“It’s just an object. It doesn’t mean what you think.”
-River, ‘Objects in Space’
Whatever happened to all the props and costumes used in the original TV show and the Big Damn Movie? Well, a lot of them ended up here on the East Coast, with some in the hands of New England Browncoats. Come see our Museum of artifacts from ‘Earths-To-Be’ as we to share a collection of screen-used, cast-from-used and replica props with us at the Browncoat Ball!
Here are just a couple of the items you’ll see:
Zoe’s stunt Mare’s leg:
The is the ‘pistol’ you see Gina Torres as Zoe carry in nearly any scene where she isn’t shooting someone. Much lighter to wear than a real hog’s leg, this production-made pistol allowed our Zoe to move unimpeded about the ship.
Helmets like this one were the B grade, or ‘background’ helmets for the Mobile Infantry from the movie “Starship Troopers.” Over 30 of the Bs found their way to Fox, and after having been given a shiny purple paint job were re-purposed for the foot soldiers of the Anglo-Sino Alliance. You can see them in such episodes as Serenity, Bushwacked, The Train Job, and Safe.
