What are your most desired obscure props?

[drusselmeyer]

For many years, I have sought out references for props that are very unclear or nearly unseen. My list includes:

1.) Centauri's laser from The Last Starfighter
2.) Police pistols from Steven Spielberg's A. I.
3.) The altimeter watch from Gravity

What is on your list?

The Hugyfot Hasselblad diving housing held by one of the astronaut during the pit excursion in 2001

I always wanted an ORAC from Blake's Seven. I wonder if I couldn't make it functional, like a custom computer housing or the like. I know there are a few build threads on here - someday, when I have bandwidth, room and time

In a similar vein, my middle school friend owned a water collection. His traveling dad would bring some home from every major body of water he visited. Oceans, seas, rivers, etc. All in identical glass jars. 100% real- his dad was NOT just giving him tap water!

Castor Troy's money clip from Face/Off

You can find the Face/Off money clip with an on-line search for "dragon head money clip". This will show you a company TranNYC. I do not know anything about the company or their products. This is NOT a recommendation - just an attempt to help a follow collector with information.

An on-line search for "deep metal circular tin" will provide a starting point for the Private Ryan dirt containers. I did not find any exact matches with my quick pass through the images - but there are many contemporary possibilities. The tin does NOT have a screw lid so that eliminates many options. The edge of the lid is distinctive. It appears to be concave but that may just be an artifact of the lighting. Additional images would be helpful to find the exact item.

Ya I dont trust that but I think I might cast my own in brass with lost pla process

The stolen Death Star plans from Star Wars.

It’s one of the most famous macguffins in film, and drives much of the plot, but we only got a brief, vague glimpse of the data card Leia inserts into R2-D2. Almost nothing is known about the prop itself (last time I checked).

The Rogue One version is delightful, but I’m still wondering about the original.

'Box' from 'Star Cops', the hero's personal computer. Can't find a clear enough photo anywhere and the original prop got turned into the toaster in 'Red Dwarf'!

The glasses from Sr and Jr catch up on the Zeppelin in Last Crusade

Been hunting for them for ages but to no avail!

 

[drusselmeyer]

That reminds me... Deckard's and Tyrell's eye glasses from Blade Runner!

 

[ALLEY]

The famous headset from “A Clockwork Orange” so that I may watch The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy properly…
