Has anyone tried to make these or have the originals?
1) Laser Gun
2) Vultan's Club
3) Vultan's Remote Control (for the hovering platform)
4) Golden Sword
5) Ming's ring (to make women dance all sexy like.)

I've got an original Laser rifle...

It's one of the gold plated ones carried by Ming's guards. (excuse the crappy pics and the case... I ordered one with a black background and hooks to hold the gun, but got this instead... still waiting on a replacement)

I would love to have all the ones you listed...

Anyone have any good pics of the big gun that Prince Baron takes off the tripod mount and uses? I always thought that was a cool gun.
 
Well, hell...Now, the song's gonna be in my head all day. Thanks.

Flash...ah' aaaaaaaa.
 
Flash - a-ah - he's a miracle
Flash - a-ah - king of the impossible

Great song. I miss Queen.

Just a heads up the last time I was looking at the Propstore of London they had a screen used club that was the same as Vultan's club but painted gold.

Hey there,

If anyone gets the Profiles in History Hollywood Auction catalog, #24 has a good pic of Barin's laser cannon/rifle - I can scan & post pics when I get home. This same issue also has a hawkman sword, the executioner's drum, and Aura's epaulettes.

Just realized, PIH has a website, here'e a link to a .pdf of the relevant pages in the catalog -

http://204.200.196.80/pdf/A24_51-100.pdf

Pages 63-65 for the Flash Gordon stuff.

If anyone wants bigger scans, let me know.

Thanks,

Brian
 
When I was a kid my dad did a plumbing job at the studio where they were filming Flash Gordon (Pinewood, I think). He came home with one of those huge cannons that the Hawkmen use, and a big fat book of original storyboards.

Imagine my surprise when my mum threw both in the rubbish the moment I left home. Along with all my die-cast Gerry Anderson Toys, toy Daleks, action figures, the lot.

Gotta love family :angry
 
We need to have RocketBobs post here with all of his Flash stuff.
"Dispatch War Rocket Ajax, To bring back his body."

Moonwalker, what is the origin of the book you show, with the guard photos spread?

It's a shot from the booklet that came with the press kit.

a klytus mask, or even the rings he wore would be pretty cool. the entire costume would be remarkably easy compared to something like mings wardrobe :)

its on my top 10 "wanna own" replicas, sometime in my life, list :)

The latex tree stump creature still exists somewhere. Either someone here posted a pic or it was in one of the auction catalogs, but I remember seeing it.
 
There's a great Photo of it in an old Starlog, I think Martin Bower created it along with the Miniature Spaceships for the Film.

If I find the Issue I'll let you know.

The best Queen song was the Flash Gordon "theme" song. It was a great movie.

Now you're talking crazy. Maybe the best Queen movie song was "Flash Gordon" but there are so many other really very well done Queen tunes.

Back on track, Klytus mask all the way. He looks more like Doctor Doom than the FF movie version did.
