Argo Time Machine Key - Time After Time film
Description
This is a model of the Rotation Reversal Lock key to the time machine Argo that HG Wells piloted from 1893 London to 1979 San Francisco in the film Time After Time. I've always loved this movie (I am fascinated by time travel really) and the key was just one of those props that always kind of summed up the time machine in that movie to me. It's not a crucial prop piece and not as well known as something like the TARDIS key, certainly. It even doesn't make a lot of sense in terms of the story, but I still like it. After pouring through the movie, getting some high res stills and really trying to copy it as best I could, I finally came up with this. Is it screen accurate 100%? Who knows, but I think it looks pretty close considering it doesn't get a lot of screen time or any super quality close ups. Its a simple print (only taking about an hour for all three pieces) and I did use supports for the bit. With a small bit of sanding and then gluing it together I was already pretty happy. Finish it off with a nice red paint and I am all set to go traveling. I hope everyone likes this design of a movie prop that no one probably either wants or will make themselves. But, if you do, I'd love to see yours! UPDATE 12/21: I created a simple display stand for the key. Oh, and before I forget... if you like this model and feel like buying me a cup of coffee, I won't say no. Just hit the tip designer button and I'll raise my coffee cup to you!!!
