Title: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: Big Boss on December 21, 2012, 12:41:02 AM Now I couldn't let you jedis have all the fun now could I? Just got it in the mail after work and had to open it. 8) I plan on installing a red led and perhaps sound.
Its a 2-cell (http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc445/phophjoph15/100_1491_zps487e8270.jpg) Title: Re: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: Manroon on December 21, 2012, 12:48:30 AM This is just getting creepy now. I think I started a Fad...... Or rather, I started it, and Temple made it popular. lol This is great! Now there's a real through and through Darkside one coming out instead of all the blue and green shades we've had! XD I have to wonder though.... all three of you seem to have gotten the same 2 Cell variation with knobby looking silver piece where my red button was. Did I hack up a rare variation for mine? *shrug* Either way, welcome to the 2-Cell Conversion Family, Boss! Can't wait to see the Mando Version of one of these!

At first I didn't really care that much for the design of the heilands since I have always seen ani/vader/luke designs from vintage heiland builds in the past. Though that changed after I saw you guys getting these little 2 cells and making them into unique pieces. I thought it would be a great shoto/off hand saber next to my opppressor and both would be ideal for my imperial agent character/costume I've been trying to come up with. 8) Title: Re: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: Manroon on December 21, 2012, 01:54:55 AM That could work out nicely! Can't wait to see how it turns out. You know, I'm starting to think somebody should photoshop something together of all these 2 Cells we've got on the forum now. Something for our sigs maybe.

Glad you're doing one! I can't wait to see what you do with it. Title: Re: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: Zren Tobas on December 21, 2012, 02:10:32 AM Where you guys getting all da Heilands at?? I want to do one but Ani AOTC style. xp Tell nao. xp
Title: Re: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: Manroon on December 21, 2012, 02:14:38 AM LOL That was pretty much my reaction too, Ben.
Zren, I believe everyone else has been getting theirs on ebay. I dug mine up at work, but it was sort of through a fluke. I was picking up a load of merchandise from a Movie Prop House in Burbank, and they had a LOAD of old cameras, flashes, etc and the owner was kind enough to give me mine. I hope to snag another one through ebay or other means sometime in the distant future. I'd really like to do one in FO to pair with Ann. Title: Re: Big Boss's Heiland build Post by: JEStucker on December 22, 2012, 03:25:09 AM Yep, several Heiland's and Graflex's on Ebay... I went looking the other day, just in case I really wanted to go that route. As comfortable as I am with my electronics skill, I don't think I'm ready for a full scratch build yet.
