props you will never sell?

[sskunky]

I thought I'd resurrect this thread and see if anyone ever sold the props they would never part with?

Go!

 

[razorsharp192]

Not sold any of the ones i've mentioned before, but I have added a couple more that I wouldn't sell..... Illusive Concepts life size Yoda and life size metal Sword of Omens from Thundercats,

 

[CT1138]

There's plenty of props I own that I *THINK* I'd never sell, but then I go and consider all the times I've actually considered selling my collections, and the motto "never say never" pops into my head.

Forgive the necropost; I just stumbled onto this older thread at lunch and am surprised that it’s not longer than it is. I think it’s a topic worth resurrecting.

Hmmm...

There are a few I will never sell, but the ones I will maintain a death grip on are my Hero Phaser One builds. Anyone who has built these kits up will tell you that they are a colossal PITA with internals that are time consuming to create—and can cause the kind of aggravation where you are at the point of throwing the project against a wall—but the result is so satisfying and worth it.

What's the story with the black one? I haven't seen that version before.

 

[Captain Dunsel]

What's the story with the black one? I haven't seen that version before.

That’s the original version, called the “Phaser Weapon”, aka “The Black and White Phaser One”. This original version was seen in the first few season one episodes of TOS, before they were refurbished by Wah Chang.

I remain cheap and whorish. Nothing is safe.

[AJK001]

It would have to be my Phaser 1's made from John's kit, I have both the B&W and the later version. plus my Communicator collection made from John's kit. As a shout out to Rylo I don't think I would ever sell his ROTJ Reveal Saber either.

BAHAHAHA!!! Right there with ya Brother! Crack of Dawn aint safe!

 

[Kylo1]

Although I have bought and sold many things over the years, I will never part with my Tomenosuke BR blaster, Deac Sterling ANH Stormtrooper blaster, MR Han Solo Elite DL-44, Starkiller V2 or Romans weathered Obi Wan (I should never say never! lol!)

Han Solo Blastech DL-44, Ben Kenobis Lightsaber

 

[Indy Magnoli]

I fear this thread is a cautionary tale of "never say never".

It’s what the “edit” button is for...

 

[benhs1898]

My current answer is my Richard Lim Drive jacket. Hard to beat an original source, no offense Indy

 

[JOATRASH FX]

I've resigned myself to the fact that I simply have a priority list of what order everything goes at.

 

[PAULH]

A huge generalism I know, but it probably easier to let stuff go that we've bought rather than we've made?

 

[bodhicitta7]

My Tom Sullivan Necronomicon replica is in it for the duration.

 

[DiggsBarklightr]

Definitely my DL-44. It was the first prop I ever made.

 

[TurnipyOdour]

I'll never sell my screen used Firefly/Serenity props or my collection of Mal Reynolds pistols.

My Beta-Capsule.
