Here’s a funky collectible prop: one of the arrows Inara used with her bow – the one you never saw because it was CG’ed into some kind of bowcaster thing.
This arrow is made out of a light wood, hasblack feather fletching and rubber tipped pointes which are painted silver. The bow and arrows were used by Inara in the end scenes when the group face the Reavers, but during post-production, the weapon was replaced by a gun with the use of CGI. The arrow measure 78cm (30.5”) long.
I JUST BOUGHT THIS!!!!!! *happy dance*
Actually if you watch the movie closely, they only cgi’d the “boltcaster” in on the closeup scenes. In scenes where she is in the background (such as when Jayne is shooting) you can see her clearly(ish?) holding the bow and arrow.
