I got an Indy style Fedora. It's not accurate to the movies exactly (closer to the Temple of Doom style like on the right), but I like it anyway. I've got an 8' whip and leather jacket on order as well (Cosplay or display or whatever). I don't really have a display spot yet, but I might try to set something up by the bookshelf display (have a Toht hat as well and Belloq "Panama" one on order as well).

More items added to home theater room (or soon to be added once I find a place to put them; I've had to reorganize a bit to fit the Horn of Dagoth by the Conan display (had to move Hellraiser cube for one thing):
Full Sized Crystal Skull (plastic that can be lit from within) set on top of center speaker below screen (kind of creepy looking there and lights up with a remote button push):
Belloq's Hat (needs the brim adjusted and what not to match movie, but not too far off). I've hung it off the right tapestry for now. I don't know if it's stable there yet.
1930s Sparklets Seltzer Bottle (from Ravenwood Bar scene). I'll have to find a spot somewhere....
Restaurajones' more accurate looking Holy Grail replaces earlier version on the bookshelf display:
The Horn of Dagoth (from Conan The Destroyer) added to Conan display (Hellraiser cube moved to accommodate it):
Conan headband added (now on corner of left tapestry hanging next to the Atlantean sword (pictured here sitting on the Crystal Skull. CROM!)

Modified the hat to look more like Belloq's worn one in the movie:
I moved the headband, crystal skull and horn to here (skull remotely lights up):
Belloq's hat is here:
And I had to move the Hellraiser cube (it's here for now; I'm thinking about doing a 3 dome 3 cube display; I've got two cubes already and I'm thinking about that one with the music box in it where you wind it from the center piece of the circular side). Where it's at now, a light projector sitting on the floor at the base of the side speaker under the Harry Potter crystal ball/wand display that puts stars on the ceiling in the back of the room that comes on with the crystal ball, Heart of Ahriman and galaxy sphere actually paints the side in a kind of neat fashion.
And I put the seltzer bottle in the back of the room (pushed the Ark over a bit to make room for it):

Hellraiser Display updated with Chesterfield lighter from Hellraiser III, the diamond configuration of the lament cube from Hellraiser II and III and a Lament box that actually opens to the Star Configuration (Gate OPEN). The brass inlay one and diamond one have "hands" holding them that appear to come out of the fireplace the display is on. The flat panels lying around are actually drink coasters.
The Elysium one has been moved upstairs to sit on my piano on a rotating and color changing LED platform, operating in conjunction with a "plasma projector" that puts different colored "clouds" on the ceiling that move like fire. The LED platform projects the cube patterns onto the side wall and ceiling and rotates while the box changes through different colors.

Gold Dunhill Unique Sports lighter added that is very similar to the one in Tomorrow Never Dies, except for the barley pattern and it being a 1928-1930s era lighter (the one from the movie was supposedly a 1990s retro rerelease of the wick lighter right before the update to the jet lighter version came out around 2000).
Green Dunhill Rollagas added to lighter collection (not from a specific movie; a gold version was used in Kingsman, which I also have), but it's more difficult to find a green one for some reason (must have been less made). This one is from the 1970s in excellent condition with the original box and manual:

3D Printed "Tanis" map room model added on top of the rear surround speaker in front of the rear wall Raiders of the Lost Ark Poster/Ark display. It's clearly nowhere near as nice as the Sideshow diorama, but it was 1/10 the original price (which now sell for closer to $1000 and take up a lot more space). But it's setting next to my full size Staff of Ra and thus gives a miniature notion of what it's purpose is.

1930s Dunhill Rollalite Table Lighter (outside cleaned up and in good shape externally)
After a lot of cleaning it seems the dunhill plate is actually chromed as it looked like dirty copper. Grime (ash and tobacco stains?) removed from most parts (still needs new wick):
New Wick and cotton packing installed. Lighter restored to working order in excellent condition:

Given the size, I cut open one of the remote control votive candles I have to get the LED mechanism to fit under the chin. Here's the end result and it sitting on the right front wide speaker in front of the Matrix 2 Katana (hard to get a really sharp photo in the dark with a phone camera). The skull now flickers in the room with the other things lit by the remote control votive candles.
