There is actually a commando print for sale on ebay

Hi Alan, If you haven't learned of this yet, a great way to watch features are on large 1200' or 800' reels, so you don't need to make as many reel changes, but it can be one's preference to keep them on the original 400' or 600'.

Hi Bruno, thanks, I'll check on eBay right away

Hi Daniel , thanks for the suggestion, but I thought my projector was limited to 600, why is there a way to fit a larger reel ?

Cheers,
Alan

I'm sorry, yours does have a 600' capacity. You would need a different model. The Elmo ST-1200 and GS-1200 are common.

Hi No probs , by the way Bruno mentioned above eBay, can you see the Commando for sale anywhere on eBay ?

I can't find it. Let me know the link if you see it.

The only reference to 8mm I can find is a video 8mm release

Aliens: http://m.ebay.com/itm/322138563348?_mwBanner=1

It has ended but at least you got the idea about the price. Seller wants $499

Posted by Alan Salerno (Member # 5437) on June 16, 2016, 02:18 AM:

Hi Winbert, for faded Reel and out of sync, I would not pay that, but if it was in good condition maybe.
