Thanks so much again for sharing this one dude. Know you’ve been looking for these forever like the rest of us found parts nuts!

Wow, finally we have a name for that piece! Congratulations for discovering another found part!

Here is my 3D version of the center greeble:

The updated model was added to my 3D models thread here ==>RafalFett's Boba Fett 3D Projects.

Great stuff, Chris! I was super excited about this discovery too and right away last Friday took a stab at modelling up a non-idealized version myself. I tried to incorporate the little mold misalignment details you can see on the original found part in an effort to really replicate the overall look as accurately as possible. Fun times!

You can probably get a better sense of it looking at it in 3D on Shapeways!

[SPY007]

I don't see dimensions of this piece listed anywhere. Any body have them?

Just the basic box outline?

 

[SPY007]

Yes, but I found them. Thanks.

Here is the Dims. Luckily the catalog was a vector PDF so you can import the drawings directly into AutoCAD.

RafelFett, thanks for sharing your 3-D model. I found a local 3-D printer and had two made up. With some light sanding and a fine dremel tool, I was able to remove most of the scan lines and have updated my Fett blaster.
