Posts: 90 | Geometric Answeres, prototype set completely finished...SHIPPING OUT SOON
on Sunday, September, 19, 2010 1:20 AM
Me and a friend on the unforum fiction have grown weary of trying to acquire these bits that the flynn lives campaign has sent out. There were so few made that I have personally heard of them going for around $200-$300 for just one.
We have re-created thegeometric answers - each different than the zero hour ones in that these are 5" squared, roughly the size of a softball - pretty big.
We are only having 30 sets made, after that if we don't get sued which I hope we don't, we will try to do another set.
I have my Masters in 3D modeling/Animation, the whole reason I just spent an unnatural and undisclosed amount on my masters was because of tron.
I designed these in a 3d program and they have been laser printed by a 3d printer to be painstakingly accurate - dimension wise and symmetry wise.
here are the pictures of the prototype set. There are only 15 slots left and we are hoping these go quick.
The "yes" will be molded in yellow plastic
The "no" will be molded in red plastic
The "neutral" will be molded in blue plastic
We are both students (the guy who is helping me with this), this is a student project and we are not making any real money on this we are covering our costs for having these made.
The zero hour bits are fairly small and have created a ridiculous amount of hype and it is not fair that they were not available to those of us who have spent our lives loving this amazing movie.
Disney has gotten so so much of my money and I hope they don't sue because I have $1 in my bank account and have probably spent over $20,000 on their merchandise, movies, games, you name it. And once again Tron is the only reason I spent a house on my masters so that I can be a 3d modeler/animator so we hope you guys enjoy these.
Each set will be $100 + shipping to whatever country you are in. They will be made of plastic so they should survive the shipping process and to save money to overseas countries, we will be using United States Postal Service.
We personally got tired of everyone (including ourselves) trying to find these bits, trying to trade for the bits, begging for people to part with their bits and we wanted people to be able to enjoy these.
If you are interested, please just say a simple yes. We may be taking a $35 deposit which you will only pay the difference + shipping when they are done.
Once again we only have 15 slots left out of the 30 and if all goes well and we don't get sued we will try to have another run shot out.
There is an amazing amount of magic you feel when you hold these in your hand so we know you guys are going to be getting all the bang for your buck.
Just put your name down if you want a set.

And to answer any questions, $100 gets you the set of three, not just one.
As for shipping we are going to try to do USPS flat rate unless you wish to pay for UPS or FedEx. Just specify and we will get you a direct quote before shipping and requesting payment.

Wow, that's pretty awesome--
Though, to think of it, I was having an idea of doing papercraft Bit in all of the states for Christmas ornaments to go with the Tron lightcycle one which would be awesome.

Wow.
When we did these we thought we could sell them but the slots are filling up fast.
Only 13 slots left.
We put a crazy amount of love into these so we hope all those that buy them love them as much as we do.

Those are pretty neat Shaved_Ape. I think after you guys sell the first set of bits, maybe you guys can expand by creating other figures.
I'm cold and calculating. Don't press my buttons.

Those are amazing, and I would love to get one of the sets, but, I don't have the money. But if you are able to make more, what if you made a mini verstion of the bits, such as a half an inch size (Though that may not be feasable but would be cool). where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

I spoke to the person I am working with and we are getting quotes this week for molds and plastics.
I will let you know as soon as we start taking deposits.
One thing we talked about which we will be doing, is taking all the names from those that leave deposits and I will be putting your name in a hat. From there I will draw a name and the winner will receive his or her set for FREE!!!
The deposit will be used for shipping and you will be refunded the difference.
We still have 12 spots left and if you can't afford a full set right now, leave your deposit and we will hold them for you until you pay the rest off, but not for too long.

So there are 8 sets left and around 3 weeks or so before these are finished.
What is happening is we are making a mold of the master set, then we are shooting one set out.
From that set we are sanding it, making sure all the points on the no "Geometric Answer" are consistent, then we are taking a mold of that set and shooting these bad boys out.
Once again we have already started the process of taking deposits, if you want a set now is the time to act.
We are going to make a few extra sets just in case anything happens to your set in the mailing process that way you will be guaranteed a full set.
We know a lot of people may not be able to afford the $100 so hopefully we will have some extras afterwards to break up a couple of sets and sell them individually but I can't guarantee that.
Anyway now that the email system is working again shoot me a line if you wish to have a set.
Deposits are $50, or you can pay in full if you wish and all you have to pay when they are finished is shipping.
We WILL ship to any country that you could be in, we will just go to the United States Postal Service and give you an exact quote. Shipping through the USPS is fairly cheap compared to FedEX or UPS. I recently shipped some collectibles to Australia in a box that will be the same size that these will fit in and it only came to about $27. But these will definitely weigh less than those items did so anywhere around that area.
Once again, we will without question ship these to any location you live in, so long as USPS will send it there. If not then we will go wherever you trust most.
The guy that is having these shot out in plastic lives in Southern California and you MAY pick them up if you wish, he has also volunteered to deliver them so long as it is within a reasonable distance.
Thanks for supporting us and act fast. We are actually taking a hit financially now that we are trying to have the best molds made possible, but we are still trying to get some money out of these to do a possible second run.
This has been a really fun project so we hope it will be fun for you as well.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

to all those interested in a set of these, I know they are expensive. We don't need $100 now. If you are interested let us know and you can pay in increments. These will also come with certificates. It also sounds like some people are interested in modifying them so they hang. If this is of interest to youl please let me know so I can inquire.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

It sounds like some of you may want to hang these. In which case I can see if we can do minor mods on an as needed basis. If you are interested in this, let me know.

Yeah for all of those who don't know Steve, he is from Unforum and a really cool guy. He is the one helping me with this and we have 7 sets left to sell and $100 seems expensive, but when you think that each bit is $33 that is actually a pretty good deal.
The Zero hour bits are cool in their own perspective but are about 2" big. These are 5" and go for about 100% less than the zero hour bits.
I have heard of one going for as high as $300 and a few who have said they have gone for $175. Regardless that is just one, and its only about the size of a golf ball.
These here are an entire handful and are almost done being molded out in plastic.
The ones for zero hour were lasered out by an older machine that does layers by layers which you can see the notches of levels that it creates.
These we have done were done by an abnormally accurate Zcorp machine that are painstakingly accurate and smooth.
So $100 for one full set that are bigger and better is actually a pretty good deal.
Once again there are 30 sets, in actuality there are about 35 that will be done but those 5 extra sets are to ensure that if any get damaged in the shipping process that they will be replaced.
We will be breaking up 2 or 3 sets in the end but will sell individual ones for $50 a piece, so for 3 at $100 you are getting a much better deal.
So let us know because these are almost near being finished and we have decided for now that this may possibly be the only set that is made.
