FOUND IT! The Brady tiki was a found item!

[Rylo]

I've painted up a few of these now and the way the paint lays with a wash against it really makes things look different compared to the black pull.

Hey, I could always be wrong but until someone shows me something different I'll consider my quest, complete.

Sweet! It's hard to tell from the shots but the right hand looked way smaller and the crease at the knee didn't look the same.

Great Find!

I see four lights!

Are you qouting Next Gen?? Nice!

When these come up for sale, i'm for sure in for one. Great find dude.

 

[Rylo]

It seemed appropriate. :$

Thank you, Sir.

No, that's awesome. it's just such an obscure quote, I wasn't sure. Totally makes sense in context, of course I believe that's from the sixth season episode, "Chain of Command", part II. Picards parting comments to his tormentor.


Is there a ribbon for "Biggest Geek Moment" of the day?? I think I win!

 

[Rylo]

Yes, you win!

I concur. I think you've nailed it. You settled on the same found item I did (the one on the right is a found tiki, the one on the left is an unfinished resin cast):

Here are a few additional screen caps for reference:

Well done, Rylo!

 

[Rylo]

That side screen cap is fantastic!

You can really match up the lines of the found item against it.

Thanks!

Yep. Been combing the tiki boards for a month trying to nail the little guy down!

I had no idea there were "tiki boards" out there.

Quilting boards, sure, but never thought tiki was so popular:lol


Great find!

Well... that's it then...

I'm out of business! LOL!!!

Don't feel bad, I have five or six sets of saber grips that were "as good as it gets" when I bought them.

So what if I have two tikis.

 

[Fyberdyne Labs]

What I find funny that the "found object isn't really screen accurate. The screen accurite thing would be a resin cast of the "found object". So Rylo is offering the screen accurate object. So we don't have to all look for the found object.

So, does anybody know what the "screen accurate" version was cast in?

I mean, considering it was that long ago, were they using urethanes for this type of casting? Or is the one used on-screen actually cast in white plaster or even polyester resin?

Just curious. I'm always interested in "material archaeology".

[MattMunson]

Can't wait to get mine. This is another one of those things that, since the age of five, I thought would be cool to have. not as much as a luke anh saber, but still pretty cool.

 

[Rylo]

It's resin.

It's resin.

was vincent price in this episode?

how did it end? was the tiki really bad luck or was it vincent price trying to make it seem like things were happening until those 'damn meddling kids' ruined everything a la scooby dooooo?

 

[Entropy]

It was actually three episodes. Yes, Vincent Price was in it. He wasn't the one causing the bad luck, though. The kids didn't meet him until they finally decided they needed to ditch the thing to shake the curse.

Nice casting Entropy.
