In my bleariness and looking for a spare battery for my new laptop on Ebay - I stumbled upon a vast resource of props: EBAY!
Just by some random accident, I came across a Samurai sword on ebay, and from the looks of things there are loads!
I've just put in a bid for a driver's cap - prop (sort of) required for Steve's role as the henchman to Boyd in the 'Showdown 2'. Along with cap, there's a ton of relpica swords and guns - oh yeah - I could have a some real ninja fun with full on fights on DV...
...this has inspired some new ideas... :-)
