Equipment: Savage Crucible Frazetta’s Warrior with Ball & Chain From Harvinger Studios

Posted on 2025/07/22 by James

According to Harvinger Studios, wave one of the Savage Crucible figures was a resounding success. This is not surprising once you see the quality and craftsmanship that went into each design and sculpt. We were fortunate to be able to review two figures from wave one, Veteris Repax and the Shield of D’Zaera. I was highly impressed with both of these lizard warriors and had been waiting to see what was new. The wait is over.

The first figure in Wave 2 of Savage Crucible starts with a bang. Made in partnership with the Frazetta Art Museum this first figure is, Frazetta’s Warrior with Ball & Chain. This figure looks amazing and will be the best-looking barbarian in your collection (sorry Conan). This sculpt is beautiful and really does justice to the original piece of art.

Equipment: Star Trek Tridimensional Chess Set Prop Replica from The Noble Collection

Posted on 2025/07/16 by James

The Noble Collection has been around since 1991; this means they have been making top of the line prop replicas for 34 years. Known for producing products from multiple franchises such as Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, DC properties, Harry Potter and Star Trek; from the smallest bookmark to the largest wand, everything they produce is quality. I own quite a few of their products and I have always been impressed.

Speaking of being impressed, the first time I saw the Noble Collection’s Star Trek Tridimensional Chess Set it was love at first sight. This 1:1 scale prop replica is amazing. Making its first appearance in the Star Trek Original Series episode Charlie X, the 3-D chess set is one of the most recognizable props from Star Trek behind only the phaser and communicator. The Star Trek 3-Dimensional Chess Set from The Noble Collection is so accurate that it was used (with slight modifications) in an episode of Star Trek Strange New Worlds.
