[Closed] Aslan

I love Narnia, I love everything about it. I now have a few collectibles which is my Master Replicas Peter's Sword, Girls on Aslan statue & my Narnia Pocket Watch, Dawn Treader model ship (unofficial) and a signed picture of Ben Barnes. I am still trying to find the Noble Collection Susan's Horn which is proving more difficult than anything. Anyhow I was watching The Antiques Roadshow the other day & some guy brought a life size Aslan in. It was beautiful. He rescued it from a skip years ago, & it is the proper original prop that was made for the series The Lion, the witch & the wardrobe. Lucky guy! He isn't selling it he is emigrating to Australia & taking it with him. I would love An official life sized limited edition collection to be done. I really want one : ). If anybody is ever selling their Narnia collection please let me know. Still trying to add more to my little collection.

Where's the fun in buying someone else's collection? That's cheating! ;)

I know but I don't care about cheating as long as I build up my collection : )

Griffle, sometimes a collection is for sale but not necessarily as a whole - or a dealer might buy it and resell individual pieces separately.
Fascinating about the lifesize Aslan - did it seem to be a large model or the costume one that two people stood in?

There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.

It's so interesting how that man on Antiques Roadshow had an Aslan prop from the set! I wish there was a picture of it or a clip of the video so we could see which one it was. Could you perhaps describe it?

Too bad that you can't find the Susan's Horn collection piece because it's beautiful. I was lucky to buy if from the Noble website when it first came out and it said that there was only a limited amount of them made, so they're probably gone now, unless you find a willing seller. I think there was another thread on here that discussed that item specifically and almost everyone had difficulty finding it for sale anywhere.

You should also look regularly on Ebay and Amazon, because sometimes collection pieces pop up on there. It may be tedious work going through all those pages, but you can occasionally come across exciting props or movie memorabilia for your collection that way.

Good luck with your collection...I hope you find some more items to add to it! :)

Susan's Horn is still avaible on the french Noble Collection site . Ordered it yesterday along with some Lord Of The Ring Letter Openers.
If you live in Western Europe, you should give it a go.
