Begins Cellphone
Hey bros,
Is there a good resource for this aside from the kid's belt?
If none, any tech specs and dimensions available on the net?
Thanks!

Re: Begins cellphone
Hey pare,
I'll scan in a pic from the Begins visual guide of the screen used prop in a few minutes.

Re: Begins cellphone
Okay, there seems to be a 6 page thread of this in the archive section but wasnt resolved.
Is the toy accurate enough? Any spares to help a brother out?

Re: Begins cellphone
What are your plans, Mardon? I have one that I'm not really using. I'd be willing to loan it to you at the very least.

Re: Begins cellphone
The only thing I know is that the actual prop is smaller than the kids toy, I saw it up close in San Diego at the convention.

Re: Begins cellphone
Thanks pareng Jason - appreciate the scan :)
Okay, cellphones here in Manila are like sand in the Sahara - just too many.
A lot of folks customized their cells & you see a lot of vendors that could modify boards, change the color of the backlights.....to whatever you want to do to your cellphone short of dissecting it :lol
So, I was planning to purchase one of those "kids belt" cellphone, study it....open it up & see what the cellphone vendors here can do.
While I'm not dreaming of having it as a full function phone (althou, that would be cool!), I'm just envisioning a screen that would light up at a press of a button - a customized logo perhaps..or even a message saying "calling Alfred"......or whatever message I desire.
Therefore, I need to install a board , backlights and ofcourse a battery. I'm sure there are smaller phones that could even fit inside of the toy phone - but integrating it would be the problem.
IF, for some reason I need to re-do the casing of the phone just so I could integrate the common (cheapest) cellphone parts - then I will redesign the casing in fiberglass.
So, before anything else - I would definitely need one of those "kids belt" Begins cellphone.
Could anyone sell me one? :)

Re: Begins cellphone
I still say it looks linke an MP3 player. I searched for cell phones with one number dialing, but found nothing remotely looking like it. Some of these new "phones" for kids that only call numbers programed by their parents might offer something. Unless there is a fold down cover, but I think the thing was scratchbuilt for the movie.
