Re: My Prop Replica Collection - NEW ARRIVALS- Jur. Park, Ind. Jones, B Runner, Goon
A few goodies arrived yesterday
From Jurassic Park, a Laminated Parking Pass
Indiana Jones - Marion Ravenwood’s shot glass from her drinking contest at the Raven Saloon in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
A Tsing-Tao shot glass as Deckard used in Blade Runner.
From The Goonies :
A Doubloon. I got this, and it was painted totally gold. So I gave it a rough paint job in the hope to make it look a few hundred years old.
And Chester Copperpot’s wallet. I also made the Baseball and Library Card as inserts. (I just couldn't bring myself to weather it though. Might do in the future :lol)
And this next photo of where I put the Doubloon and wallet, is dedicated to Alric
Alan I think you are slipping as I'm sure I spotted a blank bit of wall
See, no blank bit there now :lol

Lastly, but
very most importantly, this post has a very special dedication - to Adam C.
In an OT thread recently, I was moaning about a company in the US who absolutely refused to ship something to me, although they shipped to all of Europe and various weirdo places. Malta was simply not included in their outdated check-out software. It was the Goonies Wallet.
Anyway, what I didn’t say in that thread, and to cut a long story short, a couple of weeks ago, Adam C. was kind enough to buy the Wallet, and re-ship it to me.
Like I wasn’t ecstatic enough as it was, I was totally stumped when he also sent me the Glasses, the Parking Pass, and a Sarah Connor Terminator Photo !
These items now not only form part of my collection, but they also occupy a very special place in my heart
Genuine friends and kindness one meets and makes on forums are to be cherished like Platinum, and I count myself lucky to have made a few over the years.
Adam C, THANKS !!
