Hey, all!
I'd love to finally buy a sentinel sphere replica, and I've been looking into the different makers online. I was just wondering what everybody's opinions are! "Best," of course, is in the eye of the beholder; what I should really ask are people's opinions on things like accuracy, polish, weight, blade edges...
I've only been able to divine four makers, all of whom have exceptional reputations. They are:
Mike Baker of BAKERprops
Mark, aka Rayne00
Randy, aka Phanattic
-and-
Rylo of Palmetto EFX
Does anyone have any of their work? I'd be very interested to hear. Thanks!

I'm told Mike Baker really gets the job done nice, but I got this guy from Nightmares Unlimited thanks to my wonderful girlfriend. He does fantastic work!

While I don't have any custom made balls, I can personally vouch that Michael Baker and Nightmares Unlimited both make amazing spheres.

Both my brother and I purchased a sphere from Randy a few months back. It's great quality and I like that it has a weighted feel to it. I've also spoken to Michael about constructing a three fork gold sphere from P3 for me, so I do hope see personally see his work.

Recently spoke with mark/rayne00 aka nightmares unlimited. He gave me a bit more information on his work.
To the best of his knowledge, his spheres are the only ones out there that hve forks directly molded from screen used phantasm spheres.
Don coscarelli himself told him his spheres were the best replicas he's ever seen.
He's in the works with a deal on phantasm.com to sell his spheres there and he's personally endorsed by Gigi Bannister.
He takes great pride in his work and he'll give you a quality product at an unmistakably fair price. Hope this helps! This guy really knows what he's doing. You'll definitely be pleased.
Oh! AND he takes requests. That's the best part right there.
Check out his shop on Facebook. Just search for "Nightmares Unlimited"

I got a sphere from Nightmares Unlimited a few months back, and love it. It's picture perfect to screen ones, is heavy, and is just plain cool. I've got it on the fireplace mantle, next to a replica puzzle box from Hellraiser. It's a very well done sentinel sphere!
