Please note that this photo is of a survivng Telepod from THE FLY II, not Cronenberg's film.
As a superfan of the movie, I can provide a few useful bits:
HD screencaps of virtually every shot in the film:

* There are some slight differences between the two main Telepods (the prototype pod is obviously different, with the solid metal door, the clunkier external components, and the different interior pattern). Telepod 2 has some extra components on the bottom front section, and lacks the porthole on the upper left side that Telepod 1 has.
* The pod exteriors were painted an off-black "cockroach" color, and the interiors were a light orange-gold color (which was often obscured by the blue-white lighting).
* The pods in FLY II were recreations of the originals, based on photo reference. There were no blueprints to work from. They're slightly different from the pods in the first film--the interiors are a bright orange, they have simpler detailing, and the door hinge structures are different.
* Aside from being connected to the freestanding user terminal, the pods in the first film were also connected to a large bank of equipment tucked in a corner of Brundle's lab.
And here's an extremely rare reference photo of Telepod 2 on-set--
Go Away Garage: Telepod from "The Fly"
It appears that this shot--or one very similar--served as reference for the painting used for the film's theatrical one-sheet poster--the one that features the human arm and fly leg coming out of the door--
without the door being open.

And, of course, the DVD and Blu-Ray versions of the film contain many photos, as well as test footage of the pods during various stages of experimentation with the lighting effects.
It boggles my mind that a good Telepod replica has never been made, even as a smaller-scale diorama or model kit.
It also amazes me that no one's ever replicated this as a paper prop:

I did a photo google search with no luck. Thinking I'll have to just make the model with screencaps of the movie.
