I saw the Mule! It's at Universal Studios LA. I was over there last week. I also went past the hallowed ground that is stage 12 where the Serenity set was.

I include photos. Hopefully better to come when I get my analogue film developed, these are from my dig.

For the same reason they usually don't save sets: cost. Cheaper to rebuild it than to store it.

Well, you got better pictures than I did! I saw it two weeks ago when I was visiting LA. We were moving too fast to get anything decent!

Nice shooting!

You knwo, I never understood that. Lust looking at that Mule, it looks like it took a lot of man-hours to put in all the detail and everything. I could see getting rid of small, easily reproduced props. But something like the Mule?

I guess I kind of figured that the big studios all had warehouses someplace oustisde LA where they stockpiled this stuff.

Not that I'm advocating trying to take possession of the mule; it's on Universal ground, even if they aren't using it. The shuttle was apparently cast-off.

Still, makes for some interesting ideas. . .

We applied the cortical electrodes but were unable to get a neural reaction from either patient.

Aeronstorm, was the Mule close to the tour vehicle or far away? Are the metal bars in tall_n_moody's pictures from the tour vehicle or from some other prop material?

You beat me to it Cyber, I keep coming on here to find out if that guy had managed to buy the ambulance. I haven't heard anything since his last post in 2005. I do hope someone can find out if they got it and rebuilt her. Anyone with info and links, please post them. I hear they need help in a rural area of Ariel.

If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting.
