Christopher Reeve superman tribute (Superman & crystal console)
A short video of the Kryptonian crystal console that I built complete with acrylic crystals I also made, along with some real crystals provided by the mighty Hydin over on the RPF. And at the end of the video a tribute to the man who was the perfect embodiment of Superman (in my eyes and many others) a life size Christopher Reeve Superman statue created by the very talented Mr Bob Causey!!!

Hey Steven, thank you for the kind words. Yep, am a bit of a geek. Movie props and replicas is my thing, especially Superman (you might have guessed 😉😉🤣🤣)
Dude! That is beyond Badass! The 1978 Superman is my all time favorite film! With that being said, I absolutely love the Fortress of Solitude Control Panel you made. Not only does it light up with the insertion of a crystal but the base and stand you built it on is very sleek and great looking. The metallic Superman logo or the House of El Sigil adds that extra bit of flair making it a great piece for any Superman collector. I’m also very jealous of your Superman costume that’s displayed on a life size mannequin of Christopher Reeve. You definitely have an amazing collection there. But again, really nice job on the Fortress Control Panel.

I was so looking forward to man of steel, but I was so disappointed, he didn't have anyone of heart soul or emotion of the original, and of course no memorable dialogue like the first two original movies.

Years ago I was at a friend's place in midtown Manhattan who was a realtor. Whike he was taking a shower he said if the phone rings just picked it up and take a message. I answered the phone and it turns out to be Dana Reeves. She couldn't have been any more genuine and pleasant to speak to you on the phone it was such a nice experience and it was a shame she never smoked a day in her life and was dead from cancer within 6 months.

Spice, I as well bought a set of them from him (6 total). We know where to go to get these from. I already had 1 Green Mother and almost got something he has only the prototype for. I also purchased several tubes of MANY sizes, but as of yet had the time to do a project like this. I was aiming for a whole console, but have no knowledge of the wiring or electronics. I would be ok to scale down to something crisp and close like yours. But I wonder, I have a total of..7? I think, with several smaller of off design and one inch quarts, would you be willing to collaborate?

Woulf be a pretty penny to get one custom made im afraid.
