Rarest prop replica (or real prop) you own

While it may not be the rarest or priciest prop I own, I've always valued my Larbel stainless steel Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon TPM sabers. My Obi is even upgraded by various parts like the correctly knurled red button, purple hemi'd brass knob and led'd stainless buttons from Jedivic. You could say it has more sentimental value as it marked my first forays into prop collecting.

Mine has got to be the Gummi Handlink from Quantum Leap... I haven't ever come across another one.

I have two original Star Trek Phase II communicator prototypes (out of three I have ever seen sold). I am not sure how many were made exactly but I don't think a lot. :lol
One of the Communicators came with a Brad Nelson Phase II P1 that I have lost track of (I think one of the kids got it and hid it somewhere, hopefully not outdoors) :cry

While I don't have any rare prop.. I'd say that the blaster from Blade Runner is the rarest.. And the most expensive prop ever...
 
Not sure on the rarity, but the two props i get asked the most about are my Biff Tannen Cane and my Cookie Monster Puppet Replica.
 
the most rare things ive had were, 1st, i found on ebay many years back the same type scope used on the mg15 sandtrooper blaster, bought for $26 sold it for over 1k, it was a generation 0 top secret night vision scope from ww2 that had recently been sold out of a bunker auction, im not sure how the guys got a hold of this back in the 70's
the other's - i walked into a thrift shop and found a pair of sierra sneekers, these were used for the biker scout boots, at that time a was the second to report ever finding a pair, two weeks later i walked into the same store, and found another pair, never worn, tags were even still on.
 
It would have to be Alice, my replica of "Vera" from Firefly. Only one metal replica of this prop exists. (The darn thing took two years to put together!)

I have a Larbel-O very early plasmablade hilt with rectangle switch activation. Bought in 1999. I was only 18 and had to have it. It was a lot of money to me back then. It means the most to me and probably the rarest replica I have. I can't tell you how many there are, but I've never seen it on any forums or ebay.

Hi, new to the forum and this is an awesome place. Well, to add in on this thread my rarest piece would be battlestar galactica viper helment that was made and used by Richard Hatch in his Second Coming movie. The viper helment you see in his movie he's wearing is the one I have. Its autographed by him also.
 
I have a Totokia that I picked up fifteen years ago from the Fiji Trade Commissioner here in Los Angeles. After years of having it around my house, I showed it to Tony Swatton. He is going to help me make the accurate metal mace-end of it. It's not screen accurate- but I think it is a little more elegant (and larger) than the one used in ANH. As it is made of one piece of hand carved vesi-wood, I think it's pretty rare. Pics to follow....
 
My most valuable would prob be my copy of 'Advanced Potion Making' book I made that was signed at the final Harry Potter premier in London by 9 cast inc. Emma Watson and Rupert Grint, Director David Yates, Producer David Heyman and then author JK Rowling. I've never seen another one autographed. TBH it might be valauble in time but I can't imagine ever parting with it.

My big chunk of The Orca from JAWS, direct from Martha's Vineyard with a double signed letter of authenticity. It's one of my favourite things:

Re: Rarest prop replica you own

I have a casting of the hero Spindrift miniature from LOTG and the Flying Sub miniature that lauched from the large Seaview miniature.
. I speak for myself and maybe others to say an accurate prop copy of the spindrift would be loved and cherished, sad moebuis models won't make a large scale one. Have you ever thought of making copies?
