It is important to remember that most people cannot tell the difference between a replica and a real item. As responsible owners the liability rests with us in relation to responsible ownership, display and carriage of replicas.
Private ownership laws in every State are different. Legislation also changes frequently. The table to the left details current requirements for owning 1:1 (exact) replica's and does not include half-cast or sectioned items in frames which are fine. These are cast in the same side so that they cannot be joined together.
Moulds are hand made using de-activated originals so you are getting a perfect copy for your display.
They are then poured using high-quality polyurethane resin, sanded and prepared for painting.
Result is a safe, legal and realistic display piece. I use off-the-shelf frames to reduce the cost to the customer so these may vary from time to time depending on availability.
