Using the kenner 1979 falcon.
� There are 10 philips screws on the bottom of the
falcon.
� You will need to gut everything inside with dremal
except the legs and a few screw risers save the 2
risers you do cut off they are good parts.
� Do not cut off the risers on each side of the front
legs they hold 2 screws. 2 by the cockpit,2 by the
very front and 2 by the back legs. Do not cut them
you will use 8 of the original screw risers.
� Make sure everything is grinded smooth.

Instead of using an awesome Kenner Falcon, can a cheap Hasbro one work just as well?

 I believe that any console that could fit would do. And it is not exactly free... if you keep in mind that some people don't have a Falcon, or a console, for that matter...

What if someone doesn't want to use composite video?  Would be a shame to use XBMC exclusively through 480i (and composite at that).

You could use a Triple A/V RCA Component In-Line Audio Video Coupler RED, GREEN, BLUE RCA Adapter Female to Female Barrel Jack Splice instead of composite.

actually the falcons produced by i believe hasbro are all the same since 1979 to up till about 2000. then they make a brand new mold. so in respect for vintage toys you can use any year model of falcon. ive actually seen this done to a pc before but pretty cool idea.

wooaw.I don't have x box but It's really amazing idea.

LMAO!  Like many posters, I'm torn between the destruction of a vintage toy (that I envied my brother for having) and the awesomeness of the end result.

Good I like it.

Blasphemy on using a vintage toy. 

I am so confused...

I have to agree there. It's super awesome, but my heart broke a little when I read, "1979 falcon".

VERY cool mod, but more photos of details needed--like the cd/dvd tray cuts.....
JeyNyce says: Dec 17, 2009. 6:26 AM
Awesome!  I have a model Falcon, I wonder if I can use that?
Rue_Ryuzaki says: Dec 15, 2009. 12:32 PM
that thing still works?!

AWESOME! Love the fans!!

Very awesome casemod for the X-box.  I daresay some collectors are going to freak out at the modification of apparently mint `79 Falcons.  If they give you too much trouble just point at me and say "Atleast I didn't use mine as a planter!".  I'll be happy to take the hit to get them off your back.

 THAT IS SO AWESOME!
