Sideshow Indiana Jones TOD Chalice of Kali

[Zombie Killer]

I did a search and didn't find anything on this.

I haven't been excited about anything from SS lately but this thing looks cool and gruesome and i want it. I can't be the only one. Preorder goes up this week. Yum!! :sick

 

[Funky]

Yup, going on pre-order. :thumbsup

 

[GeneralFROSTY]

Quite gruesome - but yup, gotta add it to the Indy collection!

 

[Trilogy]

Ah, the black sleep of the Kali Ma. I too have an interest in this.

 

[Clutch]

Looks a little idolized with big chicklet teeth.

 

[Zombie Killer]

I noticed that too. I think the original had a bigger tooth gap and less crispy skin also.

 

[PHArchivist]

Yeah I may need to get that.

 

[thegreatgalling]

Any guesses or rumblings about a price?

 

[KAOSINLA]

Some are saying between $199 and $300....I don't think it will be over $250. However, SSC pricing is sometimes surprising, good & bad.

 

[thegreatgalling]

^Thanks K!

 

[allosaur176]

yeah, I received the email last week for this.. Maybe this is what the "other" chalice looked like??

Looks a little idolized with big chicklet teeth.

Glad that I'm not the only one who thinks so.

 

[PHArchivist]

I would guess $250.

 

[thegreatgalling]

Hmmm. Now that you guys point it out:

Teeth look normal sized in that pic.

 

[RelicMaker]

Glad that I'm not the only one who thinks so.

I agree as well...
The face on the chalice part is inaccurate also.:unsure

Here's the chalice from the Christies auction...

 

[Zombie Killer]

Wow, now that you compare it to the original it looks like SS is staying consistent. Consistently inaccurate. It's almost like they do it on purpose, either that or they're artists really don't have a good eyes. It isn't even close. Yes it resembles it but seriously..... Now i'm glad i spent my money with EFX this week.

 

[HeroWorship]

Appreciate the pic Brenton!

 

[RelicMaker]

Yeah, I'm guilty myself sometimes of putting my own artistic impression on props to make them look just a little better than what is seen on screen, but Sideshow seems to have gone a bit overboard from what the original prop looks like.:unsure

Although, I really do think they did a great job on it! Disgustingly awesome like the original!thumbsup

....they just didn't stay true to the original prop.:thumbsdown

The teeth are easily fixable, but the face on the chalice is NOT!

 

[Onkelpsycho]

Well, if the price is not too high, I think I can ignore the inacurate face... It looks 100times better than my actual Chalice...

But cool, that someone release that prop...

 

[TazVader]

Well there are quite a few GREAT home grown chalices around. Anyone care to post some pics of their own or fan version? Be interesting to compare.

Cheers
