Does anyone own one of these resin relicas?

: This one is up on ebay UK at the moment and I might consider it if it's any good?

Is it available from the UK or to the UK? Because that looks like a Paul Roberts Raiders gun(I think he lives in Florida). Some BOTB members might know him better as Artsee1. He makes great stuff and gets praise from everyone. I haven't heard someone say one bad thing about him....but I also never owned any of his merchandise.

Hi Mr. Das, yeah I think that's the same guy so it must be available TO the uk. Thanks for the advice, sounds good

Does anyone have his contact info? I may try to get one of these replicas.

With ob1al's blessing(lucky guy just procured a fine pair of Alden's!), I have entered a bid on this replica! It will be nice to have one to put in my holster for 'Cons and summits!

Here's Paul's website.
http://www.artsee1.com/

There's contact info there too if you're interested in other props. As for his Raiders gun, you can get it through him directly, although he frequently puts it up on eBay, so you may want to stick around eBay a bit.

This shot from his website has quite a few familiar faces...

That looks like the QM. Am I right?

I actually have that gun from an ebay auction. Overall, I was very happy with it. The lanyard came broken on mine, so you may want to request that he package it well for shipping. I super glued it back on with little difficulty. I also painted mine. Best of luck with the auction.

Thanks, Arkansas! I may very well replace the lanyard ring/swivel with a real one, should I win this auction.

Good luck with that auction RonC

Yeah, I broke my Indy-bank for a pair of aldens (from another member)

In the toss up between the shoes or the shooter, the boots walked it and I had to fire the gun idea.......

Sorry, poor puns for such a fine forum......

Say, who is the Dr. Henry Jones senior in the middle of the group photograph? That's one grooooovy outfit man!

Regards to all,

That photo is from DragonCon in Atlanta a few weeks ago. The gal 3rd from the right is my eldest daughter, who writes here as 'D. Jones'. Regards. Michaelson

Hi Michaelson

Cool - I never knew that! Hey, good style runs in the family!

But I meant the guy right in the middle of the photo in the Henry Jones snr. outfit:D It's nice to see a sean in among all those harrisons!!

Alan

Thanks for the kind remark! I asked her the same question regarding that fellow, but apparently he doesn't frequent the site, and she didn't catch his name. Maybe ITG knows. She's in the picture as well. Regards. Michaelson

Well, it seems we have a 'mystery Dr. Jones'! :!:

The plot thickens.........

Regards,

Alan

PS - Now, if only I could get MY eldest daughter into Indygear, it would give me a great excuse to keep buying it

Sure, she's only 5, but she could grow into a Wested.......

Well, both mine were raised in the 'hobby' since they were born, so it was something they've been around literally their entire lives. May be good....the one pictured is completing her degree in archaelolgy this Spring at UT. Regards. Michaelson

Wow!

Hey, that's great Michaelson.

So Indy is an inspiration in more ways than one!

We have 2 girls (and a third baby on the way) and they both love the Indy movies and computer games - although I have to slighly 'edit' some of the scarier parts with the remote control.....

The day I got my first Wested out of the packaging my youngest looked up and said :

"Ooooooh!", (big eyes

) "Pretty!",

They like nothing better than to run around the yard with my MKVII (dolls inside), so I guess we have a couple of future 'gearheads' in the making!

High regards,

Alan

It's a friend of indianakenobi, the guy between Dr. Henry Jones and D. Jones (Michaelson's daughter). He doesn't post here and I can't remember his real name for sure, but I think it's Nate or Nathan.

The guy between myself and Dr. Henry Jones is our own Indiana Josh, who I haven't seen around these parts in awhile. The guy behind Indiana Elvis is our own Dakota Ellison, but you can only see part of him.

Thanks Indiana Texas-girl

Mystery solved!

I wonder if he posts on the Indyseniorgear forum?.........

Nice hat.
