Replica “I Dream of Jeannie” bottle on Walmart.com

[Jedifather]

As low as $9.99 depending on which seller…

The bottom section looks a little narrow, but for 10 bucks, worth a shot.

I’ll post pics when it arrives.

You’d think for their “beauty website photo”, they would have taken more care with the paint and glue application. Look at that glue. Lol

I believe that the expected quality was implied by the identification of the seller…

YIKES!

 

[Jedifather]

I guess that’s why they’re on clearance.

Of course the original bottle was just a random vintage bottle found by the propmaster in an antique shop.

A friend of mine, back in the 1980s, scoured antique shops and found two of them. As I recall they were grey glass.

The designs were painted on by the prop people.

I got one about 25 years ago at a garage sale for $1.50

Oh please. I Dream of Jeannie was cancelled before the photographer(s) were even born, so they had no idea why they were taking photos of a bottle.

LOL. The same images are used on multiple Alexpress listings:

Isn't this one of those Amazon-style "3rd Party listings" that has nothing to do with Walmart directly, they're just the online marketplace being sold through?
As an Aussie, I'll be picking up one of the Aliexpress ones, but pretty confident it'll be the same thing. Either way it'll hopefully be good enough to display on the shelf

 

[Jedifather]

I’m usually wary of those 3rd party listings, but if it’s at least decent enough for display, like you said, I’ll be satisfied.

 

[Jedifather]

Ok, I was wrong.

It’s a clean casting and the paint was done neatly. The colors are off, and more undersized than I expected.

Oh well. I’ll just keep it next to the ridiculously small Fertility Idol that stated “Life-sized” in the listing.

I really have to stop buying from those sketchy websites.

 

[Moviefreak]

the paint was done neatly.

yeah, I’m going to have to disagree.

 

[Apollo]

meh, what do you expect for 10.00 bucks….

I’d either repaint it, or just spray it solid gray and call it a 1/2 scale maquette for display.

 

[PicasoX]

yeah, I got mine yesterday, its tiny! I guess I can't complain too much, it was only $12, Also I can;t let my Jeanie out, the cork is sealed.

 

[Robot Monster]

Canceled the order. I have the undersized version in my collection. Thanks for trying to find a good version.
