Bumped into a local guy who is trying to sell this prop, and it really has sparked my interest! This is how he described it : Possible movie prop from warner brothers studios...weird one of a kind item... 6 foot long about 3 feet high.. Golden Egyptian Sphinx with great detail made of fiberglass. Was given to us after filming of Arthur because it sustained some damage to the top of head which looks like there was an attempt to fix it? . Possibly a prop from the movie Night At The Museum and or The Mummy. I attached some pictures. Can any of the pros here help me identify this prop and help try to confirm what movie (if any) that it was used in?
What movie is this prop from? The Mummy?

I Can't place it. If its in the mummy movies than I have a few scenes that it may be in.
1. The museum when the map is found / burned
2. The treasure room that beni is stealing & gets locked in.
The mummy returns
1. The flash back sai fight with the girls.
If not, could be from nothing to everything done with that theme.
Good luck.

Is there any studio information on the bottom or any markings like MGM?
I feel like I saw one the episode of Psych where they investigate a missing mummy at a musuem or it looks like one from the Val Kilmer Ten Commandments musical

I think you will also find that figures like this are commercially available from a number of retailers as decorator items:
Having studio identification numbers would be important, IMO.

Just Google Fiberglass Sphinx and you will find numerous sizes and prices. One of those shown above was 85 inches long.
BTW, WB property have stick on bar code labels. Even the 'ancient' pieces from 80 years ago, when re-inventoried, now have them.

All film studio prop stores use barcode scanning. of one form or another on their items to track and trace all items in a production , so check the item for a code. my best guess 'Night at the Museum' filler
