Custom Trooper / Electro Binoculars

[Mike J.]

I just saw this and thought it might make an interesting base for a pair of custom electrobinoculars — for those of you who want something different from the standard sub games:

I see some on ebay for between 1 and 15 dollars. Might be able to find one at a thrift store or yard sale as well.

Best of all, your new toy will have actual optics. It ain't a telescope, but it might be fun to play with... Knobs and whatnot...

wtf? :confused

the front knob looks like yodas VD saber emmiter???

it looks like the supposed lamborghini wheel...

so maybe you could use that as a substitute?

that is a cool looking camera, it could deffinately be a random set of electro binocs from the SW universe. :thumbsup

The manual alleges that is the electronic exposure eye and f-stop selector.

You could stick some LEDs in it, or add some ridges to it...

I'm going to insist everyone get one of these and then modify it.

My Dad had one of those, it isn't very large as it is only a 110 type film camera.

I just posted something I found at a yardsale today, I thought might be the basis for Luke's Binoculars. What do you think?

I'm seriously considering modding mine.

Did a little minor disassembly today. I think I'm going to add some bulk and ribbing to it.
