Posted: Wed May 21, 2008 10:17 am Post subject: RETRO WALLET BADGE SETS FOR GAFF, HOLDEN and BRYANT |
|
|
Before they were Blade Runners, these guys were cops assigned to various units in the LAPD, circa 2012. Bryant was still a lieutenant, Gaff and Holden were detectives. There was no need for a Blade Runner unit because in that era, replicants were not much more sophisticated than C3P0.
I will soon have metal badge wallet sets identical to the Deckard set previously shown and sold, only for the other cops from Blade Runner. Same attention to detail, same quality in the materials used.
Pics up soon, but they look exactly like the Deckard retro sets. My particular favorite character in the movie is Bryant, the salty, seasoned cop who has seen more and knows more than he reveals. Being a lieutenant myself, I identify with him more (I am also more like him in age, attitude, personality, etc.).
Anyway, this is a heads up. Now that my metalsmith is up and running, more of my projects are underway including the gold color wallet badge that is a small version of the Worldcon badge. Will keep everyone posted.
Added this pic, please note that the LAPD union card is not shown, but is similar to the one shown in the Deckard retro set. Yes, it is a gold colored badge and "995" plate.

Of course, before they were COP, they were Little People. |

Are you suggesting that Gaff, Holden and Bryant are... REPLICANTS?!
And of course by "little people" I meant that they were dwarfs and midgets. |

Here's a peek at the Gaff police ID. It was hard to find era and age appropriate photos for Gaff's police ID and DL.

And without trying to sound like I'm beating a dead horse:
Are you willing to sell just the wallet with the metal badges?
I've got lot's of I.D.s and filler cards so... |

From the lack of response I get when I ask this question I'm going to go ahead an assume the answer is "NO"...which is fine with me, one more way to be saving some money if I can't purchase! |

I totally forgot about your request. Sorry. This was a semi-private, sort of commission project. Clients who publicly acknowledged obtaining sets include Matt Munson (who did a very nice and favorable write up) and actor Morgan Paull (Holden).
There are a few odd pieces left that were not "A" grade that I might post up for sale.
I have a left over couple of complete sets that I just stashed away for Deckard, Gaff and maybe one for Bryant. |
