Be very careful of the photoetched parts for the Hades landscape and blimp as original BR parts. The effects company that worked on the film made tons of them, and continued to use the parts on other films, as well as give them away as gifts. I have a display base that uses some of the photo etching and casts from the Tyrell Pyramid in it that I paid about $100 for. Propstore has been selling many of the unused stuff for decades. Unless it has electronics, aged and be screen matched it is very likely not directly from the film. Still a cool piece, but not worth the price without iron clad provenance, even though it might possibly be from the film. Even signed COAs from the people that worked on the film are often not worth the paper printed on, because they are often the ones supplying the "Spare parts" to the auction houses, from their loose bits. These guys often could use the extra bucks themselves, and in their minds it is the same stuff regardless when it was made, because they know all the stages of production already. Sad that they don't even realize they were not made for the city set either. Could be real, but no way to really prove it.

Good to know Andy I'll admit I'm naive enough to have taken it as gospel, that itwas the real deal purely on propstore selling it.
So buyer beware and in hindsight if I had the spare dough I'd be getting a couple of new blasters

As I read somewhere else: My only fear is that I die and that my wife sells my props for what she thinks they're worth.....!!!!
