If you know the actual size of the plaque, measure how many plaques high the column is.

I don't. I only have the repro 45th Anniversary plaque, which I assume to be close to actual size though I never got an answer to that when I asked previously. So I can only approximate brick size and it's been at least a decade since I was there myself and never paid attention to the columns. The thing is in photos I've seen it seems a bit taller than what I estimate it to be from the brick size- though maybe the photos showed only very short people.

I did pretty well in a recent visit to Memento Mori. Multiple T-Shirts, the Bat Stanchion Ice Cube Trays (which work exceptionally), the HM Pen, and a few other trinkets. They were completely sold out on the Gargoyle-Topped Frame for the Spirit Photos. Luckily I was able to get one that was returned by someone. Sadly I needed two for spirit photos my wife and I had taken. According to Disney DeliverEARS they are due for another shipment (actually three more spaced over two months) in February. Sigh.
I also attempted a 123D Catch of one of Captain Culpepper Clyne's Crypt Dolphins/Fish. Turned out pretty well....now to get it on the CNC

Yup
...for the Haunted Mansion fan...it's quite the experience! I finally got to see Leota in the Mirror on the wall. Seems she was having some prime time jitters the first day I went...but in fine form my last day!

Love the paint up work on them as always! I still have a resin set I need to paint up. Was toying with the idea of adding a spacer between the handle and mount to give the handle a more functional look.

Looks excellent Rylo!
Anyone ever do a cane handle like that Disney 45th anniversary version? Thinking of tackling that myself for my Haunted a mansion Halloween costume.

Those look great Rylo, any way to make them a functional door handle?
Thanks. Yeah, I'm gonna stick a screw through the back of mine and add a washer. Probably going to mount to a nice stained piece of wood.
Thinking up a display, now.

I suppose if used very carefully and properly set-up, yes. Not on anything you'd use regularly though. The resin wouldn't hold up to any real abuse.

Here's a quick solution for displaying the door handles. I was originally planning to go to the wall with this, but decided it looks much better free-standing. It really accentuates how ornate these pieces truly are.
I plan to add a plaque, but the only other thing I did to this was stick a green led on the back of the base. :thumbsup
NOTE: Will be adding a spacer between handle and back plate. It's drying now.

LOVE that method to display it. That's thinking outside the box right there :thumbsup
I believe it's Open Edition. I check today and still nothing. They sold out in one day. No word on when they'll be back in stock. Wish they would limit one per person.
Do we know if it's open edition?
