everybody no one from the tested here and for today's show-and-tell got a
quick little fun project earlier this year I put together this beautiful
pip-boy kit it comes from the fine folks at the one company and when I favorite
parts about this is that it was well a kick something that you could assemble
even though they do sell a preassembled one a lot of fun putting this together
or friends in the prop community also made one builder and made one and
whether his up and while the one company has now also started putting out some
accessories still in universe for the pip-boy
and the first one that's out is what makes a lot of sense a display stand it
is manufactured by robco or vault-tec and one of the things I love about the
what the one company does is they build everything kind of in universe so this
is the kind of display stand replica that you would find in a vault and not
only does it work as a stand for the pip-boy but also is a Bluetooth speaker
and also has a microphone so you can make phone calls on it let's open this
up and take a look at what looks like inside and oh yes already you got some
cool world building love just the way they're packaging things like the manual
for buildings beautiful beautiful design manual like they're one of their
co-founders is a designer by trade and loves putting together all these
wonderful graphics it comes in a couple boxes these are all numbered so for
example box one two three four as well as I believe
all the tools come with the kit and so this is a USBC so it's powered over a
USB C cable I do have some extra tools just in case I want to use my own but
let's break open these boxes null everything out and get to assembling and
take a look at how it looks and sounds
well there you have it a super simple build took about 35 minutes or so to put
it all together really helps to know all the parts out especially all the
hardware and it is a perfect little display for the pip-boy replica kit as
well didn't even need to use my tools here the tiny screwdriver that comes
with it as well as that allen wrench worked perfectly to make sure I tighten
everything the manual was super clear again love the design of all this stuff
I did think that they could have done a sleigh better job with the component
guides the screws in always perfectly match up so again really helpful of you
know about all the pieces you know exactly which screws go where read all
through all the instructions first before start assembling and it has very
nice Bluetooth functionality very easy to pair with your phone or any other
device it also has little microphone so it works as a speakerphone speaker isn't
very loud but one of the nice features that even if you're not using it to play
music you could also use the jog dial in the back to tap into some pre-programmed
sound bites from the wasteland you have been tasked with nothing less than the
rebuilding of America yeah really fun satisfying kit I think their song it for
$80 available now at the Bethesda store and I think also be
the GameStop website as well if you have the pip-boy replica already I think this
one is a no-brainer and of course there'll be some other upgrades as well
to add FM radio as well as a flickering light behind the display here but that's
a quick show-and-tell I really enjoyed putting this together I
hope you enjoyed it as well and we'll see you next time
just know that vaulteq is proud of you I am proud of you
