ANH Luke Tatooine Farm Boy Collection

[TatooineMachine]

Version 2 Macros I built

A little nicer build than my original - I used a Portumac Props transition box, added a more correct "not a mystery" plug with Seneca's laser cut piece, changed up my Seagull large knob, used 4 Kalimar knobs, and added a black frame around my new Bantha & Tusken transparency.

What about the poncho? Is it the same one seen in Mos Eisley when he sells his speeder?

yes, the Sideshow Farmboy Luke comes with the poncho, just haven’t put it on, it hides all Luke’s goods!

Finally got around to weathering the backed out lens frames

A few details on the Macros too and had to add C3-P0 and R2 to the mix

 

[TatooineMachine]

Awesome, Chad. No ANH display is complete without one!

 

[TatooineMachine]

I guess I should buckle and strip the anodizing from the top portion....

 

[russellsch]

Your display set up is such awesome eye candy, Chad. Love it!

That top portion should slide off the rest of the lens and paint comes off fairly easily with a 400+ grit sandpaper without leaving any marks. I followed up with #0000 steel wool just to be sure.

Thanks bro, I’ll get around to it!

Look who’s talking, thanks Russ!

Weathered the Arriflex lens per Russ's method. Worked great, thanks buddy!

Modded my Macros so the EAIJ plug was a little closer. No way I'm spending $300 - $500 for one of these! I think this looks better

Also made the view hood able to close and clear the EL Bantha sheet

I'd like to wire up the Eumig On/Off switch to work for the EL sheet and add an Extracta board to the battery door!

 

[TatooineMachine]

I decided to add an Exacra circuit board to my Macros

I also used a thumb button from an Arriflex camera lens for the droid restraining bolt as my green tab, no way am I paying $350+ for this little part! It's close enough for me.

I'm calling these done!

Yep. I would agree. Look great.

 

[TatooineMachine]

Yep. I would agree. Look great.

Thanks!

 

[thegnome]

Looks really good!

 

[russellsch]

Man, oh man, I love your builds!!!

Finally finished the bolt on the Arriflex Restraining Bolt

 

[russellsch]

A-mazing!!!
