I was wondering if anyone makes/sells a solid P60 unit like the malkoff or overreday module for creating my own 3x xpg RC-LUX p60 light?
Solid copper or brass P60 slug available?

Avoid brass - its thermal conductivity is worse than aluminium. Its only advantage is that it can be cheaply machined and can be soldered.

But really though... I would love to find a source of good, solid, thermally conductive P60 pills/slugs.

Conductivity isn't everything. Mass is important to, something brass has in spades.

I'm looking for the same thing to build a single led light. I would get a malkoff, but i only use one battery and its a LifePo4. Plus, I want an optic not a reflector.

I don't know if the offer is still up, but Copper P60 pills for sale - now collecting interest for copper P60 drop-ins, too.
I think it'd be great if a machine shop were enlisted to make them; I thought those pills would be very popular.

The offer is still out there, but, no one has really committed to it. Not enough, at least, for me to move forward and contact the machine shop to even discuss the possibility of farming it out to them. Moving forward, I'll be making these by hand and they will not be inexpensive as a result.
