Anyone got the 411 on the lights in the pic for the belt gizmo? Would like to recreate those…if possible…or where to find them (without having to buy a whole kit or build piece). I really want to build my own…
They’re not so much “lights” as they are nixie tubes, which as you can see are 7-segment numerals encased in glass which illuminated. The tubes on the screen-used belt gizmos in the first film were part of a circuit board from a Sanyo ICC-808D calculator.
The gizmos themselves weren’t illuminated in any way in the movies, that’s something fans have decided to do within the last decade or so.

Did not even realize that lol. Thanks for the info.
To clarify, they illuminated in their use as calculator numerals.
