I know entries have been scarce for a long while now. Many other obligations have me tied up on a daily basis, and it's very hard to find time to write. Xena props news are not very usual as of late either. If to that we add that having this website updated is a very demanding yet at times quite unrewarding task, I think you may understand a bit how I feel.
However, instead of saying my goodbyes, I have a proposition for all of you. A friend and reader, Epiphane David, has suggested that I turn Xena Prop Treasures into an open platform. Meaning: any of you with something to say about the Xena prop world (curiosities, information, comparisons, photos of your collections...) can send me an e-mail and I will publish your stuff from here. With proper credit, of course.
I do believe this can be a good idea, because:
- The platform stays alive.
- The information keeps flowing.
- All of us can share our piece of knowledge and satiate the "thirst" of each other (if that makes sense to you lol).
I can compromise to work as "filter" and add any relevant data I may know to your contributions.
I look forward to hearing your thoughts about this!
Battle on,
Vicente aka Secret Kabeiros
Hi! I was hoping before you left if you could please let me know if this chakram i bought on ebay looks to be an official licsened Xena product or a rip off? Thanks! https://www.ebay.com/itm/262551272213

Hello Jay! Yes, of course. That chakram was made by the seller, RomansEmpire. Heals makes other Xena replicas, like Xena's original chakram or Gabrielle's sais. His replicas are neither official nor licensed, but his own creations. In the specific case of his Y&Y chakram replica, his version is based in the better known Todd's Costumes replica. Hope this helps!
DeleteI really appreciate the work and effort that you have put into this site for us all. I still check it regularly hoping to see another treasure that I wish I could afford!
ReplyDeleteIt would be great to keep the site alive please.
Keep going and all the best to you in your ventures :)

Kerry. Thank you, that means a lot. I do have some new treasures I haven't talked about, but I'm hoping I'll eventually find the time to take some pictures and post them here :) Again, thank you! Vicente
DeleteI recently posted up a blog early this morning but it's gone it was about an original Prop from Xena warrior princess i had been wanting to sell my comment was pretty long but nevermind I've lost interest now
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that. If something changes, here we are! :)
DeleteHey mate would you know any potential buyers wanting the prop it's an original cow boy hat from Xena which was worn by a gang member in the series still name tag inside its unique I can post a pic but how??
ReplyDeleteHello! I don't think you can post images in the comments, so please send me an e-mail with the info and photos in order to see if someone might be interested. My e-mail is secretkabeiros AT gmail DOT com
DeleteI hope this stays alive. I don't know much about props (except that I appreciate them) so I can't contribute but maybe you'll have more things to write about once the reboot starts so it will bring some news! Thank you for all the work you've done on this site, it's greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lara, I appreciate the comment :) I hope that too! The news about the reboot are quite scarce, but let's hope it goes somewhere and that brings back new life to the site. Best!
DeleteHello, I am a New Zealand costume designer. I've recently bought a container of Xena, hercules, young hercules costumes :)

DeleteOh wow, i would LOVE to see any Xena related costumes!!
ReplyDeleteDo you think you’ll be keeping them all?

Hi Enri. Thanks for writing. Nowadays, there's no specific place I could point you to. eBay is probably your best option --though it will require some patience. Best!
