TrooperPX: The Worlds Most Complete
Starship Troopers Reference Collection.

Mobile Infantry
Grenades

Everything shown here are actual film-used props from the 1997 film STARSHIP TROOPERS.
The contents of TrooperPX is part of a single private collection. None of these items are for sale.

This is the Mobile Infantry accessory pouch that holds two Grenades. The grenades that were held by the principal actors were solid resin. These "Hero-grade" grenades were for use close to the camera when the grenade pouch needed to look heavy. They had potentially working spoons and a press-down plastic primmer cap. Since they were never really used in the film, few were made and almost all without a spoon. "A-grade" grenades have a finished rubber skin over foam. They are smooth and have the spoon molded in. "B-grade" grenades, or stunt-grenades, were painted green foam. Worn on the right side, in front of the Thigh Knife Sheath on the MI armor.

This pouch was made by Eagle Industries solely for Starship Troopers. They are not available through the company.
