I am looking for something that is true to the film used stunt as possible, at least in aesthetics. I do think there is a market for the more durable versions, but this one will just sit on my shelf. I am in for the plain black resin one for now and can send $ by the weeks end.
I am also willing to get on an interest list for the possible rubber version too. If the Rubber version is a go by the time I get cash together, I would probably upgrade to that version. So I guess I am saying which ever version works best for you Bryan, I am in on.

Hi
I'm with Andy on this one. I would LOVE a casting as close to the original Stunt as possible, with the fitted Amber grips. Count me in for one of those - and I don't care how long it takes!
On a seperate note; Andy, thanks for the tip, I checked out flickr but could only find one photo of the "Pistol used in the film Blade Runner, 1982, The Paul Allen Family Collection " and it's pretty small! Did I miss something, or did you find any others?
Interesting paint job on it too, very shiny ! |

That was done after the filming i think. It was coated with a glossy clear to keep the rubber from breaking down any more. |

I'm still interested but I won't have any discretionary income for the foreseeable future as I relocate to a different city for work.
It's a great piece of history that I would love to have in my collection, but alas it is not meant to be right now.
Thanks,
Bruce |

You know! That rubberizer spray that Temponaut had talked about could give this a nice "Rubber Stunt" feel.

I was thinking of masking off the grips and hitting it with that stuff. Assuming I can find some here in the city or online. _________________

I got a pretty good description of one of the real stunts from an owner and the rubber body is enclosed in a hard glossy shell, not sure if this was done only after filming by a collector to keep the rubber from degrading, or if it was done during filming. Supposedly the one in the Seattle Sci-Fi museum is also finished the same way.
Can't wait for this Bryan. It will take a place with my Spinner emblem that is also cast from a screen used piece 1 gen away.
Thank you so much,
Andy |

I read on the internet that it was to stop the rubber from "breaking down" |
