Restoration Contemplation

David and Ryan are joined by Tom Spina of Tom Spina Designs to discuss all things restoration. When should one restore a prop or costume piece? How much is too much? The guys tell their own restoration stories, like when Ryan rescued John McClane's Beretta from DIE HARD from the world of science-fiction and when Dave brought Chewbacca back to life. But Tom beats them all by telling his story of restoring the original AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON even after Rick Baker himself said that it was beyond help and should be thrown out, all while trying not to talk about the STAR WARS cantina.
