Yes that was amazing.  I was just trying to think what else she might make. 

A lot of the props seem just too big - the Goblet of Fire, the Egg, Beauxbuxtons Carriage  ROFL!  I reckon some more bits from the quidditch world cup would look good.  Didn't Ron have a little player that flew around his hand?  And I seem to remember Sheamus and Dean wearing rosettes.

Not that I trying to make you work of course Kelly  Roll Eyes  It's just that talent-challenged people like me need your props to ooh and arr at  Grin

Hey, the egg might not be hard to make.  There are paper mache forms and plastic eggs that would need only a coating of gold paint.  It's fairly easy to find a hinged egg, but I'm not sure what the inside of the tournament egg looks like.

The GOF UK premiere was today, so it won't be long before we're able to see the movie (and the cards). Smiley

I know it is a bit soon Kelly but have you got any props in mind that you are going to make from GOF?
I'm taking a break for a while.  I'll probably hold off until I see the movie, then decide.  That way I'll know exactly what everything looks like instead of having to guess.  I would love to make an egg!  That's one I'll have to think about for a while.  Smiley

I haven't really made anything movie accurate...ever. I usually just hot glue colored paper together and slap it on another paper skeleton and make something that I think it looks like from the movie Cool

ALL REPLICA PROP SELLERS BEWARE!!!  Well, my Quidditch World Cup program just got VERO'ed and pulled off ebay.  Looks like that's the end of replica props for me.  I hope they don't suspend me for that or anything.  I've got card auctions ending tonight.  Hopping Mad

But yours was not exact!  The inside was different!!  That totally sucks.  I may be bidding on your auctions later too, so I hope they don';t get removed.

Darn, that's too bad Kelly. Sad  You have the best Quidditch Program replica I've ever seen with all the cool inside pages. Undecided

Why did they take it down? I cant, for the life of me, figure out why? They didnt before the movie was out, or did they take it down for that reason Undecided

Even thought they don't offer a program prop themselves, I was selling it with the trademark "Harry Potter" name attached.  I think if I had been selling it as "Wizard sports program" I would have been fine, but then no one would have seen it.  Undecided  Actually it was really stupid of me to list it right after the movie came out.  I'm sure Warner Bros. is trolling Ebay for violations.

You are allowed to resell replica props you have bought from Noble, etc. and also real movie props that you have gotten from the set.  But I see that someone has relisted a prop replica that they made.  I'll have to check into that to see what's up.  Thanks.

That is rotten Kelly.  I think you were just dead unlucky being singled out.  About a year ago my brother tried to sell a little plastic Oscar on Ebay.  You know the six inch tacky plastic type.  He listed it as a replica, plastic, six inch silver novelty item and the Academy of Motion Pictures made him remove it  Shocked  The reason was that Oscars cannot be sold  Shocked

I reckon Ebay are reacting to JKR's complaints about forged autographs for sale.  Bet they don't remove them though  Hopping Mad

Here is my newest prop replicas Grin

This was printed on my new birthday present. The Lexmark X1185 printer/sanner/copier Cool



BTW - The "ti" mistake has been corrected Grin 

This was created of a picture of the actuall prop provided for me. I'm sorry to say I can not give it out Lips Sealed But I saw no harm in putting up the replica Smiley

I love the Hogwarts crest at the bottom.  Did you get that off the internet?  And that font is just perfect  Smiley

Anna has pointed out a few more mispelled words but I've checked over the prop and these words seem to be on it Undecided I'll try to correct them if I can Smiley

The crest came from the HP Lexicon, just googled "Hogwarts Crest"
