Callisto's metal dagger

My lastest acquisition is a Callisto’s metal dagger replica from Todd Coyle. I never thought I was going to be able to find this dagger, but it happened. 

Probably is the rarest replica from this company, I have just seen a few of them in the last 15 years. I had several conversations with Todd in the last weeks and he confirmed that he made a mold of a resin casting from the show, the set used dagger he owned was rough, so he took time to clean up the sculpture and cast it in metal.

This one is numbered #87. There weren’t sold no more than 100/200 units. The dagger is made of solid aluminum and leather wrapped in the handle.

The dagger was sold originally with a leather sheath and a certificate of authenticity from Davis Merchandising Corp 2006©️. A very rare replica that completed my Callisto’s costume.

 

Xena & Gabrielle display

Last weekend I took a few photos of my favorite costumes of my collection. 

In the right side is Xena's costume: the armour is set used stunt double piece, made of moduled fiber glass and leather, except of the copper shoulderguards pieces replicas that are screen accurate and were forged by @xenawarriorreplicas. Xena's leathers are a screen accurate replica with a copper medallion forged by the New Zealand blacksmiths from the series and a set used chakram hook. The gauntlets and armbands are made of copper and are Creation Entertainment replicas. Kneeguards are set used and the pair of boots are my lastest acquisition used in the series too.

In the middle, Gabrielle's  Amazon Queen costume worn by Renée O'Connor in season 5 and 6. The costume includes an Amazon Queen necklace too, iconic! It includes the leather bra, skirt, undershorts, belt, necklace, a pair of leather gauntlets, a pair of armbands and the shoulder piece.

In the left side, Gabrielle's hero signature costume from season 6 worn by Renée O'Connor. The costume includes the velvet bra, skirt, undershorts, boots, sai straps and the leaf pedant necklace. The silver cuffs were bought from the same company that provided them to the series.

Behind the costumes are three shadow boxes with: Xena's original chakram, yin yang chakram and a Gabrielle's sais from Creation Entertainment.

Happy 29th Anniversary!

September 4, 1995. Last week was the anniversary from my favorite series ever. A series that changed my life, helped to create my identity and my way of living. 

The first season of the television series Xena: Warrior Princess commenced airing in the United States and Canada on September 4, 1995, concluded on July 29, 1996, and contained 24 episodes.

Happy 29th anniversary xenites, to my beloved warrior pricness from Amphipolis and her battling bard from Potedaia.
