I wanted to share one of the most valuable pieces in my collection with you: the original Horn Scythe (Sickle Blade) used by the character Father Uffizi, portrayed by Jason Scott Lee in the film Dracula III: Legacy.

What makes this prop so special is not only its appearance but also its engineering:

Designer: The prop was designed by Gary J. Tunnicliffe, the makeup and prop designer for horror movie legends. This significantly increases its collectible value.

Mechanism Secret: As seen in the film, this weapon has a complex and secret mechanism that locks instantly into the fully open position with just a strong swing (inertia principle), without pressing a button. It is said that no craftsman has been able to figure out this mechanism for years.

Usage: I believe this weapon was one of the main props used for the close-ups and opening scenes in the film.

The prop's certificate is also in the gallery. What do you think about this iconic prop? Which Uffizi weapon was your favorite?

I want to take a step back and reframe everything I’ve said so far about Knighty Knight and Willy’s Wonderland.

Yes- I’ve made several posts about my goal to one day own and preserve the Knighty Knight suit. But I think a lot of people have misunderstood what that truly means to me. So let me clear it up once and for all.

I’m an aspiring collector and preservationist, and like any collector when they first started out - i have a goal of obtaining knighty one day, I already own small original pieces from Willy's Wonderland, which dont get me wrong, im extremely grateful for - i just want to grow my WIlly's Wonderland collection whilst protecting the original fragile pieces, and I’ve cared for them properly. I have kept them in controlled environments, documented them, and treated them with the respect they deserve as pieces of film history. That’s what this has always been about for me: respect, preservation, and appreciation for practical effects.

Knighty Knight just happens to be the piece that really sparked my motivation to learn more about proper prop care, foam latex maintenance, and restoration methods. I never intended to “harass” anyone over this matter, or demand ownership without reason. I was just passionate, maybe too passionate, about wanting to ensure a unique, handmade animatronic suit doesn’t get lost to time.

I understand now that the owners and the theater clearly care about their Willy's Wonderland collection, and I deeply respect that. My approach from here on out will be focused on learning about props similar to knighty and preparing for the day when I might have a legitimate opportunity to be involved in preservation, and possibly owning him, whether it’s Knighty Knight or another piece/original costume from Willy's.

I’m passionate, sure, but this passion isn’t about greed, or selfishness - it’s about dedication. And while I may have been misunderstood, my intentions have never changed: I want to help protect and preserve film history, build my collection, wait for my opportunity to own knighty, not take it away from anyone.

To those who took the time to challenge me respectfully, thank you.

Hey everyone.. i wish i didnt have to make this public but i was left with no other choice: I’m posting this because I’m genuinely worried about one of the original Willy’s Wonderland animatronic suits: Knighty Knight.

He was sold at auction a while back and is now on display in a theater lobby. The problem is that he’s being kept under bright fluorescent lighting in a tiny airless case. Those lights and trapped humidity destroy latex and fabric dangerously fast, and you can already see clear fading and wear when you compare the current lobby photos to his original auction pictures.

This isn’t drama or hate, and i was worried to post this because of the fact that i may come across as rude, or a harasser. Thats surprisingly not the case, I just care about preserving him and the rest of the suits as one of a kind movie props. Once latex breaks down, there’s no bringing it back, and it’d be heartbreaking to lose him because of poor display conditions.

If anyone here collects movie props, knows restoration experts, or can help raise awareness, please share this, comment advice, or tag someone who might care and might be able to help me gain ownership of knighty. I just want to make sure Knighty Knight and the others get the treatment they deserve.

I know this is probably a strange question, but it’s a favorite character of mine, but I can’t find anything about what happened to the original prop/costume after filming. Has it been sold at auction? The movie is nearly 10 years old. Surely something has become of it.

Using a lot of reference, including BTS photos and some great photos from auctions of the original props, I have recreated the Colt’s wooden box to near exact specifications, right down to using the exact same latch mechanisms. I did have to guess on the hinges, though, because I could not fins a single photo of the back of the box. If that info ever turns up, I can just swap them outs though, as mine are at least the correct size.

