i went to Dimond web site and found this (http://www.diamondselecttoys.com/)
Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer has grown beyond mere “cult” status over the years, with a rabid and devoted fan base supporting every step along the way. Fans of the series will be pleased to know that Diamond Select Toys has entered into a licensing agreement with 20th Century Fox to deliver more Buffy and Angel collectibles than ever before!
As part of this new expansion, DST is excited to announce the production of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel prop replicas! Like Buffy herself, several previously announced prop replicas will return from the grave and see new life as Diamond Select Toys releases – beginning with the Urn of Osiris!
Possessing the power to revive those killed by mystical forces, the Urn of Osiris is a rare and powerful artifact. Long considered the only safe method of true resurrection, the Urn of Osiris is a fitting choice for the inaugural piece in this Diamond Select Toys line of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel prop replicas. Each replica is planned to include a museum-quality acrylic display case and gallery-style title plaque, though the final details will be made available as the fall 2006 release date approaches
it looks good but i wonder if they are goin charge more now?

Neat! Definitely something that should been done earlier. Edit: Now that's a decent display!

I love this and it's awesome that they are making a case for each one. It avoids them from getting dusty if one has no cabinet to display them in.

Will this display make the price go up? I know most will like the display, but I don't. I prefer for my prop replicas to sit on my shelf as if they are the real one. I'm sure Willow didn't keep the urn in a display case (although maybe if she did, the bikers wouldn't have broken it).

I wonder how big is that display glass? I'm looking for something like this to display my Charmed figure (attic display) on a cool little shelf near my window but afraid the dust would ruin my figures.

I don't collect props, but this does sound like a much better deal, the props will look stunning in those cases...It almost makes me want to start collecting!

If I were to buy this, I think I'd have to get it from eBay, in the true spirit of the show.

This absolutely wonderful news! I'm so glad that these beautiful props aren't going to waste. That Urn of Osiris was stunning, but now it's even more incredible in it's display case. I actually think Diamond are going to really out do themselves on this line. Let's hope they ressurect the Palz too

I have decided that I am definately going to get the Urn of Osiris in display case. It will be my very first prop replica. Does anyone know where I can actually get a limited edition BackStreet Boys Lunchbox to display next to it?

I just wonder if they will have a collectors case for every prop that they release. I mean with Anyanka's Amulet, the Gem of Amara and Spike's Amulet, that will look a little off.

I'm Happy that they have brought these back, since i wasn't to sure about the "Factory X" line. I just hope that they stay quite low in price so people like me can buy them Maybe just a smaller case

I just hope that they stay quite low in price so people like me can buy them Maybe just a smaller case I would hope that the jewelry would continue to come in boxes like the Slayer's Cross did. Obviously that case was episode specific, but jewelry boxes make sense for jewelry. Of course if you need episode specific cases, the Gem of Amara could come in a pile of rocks and dirt and Spike's Amulet could just come in a manila envelope
