Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - Highlander 1 & 2

Thanks Daryl ! That's something coming from you :cool

They're just put together for display though, nowhere near like the 'battle ready' ones you make. Man, those are masterpieces !

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrivals - RPF Members Art & Star Trek

To me, and even though some would see me tied to a stake, doused in petrol & set alight for saying this :lol, the RPF goes beyond mere prop replicas.

Besides prop replicas, several members create beautiful items, that I can only classify as art.

Yet having a tie to the RPF, I display them proudly as part of my Prop Collection

Two such items are,


From Belsilene, here is an astonishingly detailed miniature replica of the Rosetta Stone which is housed in the British Museum.

And from The Schlitzie, one of the most creative things I have seen in quite a while, here is his rendition of a mummified Cottingley Fairy :lol

I am laughing not because it is laughable, but because it encompasses so many of these - :cool - that I wouldn't know where to start the praise from, so I say nothing and let the pictures do the talking :lol

No, I haven't strayed from the path of enlightenment :lol, so here's a modified Star Trek Next Generation Tricorder with Gerry's graphics and electronics, side by side with an original Playmates Tricorder.

Yep. It's been a loooooong road :lol. The delay was due to the graphics. I totally botched a set Gerry sent me :confused, and I ended up asking him to do a second one for me :lol

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrivals - RPF Members Art & Star Trek

Awesome,Alan! I'm glad it made it to you. I noticed your pictures capture the look of that beef jerky looking skin on the fairy,hehe. I must say, your collection is awesome! I noticed your Fiji Mermaid too,very cool.

Alan, I wonder whether you plan to get prop replicas of the robots from Mystery Science Theater 3000 or not.

That you so very much for the kind words fellows

Alan, I wonder whether you plan to get prop replicas of the robots from Mystery Science Theater 3000 or not.

Not in the forseeable future I'm afraid.

You are almost out of room there Alan :lol

For large items ? Getting there :lol

For normal sized ones ? Still a long way to go

Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrivals - Predator & Time Bandits

Why aren't you getting prop replicas of the robots from MST3K? I think I know where you can buy some. Of course, fan-made replicas of the MST3K robots are very expensive.

Do you have any prop replicas from the Farscape TV show?
