Things Which Someone Has Spent Hours Making
About time for another Prop Store article, I think. Don't forget that some of the newer items have probably been sold before we get a chance to report on them; if you're desperate for that special item, I'd check their site every day.
| Item | Series/Episode | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Kryten 'Restore To Factory Settings' Stamp | 'Back In The Red' Part One | £59.00 |
| Computer Keyboard | Series VIII | £75.00 |
| Secretary Kochanski Costume | Only The Good... | £625 |
| Kryten Grey Case | 'Pete' Part Two | £229 |
| Kryten Duster | 'Back In The Red' Part Two | £189 |
| JMC 'Engaged' Blind Fold | 'Back In The Red' Part Three | £229 |
| JMC Folder | Not stated - anyone seen it? | £75 |
| Computer Keypad | Series VIII | £75 |
| Legion Costume | Legion | £545 |
| Prison Meal Tray | Series VIII | £25 |
| SSS Silverberg Sign | Cassandra | £95 |
We hate to say this, but we wish The Prop Store would be a bit more accurate; some silly errors have been appearing in their descriptions. For example, the Factory Settings stamp appeared in the first part of BITR, not the second - and there have been plenty of mistakes made in the past. Not that important in the grand scheme of things, but still irritating. Anyway; the highlight there is the Legion costume - a damn good price considering how great an episode that is. Legion has the only line in Dwarf that has ever had me rolling around the floor unable to control myself: "Not really. I need it to turn the lights on and off." The 'Engaged' blindfold is also wonderful; it's a particuarly good joke. The settings stamp is rather good too; why not buy it and go round hilariously stamping your friends?

What, they think people are going to spend more money on Series 8? The Script book and Videos were bad enough...

Ah, but you could use the props to re-enact scenes from VIII to MAKE IT BETTER.

Where is the mask from the legion costume?

�189 for a duster!!!!!!!!!!!!! They must think we're stupid.
GNP, must be loosing so much money if they're selling all their props. And then this company selling them for ridiculus prices.

Not that stupid; I bet you someone buys that duster for that price...
I doubt GNP are losing any money at all; I'm sure the DVD sales are doing them very nicely indeed. I think it's a lovely way of doing things; the props are far better off in the hands of people who really want them, rather than rotting away in a cupboard. Unfortunately, there is a premium price for a premium product; even a feather duster is a much-wanted item for a lot of fans if it's in a show you love (and it just happens to be from quite a good scene, too).

Just don't tell them where GNP originally bought their dusters.
