Help me with this, please! :)

I need help identifying a little thing, I'm speaking about the little red knobs. They goe on the Boba Fett helmet. Here are some pics. Please, help us (Fett fans)! :rolleyes

I'm not sure what those pieces are specifically, but I can tell you that it *may* be a part from the MQ-1 Calculator circuit board. that's already in place

 

[KaanE]

I'm pretty sure they're not. The MQ-1 board doesn't has any led. Look at this pic of TDH posted by ART ANDREWS:

They're not on the board, I'm pretty sure. They look to be from a scale model, but who knows.

They look a bit like the lids from push-pencil refill tubes.

Looks like a air valve cap from a bycycle tire to me.

That's what they reckon at TDH, valve caps from tyres.

Looks like a air valve cap from a bycycle tire to me.

Could they be an old style of Marette (sp?) The caps you use to twist household wiring together.

 

[micdavis]

Wire nuts?

That's what the first pic reminded me off! If you look closely they appear to be tapered which would be right for a Marette. The second pic not so much so I can't say for certain!
Best of luck, Petseal

Looks like on/off switches (twist).
I have some floor lamps that look very similar and they have a numbers on the top as well. It is a floor lamp with three posable lamps.
One says 15, another says 04, the other says 07.

I would start looking at on/off switches.

[KaanE]

The on/off switches were my first try but I never found anything close, similar? yep, but not close

 

[KaanE]

A little bump :confused

 

[ralphee]

Anodised valve caps is the only thought i have, and i dont mean car, i get a BMX jive, did any of the ILM crew ride a Skyway with funky Mag wheels back in the day? LOL.

These buttons are way too small to be a tire valve.
I'm telling you, I'll bet you anything they are a vintage on/off twist switch.

So they could have been used as an on/off switch on the jetpacks?

That's interesting...

Aren't one of these found on the one of the gauntlets as well, maybe it was functional (not the ones on the helmet of course).

On the PP#1, PP#2, PP#3 & ESB right gaunts two switches are seen, one red and one white.

These have been identified as orthodontic files used in root canals etc.
there a thread on tdh about it.
I would link it, but I'm typing with my phone and can't figure that out lol

 

[Madrid Boba]

They look to me like the the things that were used to adjust the vertical and horizontal lines found in the back of the old computer monitors.

Or even the ones used on the monitor cables...