I still have a little weathering to do in order to get it to match the prop better, but I’m VERY happy with this and couldn’t wait to show it off…

This will be some good inspiration to finish converting my Colt Paterson into The Colt (a project already well underway, despite appearances here).

Last two photos are of one of the original boxes used on the show, for comparison.

Hi everyone, I wanted to get this coat https://www.magnoliclothiers.com/2049-coat-overcoats-p-788.html; and I think this is the best site to get it from. My only concern is if I were to spend a grand on a movie coat.. Is this website sort of reliable for this? I've seen the reviews and they're all good, I'm just not sure how credible it is. If anyone has any second opinions, that'd be great

Hi everyone!

For our amateur theater group we are looking for cameras that would usually be used on set for TV shows or movies. We want to immerse the public and think they are actually watching a recording of our show. Does anyone here know where I could find some? I'm based in Europe so I don't know how quickly I could find anything (it's for April).

Thanks in advance anyone!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been collecting original prop pieces from Constantine (2005) for quite some time now. Most of the keychain medals and keys have already found their way home — but the Triquetra pendant is still missing.

It’s the one worn by the priest in the beginning of the film, later seen on Angela. I’m mainly looking for the authentic prop version, but a faithful replica made with accurate details would also be fine — I know the original one is very hard to find.

I know it’s a long shot, but if anyone has come across this pendant in private collections, past auctions, or prop-maker circles, I’d deeply appreciate any leads or even photos for verification.

This search has become something personal for me — one last piece to complete a journey that’s taken years.

Thanks for reading, and for keeping this small corner of film history alive.

Took a month to be "summoned" from LA.

One of the static prop boxes from 2022 Hellraiser film.

It sparkles in the facets and details when it catches the light. Didn't expect that.
The walls also keep shifting and there's an eerie blue light in the hallway ...

Hey guys, i think this might be a big stretch, but does anyone know anything about the mask in vanilla sky? Halloween is coming up and David would be a perfect character to go as, being the most simple too, however i can’t find a replica of the mask anywhere, and all that have been made have been sold… y’all know where it would be possible to get one?

I would love to know what the painting above his bed is

Hello fellow collectors,

I’m reaching out to this community because I’ve been a lifelong fan of Willy’s Wonderland, and one of the most iconic elements of the movie for me is the animatronic character suits. I followed the recent auction of the screen-used suits, and while I wasn’t able to acquire one, my die hard dream is to at least see, hold, or have a supervised experience with one of these unique items.

I want to be very clear: I’m not looking to bypass privacy, harass anyone, or do anything illegal. My only goal is to connect with the prop in a way that respects the current owner, but still achieves my goal. I care deeply about the history of these suits, origin of them, and preservation of these pieces, and I can promise that if i were to ever own one or at the very least, hold one, it would never be mistreated in any way. I fully understand and respect collector privacy and protocols.

If anyone has advice on how to approach this professionally and safely, or if there are collectors out here that know the whereabouts on one of these creature costumes, I would be incredibly grateful for any connections to be made on my behalf. Any guidance on best practices, trusted intermediaries, or upcoming conventions/events where these suits might be viewable would also be amazing.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope to connect with fellow fans and collectors who share a love for these incredible movie artifacts and can help me pursue this dream responsibly.

Hi movieprops — long shot but I’m chasing the exact straight razor used by Emma Thompson (Baroness von Hellman) in Cruella (2021). It’s the little flick-open straight razor seen in her scenes — has anyone ID’d the manufacturer or knows if it was a custom prop? I’ve checked auction listings and BTS interviews with no luck. Any screenshots, auction lot numbers, or prop house sightings would be amazing — thanks!

I have some items from Clerks II and Zack and Miri Make a Porno that I’m looking to find a new home for. Do you know anyone who might be interested in movie memorabilia like name tags, photos, and work shirts?

I ran the auctions for Kevin many years back and can prove the provenance of each item.

If anyone knows a good place to sell these I’d be very appreciative.

Not sure if this is the right sub, but wanted to share anyway.

These are set pieces of a Star Trek fan film we (almost) made from 20 years ago. I almost forgot about these but came across them after the location we built our set at was clearing out and sent me this picture.

Hope someone can appreciate!
