Not much that'd qualify as canon, but here's some of my 'versy loot...
...which is inside the cigar box I made...
...to go with my bar set set...
...and I've got some other stuff here.
I've got a couple t-shirts, two unfinished pistols, some misc collectables...
-and one brand new addition I will post once I take some pics of it. :love

WOW.
Any chance of getting a copy of that Blue Sun Cigars image? As a long time cigar smoker, I would LOVE to make one of those myself. Might even have to make some Blue Sun cigar bands.

Thanks, I found the files for the label and put the high res .png on online. You can get it on this page - the link is below the preview picture.
I'd love to get my hands on a tallcard set and some authentic coins, if I can get a deal on them. I haven't been searching very hard though.

Got a tax stamp and all. I have some cigar band artwork if you would like to add some cigars to the box.

Say... weren't you the one who gave me the idea for this box anyways? B) <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Great_Bizarro @ Dec 15 2006, 11:18 AM) [snapback]1378693[/snapback]</div>
That would be mighty shiny of you, post 'em up. Any idea on what type (or at least size) cigar Jayne liked? I wouldn't mind picking up some cheap ones to throw in there with the rest of the tidbits.
From what I remember in the series, he seemed to favor the smaller ones, say Panatela or Corona, so 30-40 ring guage. No idea as to length since we only ever saw him with a stub in his maw. I can't remember what episode(s) from the series, or if he smoked any in Serenity.
Just what I needed, another excuse for yet another re-watch.
Thanks Don Solo for the cigar box stuff, how did you affix your label?. Did you use special paper to print it on, or is it normal paper glued on etc?
Thanks.

Here's all I did:
•printed that labels at about 6" in height on regular printer paper with the printer set at 300 dpi.
•cut out the labels (I didn't like the way my tax stamp worked out)
•masked off the area of the box that the labels were go on
•sprayed the back of the labels and the exposed area of the box with regular spray adhesive
•waited about a minute and places the labels on the box and pressed everything nice and flat.
•let it all dry, removed the masking, and lightly sprayed the whole box with a clear acrylic sealer
that of course was after weathering the box with a variety of paints, tea, dirt and graphite...
simple, eh? :love

Gonna hit the local cigar shop tomorrow and dig up a nice used box.

Here's my screen-used Firefly / Serenity pile:
- Two 100's and a 500 bill
- Prototype "Alliance" 500 bill (this is the a non-screen-used item. I got it from the incredibly nice Geoff Mandel last year, and it's my favorite piece).
- Generic "Blue Sun" food can.
- Peach tin that River belts Jayne with.
- Grenade (stunt version, but working).
- Prototype pulse beacon (also not screen-used, but true to the illustration seen in the Serenity Visual Guide, and my second favorite piece. It even has a pulsing red light.)

As for the box's check Hobby Lobby I think that or Michaels was where I got my last box. It was under $5.00 but needed to be stained.
