Yeah, we're making a few of these to walk around in at D*Con to promote our vendor table. Even got the voice distorter hooked to speekers in the suits so when we walk around....

"People of Dragon Con attention...people of Dragon Con attention...for the best prices in the galaxy goto J & J Movie Props..."

I know, silly right? But we have fun and really thats all we care about :lol
When we're not usen them they'll be on display there with our original movie poster from it.

So I guess this just turned into a "WIP" thread wish I knew how to change titles !

A ref pic I happen to have handy.

I rented this a few weeks ago thru iTunes, and you have the option of a 'moderate' HD rental. I think it's out on blu-ray, too.

Very first test fit. We're very happy with it...needs a lot more sanding though.

 

[CousinDave]

I love it!

 

[Mike J.]

I wasn't sure how big it was until now. Hard to judge scale on a featureless blob.

It looks like a clam ate your head :lol

Looks great so far - good luck!

This is shaping up nicely.
I saw this movie for the first time a few weeks ago on TCM.
Really cool.
Ray Harryhausen was such a master.

What happened next?

Does anyone know what that device is that is on the table, in the foreground in the photo in post 28?

It was in "Forbidden Planet", "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.", "I Spy", and Lord knows what else. In TMFU episodes they had it powered, and the white tubes on the side were lighted.

It's a prop from out of The Undersea Kingdom. It was not in Forbidden Planet.

It was in "Forbidden Planet", it is in the background during the Klystron Frequency Modulator scene. It is on a tall tripod and has a large clear dish on it. Mr Day, you are the person that told me what it was on the All Sci-Fi Board.

David.

 

[RobertDay]

You're correct. I was thinking it was a separate unit.
