So... not anymore? I don't see where you said that changed from Page 3.
We have a metal ring on order, and we wanted to make this a metal ring. After looking at better screen caps, the original isn't a metal ring.
As much as people want the hero prop to be metal, it's not. It's a 3D print. There are at least two rings in the movie. The one Rose wears is NOT the same as the one broom boy wears. There is absolutely no reason to think that they would go to the trouble of casting this prop in metal.
The hero prop is painted, gold. All the same color. If you make the ring metal, it won't look like the hero prop. It will look like a metal part slapped on a painted part. Inaccurate.
We could cast our ring in metal, and we may down the line, but for now it will be as the hero prop.
This is very much like the Ep. 1 Obi saber. It was all "metal, metal, metal" from fans.....then people gathered that the black parts were delrin plastic, and that was then all the rage.
We are all about the hero prop, as it was made.
