.
Any helpful hints or information would be greatly appreciated!

As you can see the main control box has a spin knob on the side like a fishing pole, and features a faux keypad on the top. There are three LED lights located on the top that are powered by a battery in the main housing, but is not functional.
And the main pole features a series of clear green acrylic discs. There is also fishing line coming from the main control box running through the discs to the tip of the pole.
