Where are those from? I've seen a few on Ebay sell for alot.
I'd love to have a sphere but I'm kinda reluctant to dish out a ton of cash for one.

The sphere at the top was from www.reelcollectibles.com. They have some other cool reproducions as well. A Duke Atredes signet ring for $115 and tracer bracelet from Escape from New York. Oh if I only had cash to burn!

That website makes me sick. I hate seeing people sell unauthorized merchandise and reap a wild profit from phans. Please, all of you, don't buy anything from that website. I imagine most of the other items are unauthorized too. I've no quarrel with workprints and home-made spheres being made and sold; but when you take advantage of phans - that's something else. If anyone wants a sphere, buy the R2 DVD set for under $30 on Amazon.co.uk and support out filmmakers.

I actually found a site one time or maybe someone linked me to it where you can make your own spheres really cheap.
Using christmas balls and some other stuff you can find cheap in a hobby store.

$110 is a bit pricy for me. That's something that someone could make themselves given time & dedication.
Still pretty cool stuff though.

Sorry if upset anyone about this, I didn't think about authourised versions. I did see the make you own from a xmas bauble one though, very inventive. I've often wondered what actual props from various films like Phantasm or Dune would be worth these days. A shed load I would imagine.

I thought they looked pretty cool too....until I read Dustin's post on this. To be a true Phan is cool....to take advantage of this is not!

It makes me wonder if a lot of those props even still exist, like the Tall Man's severed fingers.

If anyone wants a sphere, buy the R2 DVD set for under $30 on Amazon.co.uk and support out filmmakers. I WOULD, but seeing as I live in Region 1, and I do not have an all region player, that would be a foolish thing for me to spend money on just to have a nifty ball set (See the wordplay there? Brilliant.) and miss out on the movies. I do have the recently re-released Phantasm Special Edition on DVD, though.

If they would just release P2 on R1 DVD I wouldn't be in great shape!
I might try my hand at making my own balls ;D sometime this fall.
