Toys and Games Reviews of Twilight "New Moon" Prop Replica (Volturi Crest Necklace)
Customer Review: Bold and surprisingly well-made
Summary: 4 Stars
Twilight is very much a mixed bag for me. I have a love-hate relationship with the books. The movies hover between the "so bad they're good" genre and plain stinkers, and honestly could have used a touch of Jerry Bruckheimer to liven things up. I happen to like celebrity reproduction and movie/TV prop jewelry, most of the time regardless of the source material if it's a good piece. Usually it's something big, unique and no one else has it or would consider wearing it-- even if they COULD pull it off. This was just the sort of big, bold piece I loved, so I checked it out.
The mass-marketing and price points for the prop jewelry for New Moon led me to believe that it would be way below par (and some of it is), but this Volturi necklace is really only a step or two away from the quality of the Lord of the Rings pieces by the Noble Collection. (Why vampires who ought to be trying to blend in need an identifying logo is beyond me, but in a world where emo vampires sparkle and werewolves "imprint" on toddlers, why nitpick over understanding?) It is a heavy piece, with the stones placed exactly right, and tiny details in the pendant. I do wish both of the stones could have been blood red, instead of the oval being pinkish.
The chain is long enough for it to be wearable for most anyone, and surprisingly sturdy. The problem comes in with the clasp, which is meant to be bent in and out of shape each time you fasten the necklace. The metal is VERY soft, and without extreme diligence and care, it is sure to break within a few wearings. It's an easy fix, but was a regular lobster-claw clasp, or even a durable hook so much to ask?
The clasp can easily be fixed, but it does stop me short of giving this piece five stars. I recommend it for prop jewelry enthusiasts, Twilight fans, and for anyone who just likes to wear unique and interesting accessories every day. Just don't wear it at Fangtasia if you don't want to be laughed out of the club. :-)
