Universal soldier eyepiece

[marsattack]

Hi guys , I personally thought UNIVERSAL SOLDIER was an ok movie, did not think much of DOLPH's acting though :lol, but nevertheless a cool story.
Not sure if anyone has asked or if it has been recognised already here , but does anyone know or have any part or knowledge of the eye targeting /camera sight they wear?
I have no idea , I am currently re doing the Aliens marine camera and sight but I would not mind having this one aswell.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Marcel

No photo reference, so this is from memory. I think it was from an old viewfinder off a VHS camcorder.

I've got a buddy who used to own a JCVD costume, with headgear.

I'll give him a call tomorrow and see if he still has it...

Hey just to bump this thread.
Was any photos, ref info taken from the original headset? As I`d like to build one too as I would love to put together a complete UniSol costume.

Thank`s

I'll make a call today

you might have better luck if you put this in the costuming forum
(have a mod move it)

Some cool costume design in this flick. Thought I'd bump it with some pics.

Also this is in the wrong forum.

Bumping an old thread.....

So, does anyone have any ref pics of the eyepiece/headset?

EDIT: Found these online from when one went up for sale on eBay a while back:

So, can anyone identify the parts?

 

[Hangar18Studios]

I think my friend Jeff owns the original.

 

[nick daring]

Great pictures! I'd love to know what the parts are to this piece.

This thread is 3 years old, man.

So? My interest is about a week old.

Yeah, I don't get wjhy people get upset about old threads being brought back.

I like seeing old discussions being reinvigorated rather than new ones having to "rediscover" old info.

hi guys.
i did receive those pics a while ago, but never got round to starting these.
I ended up doing the Smartgunners sight , then another project and so on.
I looked on ebay for hours to see if i could match that lens, no luck.

I wanted to do one for myself , but if a few of you are interested, i would not mind helping out.

Awe that's a bummer. I had hoped that the project had been done but just wasn't updated.

Shouldn't be too hard...
