I just received the first batch of REJECT stickers. Mine are 1 inch x 3.5 inches. The color looks closer to safety orange in person but photographs lighter. It's hard to judge because these are gloss vinyl.


Edit:
so i tried weathering one of these stickers.
40 grit takes the gloss off pretty easy but getting the ink to fade is ridiculously hard.
In the picture starting from the left is nothing, 400 grit, 120 grit, a metal file.
These stickers are really tough.

The info here is awesome, great work everyone.
As I'm pretty skinny I'm going to try and make a Chappie suit/costume. I've planned it out roughly and I'm confident it can be done without changing the pieces too much.

So here is my mockup laser printed data plate with the reject sticker. It may be off ever so slightly but honestly, it's as close as I am likely to get until they release better source material.

I do like those stickers! Good job!
Looks incredibly good over the data plate...

This is my replica of the Tetravaal Visitors' Pass. A reporter wearing one of these can be seen with Michelle Bradley in stills from the film. I don't know if this shows up on screen. The front side is based on the auction images. The back is entirely guesswork.

The same 'assembly instructions' apply.

And now we get to the good stuff.

Here's my replica of Vincent Moore's ID tag. This is based on close-ups from the auctions and from promotional stills. Both sides should be very accurate, if I do say so myself. I do wish I had a better mug shot of Vincent, but the original props look kinda washed-out themselves.

Same assembly instructions apply.

Hey everyone! I don't post a lot on here, but I wanted to say thanks for the references happening on this forum! I am using some in the creation of my Chappie cosplay!

if you'd like to take a look, head to my blog: http://caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamravioli.tumblr.com/tagged/Chappie


I've been posting a lot of my updates on there! : ) Thanks in advance if you guys like what I have so far, I need to finish this before this coming Thursday for Emerald City Comic Con!

See you there if you live in Seattle or making the trip! : )

 

[Mike J.]

That's awesome!

How nitpicky do you want us to get? :lol

Don't forget your "Crush" decal on the chest!

And the RSAP patch!

What is that made of? Foamcore?

Wow that's fantastic. I just put in an order for the crush and data plate stickers. Im thinking I'm gonna sell them in sets (reject, crush, and data plate). I'll let you know when I get them in. Great work, keep it up.

The antenna looks like a 8 dbi wifi antenna.

Looks like the label was made to cover the logo. I made a nice little freebie label as i assume they just use these things to cover other things too.


As a side note, I'm trying to get to the bottom of the ISBN mystery and the numbers happen to be the 9 digit zipcode of a town in Ohio.

Probably just a coincidence.

 

[Mike J.]

That's the second case they've put up. The first one had some additional decals.

Wes is correct; I have positively ID'ed the Guard Key as a Logitech Mouse USB Nano Receiver.

Previously posted auction photos of one of the Guard Keys show both sides of the USB plug, and on one of them is an FCC ID number. This ID number was granted to Logitech in 2012. If these same photos show that the interior of the plug is red (and I think they do), then Weta used the black & red model. These go for about $10 on eBay.

The real trick will be making the decals.

[Mike J.]

The Guard Key cases seem to be clear Pelican 1010 micro cases.

Note the position of the Tetravaal label: covering the Pelican label.

 

[Caplan]

Yes is the Webley MK I, I have the old model 1887, very cool guns.

[CaptainEO]

Awesome Mike! Any better pics of that yellow access sticker on the guard key case?

 

[Mike J.]

Unfortunately, no. I can recognize the black logo on it as one from Elysium, however. "MAKAS" I think.

... At least, not until it goes up for auction.
