The auction is live right now.

I'm guessing the pack will be auctioned off in the next 2 hours.

Not yet - they're still on lot # 670 (give or take). The pack is lot # 756. They have a live-stream on the Profiles in History website:

It's nothing exciting though - just the camera set on the auctioneer while he calls on bids.

WOW. Thats a one bedroom condo.

[Spengs]

That could have paid my house off.

[Ecto-3A]

Wow, $130k huh? Can't hide money, can't be jealous either. Congrats to the winning bidder, hopefully he/she feels like it was worth every penny.

[noslliT]

Ahhh crap. My bid was 129,999.99

Actually all the info was provided to PIH by Ross Arbuckle. There are some awesome new revelations that I have permission to share with you all after the auction has been completed.

Reveal away!

Sorry for the delay, fellas. Work has had me through the ringer lately. Here are the photos that Ross was able to get during his time with the Hero pack.

One thing you might notice is the size of the beam line/filler tubes. It's something that Ross and I had been arguing about for months and... He was right They ARE 1-1/8" OD. I guess I need to make some revisions now :/

In addition to that he was able to take a rub of the male side of the V-hook. From that Julz and I were able to come up with a new set of V-hook plans. I made the first draft and Julz has gone over it with a fine tooth comb to help correct for the beveled edges of the hook.

Enjoy and discuss!

This is great! The hat light by the vent is very interesting. Now I gotta change a few things. Thanks for pics.

So the "white dots" on the cyclotron rings are tapped holes instead of indents, that's pretty cool. Was there a clippard barb for a hose or something there that was ultimately scrapped before filming?

[Carpeteria]

Excellent shots! That must have been a lot of fun to take those and get hands all over that pack.

I wish there was a top-down shot of this area:



I'm curious how thick the welded part is between the ion arm/booster. It's skinnier than I thought it was, and it looks like there's a slight twist to it?

I think that are different dimension of the alluminium tubes. your photo tell that are little big (clearly 1"1/4).
so i think on the hero minnesota, semihero and super hero thery are 1"1/4) and on profile in history pack are just little than others. Probably they hd finished the tubes.

but next time it's better if you use one of this

[jros3484]

Awesome pics. Thanks!

[mike304]

Knurling on both rods on the ion arm end cap? Nice.

But damn, another detail to add.

Wait up, hold on, back it up... 1 1/8"?
So that means, I was right the whole time?? LOL

BTW, and STILL, no one opened the bottom plate on the gun..

[Skully]

Are the spacers absent. . . Whats the wood doing between the mobo and alice frame?. . also is the thin broken lense on the bargraph red. .

[Demon Vice Commander]

also is the thin broken lense on the bargraph red. .

I think that's the reflection of the red indicator light.

[FunkPunkTwang]

This is amazing thank you for sharing Vince

[lannyjack]

Yes, thank you for sharing!

What is that screw doing in the gun ear? I wonder what secrets it holds . . .

[mike304]

The Spengler pack also still has its gb1 legris banjos. Nice.

The popular theory is that it may have something to do with attaching the grip. Nice to see some further material showing that the grips are wooden.

Ah ,thanks Commander I see it now. . Obviously without looking on the inside we can only speculate the electronics but curious if it has at least the real neon bargraph like the super hero ,or the static hockey puck set up like the semi heros . . The film exposed behind the broken lens looks frosted as to defuse light . .

[Vincenzo330]

Yes, the screw in the ear holds the grip on. There is another in the barrel lock which does the same on the other side.

Also, the grips are not wood, the "clear" casting resin that was widely used in the 80's looked almost like amber after curing. Like the gun handle in Blade Runner

[Kingpin]

To put another thought into words (or a corrupted film quote):

"Hey! Do these lights still work?"

Are there rivets on the grips like on the Sony lobby pack, or is it just held on by the screws in the lock and ear? Its hard to tell from the angles on the pics.
