Stargate Props Going Up For Auction 131
will_die writes "After all the recent auctions for Propworx's Battlestar Galactica props, they are now selling off 15 years of Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis props. Over the next couple of months minor items will be sold on eBay, and the major items will be sold in two live auctions. eBay auctions will consist of smaller props, most costumes, drawings and even parts of Stargates. The live auctions will contain items such as the Thor puppet, The Ark of Truth, and the only fully working Stargate. (Multiple Stargates needed for travel)." My wife will be bidding on Daniel Jackson. I wouldn't mind a Zat gun, but at $3K–$4K, it's a bit rich for my blood... although if the neighbor's dog keeps getting out of his electric fence I might have no choice...

Then what is a Naquadah generator? [wikia.com] Naquadria [wikia.com] is a far less stable, more powerful isotope of Naquadah that SGC used to produce the first hyperspace capable Goa'uld/Tau'ri hybrid fighter aircraft.

Okay. I work as a set producer in vancouver. I don't work on stargate, but some of my friends do. Basically, their job is to turn stuff sold in junk and scrap stores into cool looking alien props. Their work on the last season of SGA was scaled back from normal. A couple months ago, Waring told them why. The next stargate spinoff will be an animated cartoon retelling of the first three seasons of SG-1. I'm guessing the props are being sold off as unnecessary. It sounds stupid, but you'd be amazed at the insurance premiums for storing custom props, especially ones that light up and have the potential to self-ignite. I don't know much else except Tapping, Judge, Shanks, and Anderson will not be involved in the spin-off.
