Finally placed the barrel into my Spooner gun, so time to post some pics of my I, Robot props:
The badge is the latest version of Gordon Gekko (he'll probably do a run of an improved badge in the future). Lights up by pressing a button on the back of the wallet. Battery can be replaced by unscrewing the back. Bought this badge from Darth Clayton:
The gun is another story. Bought this quite a while ago from bolsoncerrado. According to him, this gun was a commission for SD Studios (sorry for mentioning this name
), made by Matsuo. However, I bought the gun without the barrel (wasn't there anymore for some reason). Stored away this gun with the thought that some day, I'd search for a barrel and finish it.
More than a year later, stapleton13 offered a Spooner gun kit. I asked him if I could get only the barrel part and this was no problem. So I sanded out the hole in the front so the barrel fitted nicely. Also had to shorten the barrel with 6 mm. But after that, the barrel slides in the gun nicely and even stays put without having to glue it down. Since I will only display this gun, I won't glue the barrel, but just leave it slided into the gun. It even stays in place when you normally handle the gun.
While I do like the I, Robot movie, I'm not a big fan, but I do like these two props very much, since they just look so cool.
