Blade Runner 2049 props and replicas

Yes there is a polar bear inside….

Here’s something interesting, I found a vintage marble from the worlds fair in New York, has an accurate size and look but is damaged. This could double as a replica memory orb that was damaged during “the blackout.”
(Sorry for the low res images)
Now I can get a holder and add it to my blade runner display!!

In the future, I’m going to complete my wallet, add speed loaders w/ LUMI-Shock rounds (courtesy of Etsy) and add various stickers/ writing to the exterior of the box.

Btw how do you all like my PDK Blaster? Please let me know if I should add anything to it.

Weathered my resin blaster to give it a more of a rusted looked, kind of like the worldcon photos. Currently working on the LED’s within the cartridge and weathering the cartridge.

I also bought the General Electric’s retcon 1 radio that is seen in Gaff’s Spinner throughout the film as well as all the cards for my wallet replica.

Saw this on another Blade Runner blaster thread. Does anyone know why this happens and how to avoid it?
I am now scared to get gloss spray paint anywhere near my grips for my PKD (which are also made of resin). I don’t know whether I should leave them on and just use a different brand of paint or take them off and spray on the gloss clear separately. What should I do?

Pine Sol could be the answer. The floor polish can be easily sprayed with an airbrush and will not damage your grips. You can buff them with a nylon/soft cloth.

Finished up the weathering last night. I’ve decided that I’m not going to clear coat it because it will take away that rusted, hero prop finish I’m going for. I finished the mag this morning. Repainted it a matte black and put some reflective tape on the inside to make the light bounce around more, worked out well. Today I went thrifting and found that gold Kreisler lighter, looks great on display with the rest of the stuff. It really fits in with the aesthetic of Blade Runner. I also started making the interior of the case (The cards for my wallet should be here within the next few weeks).

Oh, and I’m also gonna watch both films again tonight

Hello all, I need some help. I'm looking for a member here who did a run some years ago for "officer K's light-up display". I can't remember his nickname : I have issues with my kit and I'd like to get in touch with him to get some advise. Thanks in advance. Here's a photo of the kit.

Holy crap, today at my local antique shop I found the shot glasses!!! 4 for $10, what a steal!! They look amazing with my display!

One more thing.

Is there any source for the complete photo that K found in the metal tin?

Replica cigarette tins being sold on Amazon! They are made of real metal and the customer photos make them seem pretty legit. I placed my order, only 2 left for those who are interested!

I would very much be interested in your thoughts on the quality of the tin when you receive it.

I’ll let you know, should be in Wednesday. Obviously some weathering is going to have to be done but other than that it looks good. I’ll take some photos and let you know of the overall quality when it arrives.

I bought one of those a couple of years back and , whilst not 100% accurate, I was most happy with it given the price.
Here's mine after a bit of weathering.

I couldn't find one in the UK, so I made my own a little while ago from a plain tobacco tin I got from eBay not quite the right proportions but roughly the same size). Some printed labels and a bit of paint later I ended up with this. I admit may have been a bit overenthusiastic with the weathering!

That looks really nice. That’s what I was going to initially do for mine but then I found the replica on Amazon for pretty cheap so I ended up getting it.

Who makes the best officer K badge perhaps from metal?
