Is Marco Enterprises still around?

[tinstar5541]

For some reason, I was thinking about this guy and found this thread. Here are my Marco props I bought from in 1982 out of his garage in Anaheim.

These are both metal and very heavy; not cheap chrome plated plastic. The holster was full leather and well made. The blaster is a complete replica with a solid barrel. It field strips like a real Mauser (I have a real one for comparison)

Hi guys, just thought I'd add some new video on this subject and show you all my Marco Ent Luke Blaster.....

Those pieces look pretty great considering. I got his catalogue in the early 90s and things were too expensive for me then.

He is selling on eBay and his catalog again as well brings back the memories I spent around 1500.00 got almost everything I had back in the 90's and then some got a few prototypes and armor sets captain power dredd trooper and Vader helmets which is a cool prop have all 3 versions he did and a burnt one. It was fun to see the old stuff and it is what he had in storage when he was shut down is vintage.

He made the best Viper pilot helmets back in the day. I had one from him and loved it. I wonder if he is still making those?

Since I just dug these back up, I will necro post with a fresh upload to a new location, seeing that Printroom is years gone.

I spoke with him recently and he was using resin cast MGCs for his blasters. Wouldn’t sell me a cast, told me to buy the whole thing and take it apart lol

Was there a point when he was using real MGCs? That picture above of the one that can field strip is a real one…looks like

Thought you folks would like to see my Marco X-Wing helmet from the 90's .....

I still have a Marco stormtrooper suit.

Since this thread is re-alived, I thought I’d add that I used my old Marco TK as the base for my Disco Trooper suit.

I think I got my first set of USCM Colonial Marine patches from Marco Ent. back in like 1987-88.

A few years ago I bought 2 TOS Tricorder kits, built 1, and a TMP phaser and a few other things.

The Tric is nice! the rest of the stuff is cool in a 1980's way. Various degrees of accuracy, but back then they were
all we had.

I like them for what they are.
