rapidtransit's proton gun

This is my first ever proton gun and first movie prop ever.I started collecting parts about a year ago and started assembly in Jan.I’m using a combination of Norm’s,Stefan’s and Sean’s plans with parts from the GBFans shop,MMM,Exoray,and random sources on E-bay.It’s not 100% finished nor 100% screen accurate but I think it’s coming along pretty good.What do you guys think?

I think it looks great!

I can see that it’s not finished.. You still need to work on the proton pack, as you’ve missed that little detail..

Well, seriously, that looks great, even if it is your first build…

Wow, an excellent first build! What lighting kit have you got in there?

first proton gun!? first movie prop ever??? the workmanship makes it look as if you’ve been building props for years! fantastic job :slight_smile:

you going to weather it or keep her clean and new looking?

Beautiful work.

You should be very proud.

that wand looks awesome. good job man :cool:

I kinda like the clean and new look.I figure authentic weathering will happen eventually with handling,use and sitting around on display in my house.

Wobbaz…I’m using Exoray’s excellent light kit.

i agree thats a great looking thrower. did you build the body yourself, or was it from a kit? either way it looks great.

Scored the gun body off E-bay.It was just a smooth sided box,no holes,no stubs for either gun tube,nothing extra.

much of that looks like irris casts…looks good.

Wow,amazing gun man.

Good Job! Impressive work for your first project. It does look like you have been making props for a long time. The wand looks great.
