Those were the AP Bottles (Artist Proof) and only five were sent out due to the excessive breakage.
AP-006 is the one going on sale on E-bay along with a Tsing-Tao Bottle... I hope they together with the
bottle glorifier thay will be displayed on will fetch a good price, I could really use the money!

And now it's my turn... 
One 750 ml bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label at Von's - $24.99
One Very Limited Edition replica glass Blade Runner Whiskey Bottle, labels, ribbon, & seal from Paul Smith + Finlandia Vodka - $168.19
End result: PRICELESS! (but wait, there's more...)
Standing next to a sealed vintage 60's Johnnie Walker Black Label 4/5 quart bottle sporting the original labels that inspired Karl's amazingly accurate reproductions:
Proudly displayed on an authentic Johnnie Walker Black Label bottle beautifier stand (and it fits the bottle bottom recess like a glove!  ):
Joining my two other Blade Runner bottles, assorted glassware, and bronze duck:
And together with a small part of my Blade Runner collection:
More of my collection will be shared in other threads... 
But despite all my vintage found items and cool replicas accumulated over years collecting Blade Runner goodies, I owe the newfound pride I have of it to Paul's fantastic bottle... just when I thought it couldn't get any better!
To my new hero, Paul Smith - I raise a glass full of Black in my Cibi poured from YOUR bottle!

Some irreverent.....
... but I work near of Agbar Tower.... another Barcelona symbol.... perhaps there...
Main issue is I have no planned to fill the bottle. I don't drink, thus, its a waste of money and good liquor. Oh, and the bottle will never be in my bar! tsk.... well, I'll think a solution....

Thank you very much, Mr. Smith! Or perhaps I should address you as Maestro, for I am truly humbled by the majestic way you composed, orchestrated, and conducted such a challenging, ethical, inclusive, and inspiring project!
You, sir, are the undisputed King of Bottles, so maybe sir should be changed to Sire, Your Majesty! I am, and forever shall remain, your humble loyal subject and very public admirerer!
So if you ever want to replicate a Saturn lamp, I know I would trust you with mine! |

Wow Mr. Hyde,

Thanks, guys - I'm flattered!
The truth is, my BR collection is scattered all around my house, and even at my office (where a screen-accurate Braun fan keeps me cool when the AC cuts out as it often does). I've seen some VERY impressive cabinet and tabletop displays in this thread - my arrangement was cobbled toether on a folding table just for the shot and is by no means permanent. Maybe this weekend I'll lay out everything I have in one shot... |

It's here and i am over the moon, thank you so much for all the effort put into this amazing piece. Also thanks for the unexpected extras.
To show my extreme gratitude, i will get you a signed copy of M Deeley's new book " Blade Runners" as a gift. I will be seeing him and the Final Cut with book signing on 30th Sept. I will pm you for your address.
Thank you again
