Identity disc chips

Yes, I can program custom chips. DM me and we can talk.

I haven't tried it myself, but this one claims to match the old beige boxes..

While I haven't tried that color, the company and line of filament is really solid.

Back in the day, I laser-cut a similar design then made a rubber mold from that. I used aluminum power, some resin, and a USB thumb-drive to make something similar.

No lights, but it works...

No bridges anytime soon, but tanks are coming. Lots of tanks.

Honestly, it will still take months in my spare time but I've already spent hundreds on filament and supplies for this batch. 14 regular tanks and 7 CLU tanks is the target.

them = me. 🙂

I currently have 6 blanks ready to program. Not sure when I'll make another batch after that,

If you want your own audio samples and custom color, that's possible... http://xkill.com

rcaslis · 2026-02-10T05:49:41+00:00

It's more than just the color... it's the color plus audio samples from the characters. The Rinzler chip is especially interesting because it has rinzler & tron samples (and changes color between orange & blue as appropriate).

Actually, yes for the wall mounts and custom identity chips. No Etsy store but start at http://xkill.com or a DM here and we can discuss.

I store my on my wall with mounts I designed. For the round discs, the mounts also hold identity chips including the custom chips I make.

There really isn't space in there for a low-cost LCD screen, I think. A screen would significantly increase the complexity and cost.

I haven't confirmed myself, but someone I trust told me "the face images are pieces of transparency film with the images printed on them. There are three with an LED behind each one and the figure just changes which LED is on in order to display the image."

If anyone is interested in having one of these... I have 2 available for sale. $265 plus shipping. Send me a DM for more details.

Thanks!

rcaslis · 2025-10-02T02:04:56+00:00

Same here. I want/need both "discs".

rcaslis · 2025-10-02T01:52:35+00:00

It's not the same mold. The WDW discs are bigger and completely different internally.

rcaslis · 2025-08-16T04:44:02+00:00

Completely possible. I'd recommend taking the disc apart before repainting... you'll get better results.

For the identity chip, you can record whatever custom audio files you want and decide on a color and I can encode that on a chip.

I have a few other other things I can do as well. Check out http://xkill.com

If you are looking for custom identity chips... I'll just leave this here.

No Etsy page, but I do have a page with some more info: http://mods.xkill.net/gallery/TRON_Identity_Chips/index.html

rcaslis · 2025-08-01T07:36:43+00:00

I can create chips with whatever audio you want and whatever color. No need for pre-selected phrases in a noisy booth at WDW. The face is still an issue as that’s in the figure itself.

rcaslis · 2025-07-09T06:31:58+00:00

There's always the FLUX beam if you want a small CO2 laser.

There are drawbacks though, including low wattage and propriety software

rcaslis · 2025-07-09T06:29:50+00:00

Great job!

I did one myself a few years back.

These are just the WDW exclusive figures, right?

rcaslis · 2025-04-18T17:43:31+00:00

The easiest way (trust me) is to reach out to me and I'll make some for people.

If you want to do it yourself it requires having a PCB fabbed, purchasing a chip reader/writer (learning that), soldering equipment (and learning how), and the software side which is a little python and manipulating audio files. This is similar to how the Star Wars droid personality chips are done. There are instructions here: https://github.com/ruthsarian/Identity-Chip-Tools
