Unlimited Run Falcon targetting computer kits + Machined aluminium Michell replica greeblies

Thanks,
M4 screw on the back like most of my other greeblies
I say most because I made a mistake at some point, forgot I used M4, and did the pointy michell part with an M3 screw... So, depending on the greeblies, M3 or M4 screws (included each time!).
Cheers
Hey there,
aluminium greeblies kit added to my website now to put together the Falcon gun turret display
supergreenprops.com
there are just 3 in stock for now as all parts are also stocked on the website separately and i don't know the interest. if they run out, I should be able to restock those in about one day as only the big knobs will be missing, the rest I have plenty made already
I hope this helps looking forward to see a few builds shaping up

Aluminium Falcon turret display kit
Aluminium greebly kit to put together the display for the Falcon gun turret prop. All the metal greeblies and stickers are included, you just need to chose your blue buttons separately and source the Photax Stellar and Solar 3 viewers to put this together nicelly :-)

Hello there,
We are still working in the backgroud at bringing fully assembled, fully painted Falcon targetting displays with my wife but are a bit too busy at the moment to see this through.
In the meantime, all metal parts are finished and I have a bunch of accurate viewers, so metal kits, as well as full kits with viewers are ready, but I prefer to put everything in stock when the finished replicas are ready.
since we are bringing fully finished props, we had to find a solution for the blue 1" buttons on top, so we had some buttons laser cut and engraved to try to reproduce the buttons we see a bit everywhere on the Death Star and Falcon. The blue is probably a bit light, but the choice of material was limited. Depending on which surface the buttons are resting, people are free to paint the backs a bit darker if they will
those are available on the website right now and are 4€ per button:
supergreenprops.com
and finaly, we also wanted some sort of lit up display of the targetting grid, so we had some plexy engraved with the grid and holes for leds:
Please take this as a "kit" and be aware that there are variations amongst viewers. I measured the leds positioning on a specific viewer and assembled on another viewer for the photos and the plastic tabs on each side of the glass are not exactly at the same position. So, with some viewers, the plate will work perfectly, with some other viewers, it will work better with only 3 leds as is. But everyone can adapt this part as they feel for the best result
those are available on the website right now and are 11€ per plate:
supergreenprops.com
we are hoping to bring the kits back as well as the fully painted replicas soon but I'm a bit busy right now with the saber run, the Ahsoka ball and all, I just need to edit a plan from the 3D model I did of the prop so my wife can assemble and paint those, but yeah, even this is too much at the moment!
cheers all

After a bit of discussing with Cantina_Dude, please consider those 1" lenses as "idealized" versions. The real buttons being simple squares of acrylic and the round shapes I had laser engraved holes in the sets for the lights.
Those are a good version for people that want to reproduce the feel of the sets with a bit of an idealized greebly, I will try to do "fully screen accurate" lenses as soon as possible.
cheers

Are you making 3d replicas of the viewers? If so, you might want to put holes in the model where the parts mount and maybe even a detent or raised circles where the dot stickers go, which would help them not look like stickers close up.
A short shaft/nub that the hollow cylinders could mount to would also be great for fitting those. They have very little area for glue!
The kit you have pictured looks excellent, nice work!

Hi,
no, I have made a 3D model of the whole thing that I matched on 4 images from the film to define exactly where the greeblies and stickers go. But it's just a basic model, not a printing model. I will only sell the kits I pictured above and fully painted replicas, this is just to have an accurate placement for the assembled and painted replicas that my wife will do with vintage viewers and my kits.
cheers
Hey guys,
the Falcon full kits and painted props are still work in progress, sorry, my wife and I are both VERY busy!
However, I now offer on my website prop-accurate 1" blue square button/lens on top of the idealized version I am already offering.
Those are now cut with a circular saw from acrylic color #2648 just like the real props The color can seem pretty light, but this was matched by someone from the community to a screen used TIE fighter chest box
Here is a comparison of the 3 types of buttons I now offer. prop-accurate white buttons will come as soon as I have the time to source the white plexy and cut it but at least we have the blue ones for the Falcon props!

Hi there,
I added another replica Michell part to the inventory yesterday, small batch for now, but will restock when I have more material.
this is the tone arm conical top part. It is used as greeblies on the Death Star, DLT-19 blaster, RA-7 droid, interogation droid, Xwing, probably on the Falcon too, blasters?... everywhere!
supergreenprops.com
I'll be adding the flat top version too when I have material in hand. Those are both used on the interogation droid and I am slowly building a full conversion kit for those for next year.
