Full circle

During these last months I realized that I am living a full-circle moment as collector. Probably last year Holy Grail additions to my collection were totally unimaginable for me 5 years ago. I have always dreamed with a screen-used Xena's sword with scabbard, a screen-used dark chakram or even a screen-used metal Yin Yang chakram... I really don't know if it was just luck, or I just was in the right place in the right moment, who knows...

Left to right, Athena's stunt sword, Gabrille's Helicon sword signed by Renée O'Connor, Xena's hero metal chakram. On the other side, Livia's sword and Xena's hero dark chakram.

Inside the shadow box, Gabrielle's sai, Kin Con style dagger, Xena's boot dagger, Ghaphyra's dagger, Athena style dagger, lattice dagger, Roman dagger and cannibal dagger. 

In the front, Xena's hero metal sword, Xena's hero resin sword signed by Lucy Lawless, Xena's Todd prelicensed sword and Xena's set used scabbard.

My collection: Favorite props and replicas

Today I bring you a pair of photos of my Xena collection favorite props and replicas. Xena Creation Entertainment sword is always a "Must", as the dark chakram, yin yang chakram and Gabrielle sais. On the other hand, a screen used Xena hero metal sword is always an iconic piece from the series like the Prometheus hero metal sword with "faux" gems inlay.

In the second photo, you have my Xena displayed costume in the left side: The costume combines a screenused stunt Xena breastplate, back plate and shoulder guards (with a real copper hammered parts done by a black smith based in Xena latest seasons style). The gauntlets and armbands are Limited Edition replicas distributed by Creation Entertainment, Knee guards are screenused ones, boots are from Todd's Costumes early work and the Xena leathers were made by me based in the screenused season 3/4 Xena costume with a real copper medallion done by the same black smiths that did Xena armour in New Zealand. 

In the right side, it is Gabrielle screen worn season 6 velvet costume with real silver cuffs and armband purchased from the same company that did the ones seen on screen, boots and sai straps (s6 style) are screenused. Also, Gabrielle season 6 Limited Edition necklace replica distributed by Creation Entertainment.

Lights and sword holders

Some led lights and swords holders to make my show case organized and clear. 

Hercules Photoshoot

Today I bring you a photo shoot of the Hercules costume that I own that it is almost completed, just missing a pair of boots. Probably one of my favorites costumes, that includes a screenused leather vest and undershirt worn by Kevin Sorbo himself, screenused belt worn by stunt double, leather pants and Limited Edition Hercules gauntlets made by the company Todds Costumes.

XENA COLLECTION EXPO OCT 22

Hi guys! Yesterday I have the chance of taking a few photos of my personal permanent Xena collection that I've acquired during the last 10 years at least, the collection combines screenused Hero costumes, props and a few replicas. Was a hard job to reunited all this stuff and I'm still thinking about how to display it properly, for the moment is placed as it is in the photos.

In this general photo you can see Xena hero costume, Gabrielle hero season 3&4 and season 6 costumes. Plenty of swords, proud of my Xena hero metal sword hanged in the shadow box in the wall, my screenused Gabrielle sais over the Creation Limited Edition Sais, some screenused dagger and replicas, the amazon turtle shield, a roman shield, a few axes, an spear, the AFIN katanas and Creation Entertainment chakras, sais, breast dagger & whip. In the middle of the dresser you can see a Xena metal replica based in the screenused one and a leather scabbard.
