Blade Runner- A Web of Props (Original Pics updated)

[Prop Runner]

*BUMP* for Nick - now beside the Deckard ID, all your Whackychimp posted pcis have X es on them...

This thread is too important not to be archived - please ask Whacky to reinstate the photos so you can know which ones were lost, and then maybe move them to a permanent hosting site.

Looking forward to more discoveries.

Dangit, they are gone.

I'll see what I can do for a permanent housing situation.

By the way there is more to reveal as of yet. Can't wait to show you guys the incredible dorkiness of my discoveries.

I'll ask Neil (Yodaman) to take a look at this thread for future archiving.

I promise to show you guys some more cool stuff. Work has been insane over the last six months. Need to work on so many projects.

Hey Nick.

Thanks for updating the pics and for posting in my DUNE thread. I look forward to your newest discoveries. Have you seen Phil's recent thread on the Ennis Brown house? It's in an alarming state of deterioration...

Man, that would be GREAT. So much of this thread is LOST without photographic references.

:thumbsup :thumbsup

 

[nick daring]

I swear I'll be able to get to all of this and more very soon.

Don't sweat it, guys - we're all just "little people" to Nick...

I just didn't know if it was a simple server problem that could be fixed, or if it was a bigger problem. The pics have been gone for over a year now, so I guess it IS a more complex problem.

I'll be patient. :confused

:lol


:::EDIT:::

A Star Wars guy uses his 2000th post on a Blade Runner thread. What have you people DONE to me?.?

 

[nick daring]

The pics got droppeed a while ago from the wackyshimp server. I then organized and reposted them but they got dropped again.

I'll reorganize and repost again and put it on a permanent server.

Maybe with this thread bump we can get contributors to go back and repost pics so we can archive this thread completely intact.

I posted these for you guys, right:

I was just looking at the movie yesterday and wondered if anyone had any access to (now or in the past) to the original Screen used hero blaster? I have a question about something I noticed and would like someone in the know (you know). Sorry if that sounds mysterious, but if I've discovered something unique i'd like to see if it could be confirmed before making a fool of myself.

 

[Prop Runner]

I'm sure Phil will chime in soon about this, but from what I understand, Ridley kept the firing hero for himself.

Why don't you ask your question anyway, because good chance it's already been addressed. I make a fool of myself here all the time and it just makes me more endearing... :lol

Talisen,
Yep, go ahead. You may want to check the archived thread on the Blaster in the Archived Prop Threads section a good 28 page read. Plus some few small discoveries by yours here that were not added to that thread and sadly got lost.

Go ahead, ask

 

[philippes]

When I interviewed one of the Blade Runner property masters in 1998 (who recently retired), he told me he personally sent the firing hero to England for promotional purposes. To the best of his knowledge, it never came back. He assumed Ridley got it.

It's my understanding that Ridley has a lot of props from the film, and that he's become quite a fan of the movie himself.

Thanks guys, I always thought of this as the master BR thread. I'll check that thread tonight when I have more time and then we'll see
