Soda syphon - ESB part? Maybe more?

look at all the trouble i caused, all you guys are up late nights too looking for this stuff?! I'm glad I'm not a lone... that teal one tom looks real close!!!

What was the original thread that started this I am given to wonder?

most if not all of them are broken now... thats to photo bucket..

the last jedi has a great picture of the other end of the O2 system, when rey is jumping in the escape pod there is a O2 setup hanging on the wall. a lot more greeblies on the tank then i thought...
 
I would hope to replicate what we saw in 1980, not 2017, as there are probably differences, likes Solo's blaster: it meets the 6 foot test.

One of the (very few!) perks of living in the UK is that we have LOADS of the correct vintage soda syphons on eBayUK. Picked this one up for £4:

And I looked this out from the back of a cupboard (I bought a pair years ago from an RPF member who was doing runs of the cast for the AT-AT helmet):

Vintage dive mask ordered from eBay. And Nebulizer mask. I'm HOPING that the nebulizer mask I receive actually looks like the one in the picture....

Ready to join the fun.... :)


It's a long shot, but do you have a spare charger holder? Can't find any correct ones :(
 
So, reference images? These are the best that I've come across from the online Blu Ray gallery (cropped):

Breath mask greeblie details:

The 2 above appear to have domed, almost hemispherical details either side of the nose, whereas on the one below they appear flat/stepped a bit like half a popper stud:

Does anyone else see that, or is it just me? Could be a trick of the lighting if the piece is made from transparent plastic? Or different greeblies were used on the two (Han and Leia) masks, which were mixed up between takes by the actors?

While checking for the availability of a suitable scuba mask, I found another possible candidate for the clear domed greeblies...vents from a pair of chemical safety goggles. The prop dept already used a breathing mask, why not another item from the chemical/ medical context?!

Obviously not the correct vents, but the size/ diameter seems to match and there are plenty of differently styled vents
 
TLJ has a great shot of it while Rey is claiming in the escape pod on the falcon

Not sure, but wasn't the TFA version a newly built one and doesn't match the original? (like Jyn's in Rogue One)

yup, i heard they were built just for TFA, the top parts look like they could have used the same part. in TLJ we see the bottom of the tank pretty good and the greeblies on it
 
I thought the same thing and removed the ones from my (beat up) goggles for that purpose :thumbsup

Are we referring to the same thing?

I was asking about an accurate Soda charger holder, you seem to refer to the scuba mask strap (which I need as well). Found a few, but the newer masks seem to feature differently styled straps.

BTW: It seems that Leias and Hans mask have different straps?!
 
Are we referring to the same thing?

No, got confused.

I'm referring to the vent portion of the goggles to use in the hole in the mask.
Just need to find the right size, or someone could model it and offer it for sale on Shapeways.
