Tons of people have sold replicas over the years, both before and since the advent of 3D printing, but of course the actual thing is copyrighted, Just like the official "Led Zeppelin" logo or the images of any of their album covers. So anyone making their own copies to sell is not being strictly legal and will eventually be shut down. Of course this just means that Led Zeppelin themselves is passing up a golden merchandising opportunity here. Whatever Official Led Zeppelin Online Store there is offering genuine, authorized Led Zeppelin T-shirts, posters etc. should definitely be offering authorized Objects. They could easily be charging several hundred dollars each and still have plenty of people willing to order two to use as bookends.
Okay, I’ve always wondered myself why there is 2 Objects, the original and the 3D printed one, and why nobody tried to reproduce the perfect 1976’s one for 3D print (avoid spending 6.000€ for the original), I didn’t know Led Zeppelin actively stop the reproduction of originals objects! I am agree with your comment, people really want it and Led Zeppelin could easily start a production for market Perhaps it’s the plan for 2026! for the 50th anniversary of Presence Just hope that if they decide to sell Objects again, they wouldn’t put aside the original model for the printable model, like they use to do for the animated cover of Presence in Apple Music💀
That shine is actually completely wrong, light should just dissapear into it like it's a black hole. Painting it with a coat of Vantablack (or Black 3.0, which last I heard was the closest thing to vantablack that you could actually buy) should do the trick nicely. Also, the thing should never cast a shadow under any circumstances, but there ain't a whole lot you can do about that except I guess keep it in an area with really flat lighting.
Now all you need is a Rolling Stones doll from the "Sgt. Pepper" album cover. Place the object in the doll's lap and prop them up on your coffee table. Love your videos, TJR!
Rick on the show "Pawn Stars" got a real "Object" made by Led Zeppelin's record label. That looks interesting, but I'm sure most people would have no idea what that is from. Definitely no one in my household would know. ha! Luckily, my OCD isn't bad enough for me to order one of those. And I paid a little too much for one of those recent Taylor Swift RSD singles, but not a crazy amount.
i can just hear the argument after this: TJR: Now if i can only have something from Queen…. Super fan: NO! YOU MAY NOT HAVE A GIANT ROBOT!! I’m not gonna be responsible for it when it starts KILLING PEOPLE!!
Why did you delete the comment? Didn't like being called out for you rudeness ,disrespect and hypocrisy! Or did you realise that a your mom insult would show your lack of intelligence and how unbelievably childish you are 🤣 as he already told you in the thread you deleted, she doesn't want to be on camera you dimwit ! I'm going to assume again you didn't want me to comment, but here I am again 👋 why would he give any links when you are a horrible person and demanding like an entitled little brat 🤔 you should put an i after the d in your name and drop the matrixxx , it would be more fitting for the person you are 😘
Clearly you don't like being called out and having people reply to your rude and disrespectful comments , but as I said before, this is a public forum, so hello 👋
The cover photo was taken at a boat show at Earl's Court in London in 1975.
Thanks for the info.
When Presence came out the label sent a bunch of these objects out to radio stations as a promotion. It’s now a coveted collector’s piece.
Wow! I never know that. Would love to see one of those.
@@TJRtheOriginal Yah. I saw it on pawn stars of all places. th-cam.com/video/J4TiFEnD-Os/w-d-xo.html
I have one its a nice conversation piece, always people question it, i just tell them "Its the object" which makes them more confused.
😂 I would have spray painted a twisted candlestick and called it a day.😂
LOL

Great point. I was not aware of anyone making copies of the object prior to this. Thanks for the heads up.

I believe one of these turned up on Pawn Stars several years ago. I don't recall what the story behind it was.
Your Best Video Ever!

That's it. I'm getting one for my music shrine. Thanks TJ!

Great idea!! Thanks.
Here's a link to the "Pawn Stars" segment about "The Object":

TJR Doctor Doom is the ruler of Latveria. Latvia is one of the Baltic Nations along with Estonia and Lithuania, located northeast of Poland
Yes LOL.
I have a plaster one I've had for 30 plus years love the thing! sorry the object
There's one on Amazon that doesn't look nearly as good as yours. Where can I find this? Achille's is my favorite song ever.
Etsy. I did post the sellers name in the video.
@@TJRtheOriginal Oh, ok, sorry. I bought one on Ebay from a guy in Minnesota who says he's the original maker. I got it and it looks good.

I bought a replica myself! It is AWESOME!!! I love it!
Very cool!
