Anyone able to tell what kind of LEDs I would need for this kit? -

@Ronnie21093 A basic bitch LED set up shouldn't be too complicated so buying any LED kit from Aliexpress should be fine -

So I managed to figure out what I'd need for the LEDs. Problem is that the LED Units aren't in production anymore, and apparently Bandai LEDs are a mess anyways.
So I might have to find some decent bootlegs with the same shape as the real units. -

@poopernova My only concern is making sure the LED unit fits. -

@Ronnie21093 It's a model kit don't be afraid to drill or file some shit -

Apparently these work well. Someone in a model kit Discord I'm in has used these to make his own LED units for his Bandai kits
Sadly they are sold out :tamamo_die: -

@Ronnie21093 Looks like there's plenty of CR1220 Battery holders on Amazon if you want to use that, they're all going specced to hold CR1220 batteries so the dimensions aren't going to be too different -

@poopernova It's not the LED light itself I'm worried about, but the big part of the unit with the batteries and on/off switch.
If it was just an internal piece meant to hold the unit it'd be fine, but I think it is an external piece that you can see.
