You can find a lot of cool TV show replicas if you look around, but some things just aren't for sale. Therein lies my problem. I love knowing that I can crack open a bottle of Tru Blood on Sunday nights and few things make me happier than seeing my Slayer scythe propped on its shelf. My memorabilia collection is awesome (she says humbly), but it could be better -- especially if it contained some of these props that don't exist.
8. Horatio's Sunglasses (CSI: Miami)
With CSI: Miami sadly coming to an end, I want to own the star of the show. No, I'm not talking about David Caruso. He's just a decorative device. I'm talking about Horatio's sunglasses. Those glasses have been there for every great moment of the show. So if they're taking away Horatio, I want to keep his sunglasses.
7. Nick's Trailer (Grimm)
I don't have any use for an old, rusty trailer, but I would love to have everything inside of it. From the weapons to the books to the potions, I want everything in Nick's trailer. And it would be really awesome if Monroe happened to be in the trailer when I collected it because he's an awesome guy to have around.
6. Gunn's Axe (Angel)
With all the Angel merchandise on the market, I'm shocked that nobody has replicated Gunn's homemade axe. Sure, I could attempt to turn a hubcap into an axe, but I'd really rather have one that looks like Gunn's and doesn't require me to lose limbs in the creation process. With its unique look and badass abilities, Gunn's weapon would make the perfect wall bling. Get to it, Joss!

5. Hunga Munga Blade (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
Speaking of weapons that should be replicated ... I want a hunga munga blade and I really wish the good people of Buffy would replicate one. For those who are wondering, this is the weapon Buffy used in Season 3, Episode 1 (Anne). They showed the hunga munga blade in the credits for four seasons, so I think it's about time for them to make it a tangible item.
4. Jax (Sons of Anarchy)
That's right. I don't need shiny motorcycles, big ass rings, or leather coats. I just want a few moments with Jax Teller, or at the very least, some sort of lifelike Jax replica. I'll take a twin, a clone, or Jax himself. I'm flexible like that.

3. Jar of Talbot (True Blood)
This may seem sort of creepy, but I'd really like to own a jar of Talbot. Russell Edgington may be off his rocker, but he found a way to make a pile of dead vampire look cool. With a jar of Talbot at my disposal, I could walk around looking crazy, try to sell a drop for a ton of money, and really freak kids out when they come Trick or Treating. There's no end to what I could do with a jar of Talbot, so it's time for HBO to get on board. They sell everything else from True Blood, so why not?
2. Rumplestiltskin's Knife (Once Upon a Time)
As a fan of fairy tales and weapons, I can't think of anything I would love to have more than Rumplestiltskin's knife. It's wavy, it's shiny, it's deadly, and it's engraved with Rumplestiltskin's name. What more could you want from a weapon?
1. Iron Throne (Game of Thrones)
It doesn't look comfortable and it doesn't look like it would fit in with any kind of decor, but that's all irrelevant. The Iron Throne is awesome and I would gladly redecorate my house to make it work. How cool would it be to have someone over for a business meeting or to give a kid a talking to while sitting in a throne made of swords? That's right. Now you probably want one, too.
So that covers my favorite eight TV show items that aren't for sale -- yet. Hopefully these items will start to come out because my list just keeps growing. What are some of your favorite TV show items and why do you want them?






Before there was eBay, there was Norma Jean's. That's where I got that Elvis thing that I'm the only one who owns. They used to sell clothes from all kinds of movies and tv shows and props and anything you could imagine like that. I have no idea what became of them :(
ReplyDeleteI wish Norma Jeans still existed! (Maybe it does but under a different name?) The only place I can find authentic memorabilia now is through reputable Ebay auctions. For instance, if you want to buy anything from the Saw movies, the makers sell off EVERYTHING on Ebay. I've found some good things through Ebay -- a cigarette pack from Pulp fiction, tons of autographs, and a few people who make custom items -- but certainly nothing like the things Norma Jeans used to have. I'll have to be on the lookout because I can't imagine them disappearing all together. Thanks for jogging my memory, Jen! :)
DeleteI would like the 67' Chevy Impala from Supernatural along with Dean's cassette collection as well as Elijah from Vampire Diaries. We'd have some good conversations on our long road trips. ~Beth
ReplyDeleteLOL Beth -- Those are some great ones! I didn't even think of adding some cars (and characters for road trips) to the list. I'll have to remember to add cars into my upcoming movie list. Because come on -- who doesn't want the Batmobile? lol
