hi there,

The small AllSpark Shard props used in TF ROTF were made in two sizes. One is the less detailed actual size (1:1) version. The other is a much more detailed but three times bigger size version (3:1) used in the close-up shots.

This EXTREMELY DETAILED & MOVIE PROP ACCURATE AllSpark Shard replica is in the 1:1 scale but with the 3:1 scale detail! Made of SOLID PEWTER METAL and the carvings and crevices are chemically discolored to achieve the characteristic "weathered" finish.

Though this is not "mainstream" item for customization, I had a great time making it. I hope you like it too. :wink:

This is really great. I mean really really great. Take that Paramount with your movie prop auction. We can make our own movie props, Muahahahahaha!

But seriously really great job. How long did it take you to make?

Hey thanks,

its actually the second version already. the model of the first one i made a month before tf2 show date. purely based on the final trailer. then came comic con with the actual props displayed. so i melted my first piece and "transformed" it to the one i posted above. so thats around 3 mos until im satisfied with it.

Haha "transformed" :lol:

Is it possible to do the Matrix from ROTF? That would be awesome.

by the way, the original shard prop (along with others) are being auctioned at profilesinhistory.com

As I was reading this at first I was going "ok, doesn't look like anything special, probably made out of foam and shaved down then coated with.....made of metal?"

I really like this, I think this is great!

If you made it out of anything but metal it would have lost the effect I think.

It looks really accurate, good job!

I too would carry this in my pocket, until it eventually rubbed a hole in it and fell
out the bottom. :twisted:
