Making 5 of these helmets— PLA 3D printed using YoshStudios files (printed and sold with permission as a member of their Patreon.) The base size is fit for a 24 inch head, but I can resize it. Asking for $100 for a finished helmet or $50 for a raw print (extra $10 for a stand) plus calculated...

Oops— maybe I posted this in the wrong place? I think I used another screen used reference thread as reference on where this should go, but that one might have been in the wrong spot too as this is indeed not a "replica prop" lol. Should I clean this thread out and move it over there?

I think this might be legitimate? If it is, it reveals a few big things. Just base observations on if it's real... It looks old— and to my knowledge, the conical section of the centrifuge holder (between the disks) is a rather new edition to replicas, with some folks doubting it at first, same...

I'm relatively certain where we see that "threaded hole" on the inside is either a failed attempt to make it screw (which is why the top of the central tube has threading at the top) or just from them gutting the inside of the can, since even with this prop it looks too short to reach the top of...

The labels are perfect— a problem with a lot of other replicas have been the labels getting caught on the edge of the centrifuge holes either because the holes are too tight or because the label material is too thick— this is perfect on both.

I was about to lose faith in UPS, but it just arrived! Number 29 of 3500. And that's a vintage can of "skin conditioner" Barbasol next to the replica can. And here's a closer look at the lemon scented dish soap: Beautiful piece. The holes are a perfect fit for the centrifuge. There's a couple...

My recommendation for filling vials will always be lemon dish soap. Yellow, lasts a good while, good consistency, no risk of staining anything (vials or clothes/surfaces while pouring) and it smells nice! I have photos from past cryos somewhere, but I'll just wait until mine gets here today (if...

It's been a while, but that's partly because after Paragon announced their run of cryocans, I sort of decided to call it a day. The whole point was to make a cryocan as close as possible to the prop as I could get it since no replica on the market really met my expectations— and Paragon filled...

Mines on it's way, should be here Friday. Really excited.

A quick reminder its been revealed (I believe earlier in this very thread?) that the one from Disneyland was sculpted and built for Disneyland. Yes, there were likely different props for hero/stunt, but the one at Disney should not be used as reference for either.

Thank you! I did already find these photos, I'm just hoping someone at some point will take some closer photos of that hilt.

Yeah, I love some of the show's attention to detail when it comes to the "ancient" props— like I love that I could clearly see Riptide was inspired by a bronze age sword— I just wish whoever designed the prop took the extra step to look up GREEK Bronze age swords rather than Swedish ones! Or...

I thought you were making a joke ("Holly wood" like Hollywood, as in movies...) before I remembered that in the book, Harry's wand is made from holly. Look up holly, it's a very white wood and doesn't match the colors used in the movie, unless it was stained! It's certainly possible with the...

Hello all, Trying to make the sword from the Percy Jackson TV show: I've got a folder with tons of reference shots from the show, but it looks like they have a display of the props at Hollywood Studios in Disney World. I unfortunately live closer to the wrong park, and wanted to put out the...

Sorry for the delay folks, but after a lack of production, re-prints, re-paints, etc it's all caught up! (and then some!) Waiting for the topcoat to dry and then shipping these out!
