This has been on the shelf for a while, but with Season 3 not too far off, thought I'd temporarily come out of my "prop break" and check the interest level.
I have access to the full front face pattern of the main screen used Beskar ingot seen in Season 1. Along with the direct screen-transfer of the Imperial stamp (which I have yet to see anyone else do) and the 'billowing' surface, I believe it's possible to make the most screen accurate ingot to date and improve on my first effort. As with the run I did early-on, these would be hand-cast aluminum, made by a small local foundry, then hand-finished by me.
INFO (PLEASE READ):
Sign up below but note that SIGNING UP IS BINDING.
Once all ten are claimed, a deposit of $100 per ingot will be collected and the foundry can begin casting while I prep the pattern-transfer and other materials. Once I have all castings in-hand, I'll get to work finishing them. (Note that since I don't run a shop or business, all this is done in my limited spare time, so it may take 2-3 months to finish.) When all copies are done, the remaining balance will be collected, and they will ship.
As part of signing up, I would kindly suggest that you not share any clear full/flat photos of the final ingot on social media or we'll have eBay scalpers making copies in no-time. (Naturally, this can't be enforced, but it would be of interest to everyone on the list to protect their investment!)
I also kindly ask that you please not sign up and then do a 'disappearing act', as I simply don't have the time nor energy to chase folks!
Here's a video of the first version I did:

INFO (PLEASE READ):
- The run will be limited to TEN pieces. (A couple extra will be cast in reserve to guard against mishaps.)
- I'll design and 3d Print a simple stand for each. (I might also number them.)
- Cost will be $300, shipped per ingot. (You may claim more than one.)
