Unlimited Run Deluxe Tron Disc Retrofit Kits

Can't wait until these ship and we start seeing the pics people post here of working samples. SI tells me he can match, or close to match my request for a Green or Aqua Blue/Green disc colors in order to look like my TRON 1.5 costume UV Strips and ELWire.

I hear a Quagmire song coming on soon!
 
If there was a way to have it glow a very subtle blue shade of white it would be awesome, but as white leds are... well... about as white as is possible I doubt there is that much control over it ;)

From what it looked like in the movie, the grid gave off that blue tone which is where that glow comes from, but at one point that hue turned off at Castor's and then you see that the glow on the suit went from a blue to just white.

I personally believe the natural color of the glow is natively white and altered by the atmosphere of the grid. I could be wrong, but that's how I took it. I need to see the film a third time, hehehe ;)
 
I spoke with Quantum and they confirmed the lights on Sam Flynn, Quorra are a light blue. Remember that Disneys post production added the "extra" glow to enhance the properties of the costumes and discs thus altering some of the practicle suit properties. The reality is that there were few practicle light up suits/ discs used in the film. The majority was done with CG rendering, and replicating characters.
 
Hello. I'm sorry to hijack this thread but could Lorna ( lil munki ) please get back to me in regards to non sent items via the UK Garrison. I'm sorry to have to bring this on here but you leave me and the others very little option as you have not replied to any pm's/ emails on the non delivery of paid goods but seem to be very active here.

Thanks

Don ( UK Garrison )
 
Tah-Dah!

YouTube - Illuminated TRON Disc Mod Front and Back - Full Kit

So I decided to go for illumination of the 'C' ring on both the front and back.

I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to do!

Only about an hr's worth of work to cut the 'C' shape out of the back half and battery compartment lid, sand the edges smooth and reduce the thickness of the second 'C' ring to allow enough space for the LEDs inside. I cut the second 'C' ring into three segments so I could still remove the battery compartment lid for easy battery changes. The back is visibly dimmer since the LEDs are firing straight up through the front, but I'm happy with the results! :thumbsup

I'm thinking to take the top part of two different discs and attaching the tops with earth magnets. I'll let you know the results when the kit arrives :)

That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!
Those of us whov'e already ordered the full set...are you now including the second "C" ring? or do we need to order these again from scratch?

Nice! Glad I ordered a second C-Ring
 
Finally sent in my payment...not for lack of money, but because I couldn't decide what options I wanted.

Decided to go for the basic kit, and I'm going to try my hand at illuminating it myself with surface mount LEDs in batches of 3 to get that wavy look, and an Arduino board for some start up animation and maybe some outer ring revolving. ****** this is going to get expensive...but so so worth it.

Thanks for making this run!
 
If I wanted to add another C-ring to the full kit with this mod you were recently able to figure out, would it push back the ship date?
