A closer look at the Dead Man's Chest

I added to the previous thread, but per request am posting some additional pics, and hence a new thread...

Some comps to a so-called original on display at Disneyland a while back...

Note the similarities...

great pics Rob!!! so, what do you think??

Check the top-down pic of what is the right end of the lid with the lock facing you. Compared to the origianl, it has the same blemishes. Pretty damn cool!

I love the prop, Rob! Fantastic buy, even at full price. One of the better if not best POTC MR props!

In the comp pics, the original seems to have richer colors. And yes - it does have a beter paint job. BUT keep in mind that the flash in my pics is washing out the colors a bit too.

What is the middle size chest in this pic?

I am still holding off at this minute. My other collections are taking priority. Plus I just started building lux sabers.

Thanks!

thats the CD player

Yup... I first saw it with a Jack Sparrow parade look-alike and was impressed enough to buy two - one to use as a CD player, and one to modify.

Glad I returned it because it really doesn't hold up to the prop afterall...

Indeed it is. Nice curves... I am talking about the lid of the chest of course.
