    I am not sure. I bet that Optical24/7 has probably made them. He makes a bunch of neat-o Torped-o things on his ostrich skin wrapped edger!

    In the original movie, they were Gargoyles. Not sure if they're still around now though.

    You're right Fezz. I designed the original "Rhinestone Star" glasses for Ah-nold. He loved them! He said, " Owl be whack....in theezz"! He never wore them in the movie though....Johns came along and bought them from him for $1.29 and a protein shake!

    They were the Ray Ban "Predator 2", matte bottoms and polished tops. Made by Ray-ban especially for the movie I believe. A modified Rayban Balorama really, with a thinner bottom edge.

    They were Ray Bans. Easily available at almost all eye clinics.

    In the T2 movie, I do believe it was actually the Persol mentioned above, and not the Rayban Predator style. I believe the timeline of the movies production also precluded the use of the RB frame. Could be mistaken, but this appears to be the case as far as I can find.

    For what it's worth...

    The Predator 2 was worn prominently in the first MiB movie however by Mr Smith and Mr Jones - as they're billed on the posters. :)
