Waiting for a Laszlo Shroud & a few parts from Blas=tech to modify the control box (without hurting the original parts) and agonizing over whether to remove the microflash badge.

Hi all!

I only wish I had a MPP, but to answer DrS' Q about the chick, it's an early shot of Millia Jovovich... you know Leelu from The 5th Element, Chaplin, Return to The Blue Lagoon, and in the upcoming Resident Evil film:)

Just thought I could help:)

Is this so we can laugh at the people who paid a bunch of money for MPPs once they reveal themselves? :lol: ;)

Got mine off ebay for about $500 after selling the camera it came with. Plus I then sold my old converted Heiland since I didn't need it. Don't feel bad at all about buying it OR removing the shield. It's still identifiable without it...in a few ways.

I paid $400 plus $150 in trade stuff for mine. I really like it and don't plan to remove the plate...

Happy Propping,

I love your scratch build. I can't wait to see it finished. Will you be using one of Lazlos Emitters when they are ready?

Hey, BTW Gavi, didja ever post up those pics of your MPPchronar for me?

Dann I'll email you this weekend. I did post the pics and the thread floated around for about 4 days and you didn't respond so I stopped bumping it.

Gary, I am going to use the Laszlo shroud on this one and the STJ shroud on the other one.

Back to the whole MPP thing.

Add in Blast-tech and the guy that sent his to Larbel. Or did he already post?

Who was that kid who digitally doctored the heiland and tried to pass it as an MPP on the board?

I believe it was Gav and Cliff who discovered the flaws. The kid finally admitted it was a Heiland. hehehe

Like a proud parent, I'm always ready to whip out pics of my "baby" if someone asks!

So what are we up to now, 8? I know there's more than that. I remember when there was only 4 of us. Sheesh, they're lettin' anybody into the club these days! ;)

Shall we post serial numbers to see who's the lowest? :) Mine has a silver firing button... does anyone else have that?
