Teecrooz’s Prop Collection: Updated: February 4, 2025

Took a few tries, but I managed to get the correct squeegee for Boba Fett’s shin tools. You can see Art Andrews write-up on it here at TDH. I have versions 1, 2, and 4.

I also grabbed a chemical mixer. Might not be the correct age, but the price was right. I have a slightly different model on the way.

Shin Tools - More than you ever wanted to know about Boba Fett's Paterson Print Squeegee!

The Paterson print squeegee was one of the very first "found parts" I obtained, but it has taken me 15 years to get one that is an exact match to the one Boba Fett most often has on his costume. I say "most often" because I haven't seen all of them and some have surely been lost to time, but I...

Cool, man!!

That reminds me of the Kaiser grip that I totally passed up on eBay about six months ago. Congratulations to whoever got it!

Squeegees
My mind is blown. I had no idea!

A few years ago, while searching through old war stuff (looking for certain gun parts), I came across a WW1 button puller that I thought was very close.

As soon as I got it, I knew it wasn't what I thought it was.

Absolutely great collection you have!

Just gorgeous. Beautiful collection and really great display. Some people have great collections that are overcrowded but you managed to give everything room to breathe.

Thank you all!

Thank you! It is a struggle figuring out what to put out in the limited space I display it. That’s why I move things around constantly. I did like having some more of the figures out to give things context, but lately have been more focused on the props.

Ok, now spotlight on a personal project of mine. I looked for and almost bought a real cast/crew gift but then reached out to a member to help me make some instead. There wasn’t a ROTJ one made that I’m aware of, but I wanted to complete the set.
