hi all.
i have just purchased one of these but the brown and patterned handles/carriers are missing.any idea how i can get a pair?
thanks.
The promo word for the 10/27/10 Vlad the Impaler contest is: BLOODRED
This will look awesome on my Indiana Jones pinball machine…
Just got an eyeful @ Comic-Con — it’s BEAUTIFUL! All that is missing is Belloq in his HP get-up to complete the tableau. Any plans?
So How large is this in Ft’ and In”s.
this would make a great urn when i go back to the dust i came from…….
Can you re-design this for me if I tell you exactly the way the ark should look like???
Woohoo
Looks pretty good! Now all we need is a Staff of Ra Headpiece, Holy Grail and Crystal Skull replica! Mainly the last 2, though.
It’s 1/4 scale. That’s what they announced previously (way back when the Idol was announced. I think it was over a year ago.) Can’t wait! I think it’s looking great! And I’m really hoping for/looking forward to a Staff of Ra Headpiece! And a Grail!
Well if it’s a 1:1 then I hope it can be used as a winefridge or Blu-Ray rack… perfect for the 10 Commandements and some other biblical movies. Easy to sell to me but without any practical use would be hard to sell to my wife
…nice…and about time!
DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW MUCH THIS COSTS?
Where’s the apple?? We finally need it for scale!!
I think it’s gonna be 2:1. Yeah, that’s right . . . they’re gonna make it twice as big as the film prop!
1:1 ark of covenant is very possible to make as a snap together prop replica (Ikea princip) the box would be smaller than the Predailien bust for sure
1:4 thats fine to go whit the PF but a true prop replica is 1:1…
Sideshow to made the finish on the ferility idol no need to make this mat gold
I cannot see them doing 1:4 without a figure. If it is 1:1, then “The Ark of the Covenant was an ark or chest of shittim (acacia) wood two and one-half cubits long, and one and one-half cubits high (5 feet by 3 by 3) overlaid with gold, and embellished with a crown of gold extending around the chest upon the top edge. Four rings of pure gold were set in the four corners, two on one side and two on the other, through which were passed the wooden staves overlaid with gold used in carrying the sacred chest.” (Exodus 25: 10; 37: 1-10). Nice but tooo heavy and bulky to ship. I think 1:2 is more doable.
It’s a beautiful piece but I agree with everyone here that it should be shinier than what we’re seeing in this picture and should definitely be shinier than the 1:6 version from Sideshow. Can’t wait to see more pictures!
While I don’t mind the Sideshow 1/6th Ark (it isn’t neary as bad as people say) I do hope this one is shinier than that one. If the other company can make a shiny ark in 1/6 than Sideshow should be able to make an even better one in 1/4.
Make it shine like the idol please!
Finaly! This will go great to my Raiders Indy PF. Now please bring on Belloq
It may or may not be shinier than the one that comes with Toht, but it does not look shiny enough to be vac-metallized like the one from that “other source.” This doesn’t look as shiny as the one in the movie either. The movie one looks “almost” vac-metallized but it certainly could have just been enhanced with lighting or other effects. This doesn’t look as shiny as Sideshow’s idol prop replica either.
This would be great as a 1:1 scale, although it looks small in the picture. PF 1:4 format maybe?
I hope it’s 1:1.
.
BTW, Short Round, you can get “chromed” effect spray paint in various colors, including gold, right at WalMart, etc.
With some careful masking, or using a brush on version from Home Depot, you can make your Toht Ark nice and shiny gold.
I think a lot of folks just opted for the already shiny mail-away version in 1:6 from a different resource.
Magnifica replica, aunque como muchos de los compañeros de aquí (en su mayoria no Españoles) se agradecería a Sideshow que hiciera una producción a escla 1:1. Sabemos que el coste es elevado, pero si no se exagera mucho, merecerá la pena ahorra unos cuantos Dolares/Euros más y comprarla a escala real.
Saludos desde España!
Regards from Barcelona!
1:1 now I have storage for my whining wife… lol..
I just have one question……..Does this piece come with the vengeful spirits that melt your face off? I can do without that – but a pulsating light and some of that toy choo, choo train smoke would be wickedly cool!!
yes, it is 1/4 scale.
I believe, this is the 1/4 scale that will go well with Indy Premium Format Figure. Cheers SS
It’s Beautiful!!!! Sound of head exploding.
“PROP REPLICA”??!!??!! Does this mean it is full scale???
Oh god in heaven PLEASE let this be TRUE! Although, I have a feeling they mean it to be 1:4 PF scale, they say “Prop Replica” and not “Premium Format”!!!!!!!! PLEASE SSC!! Make this 1:1 AND 1:4….Or I’ll MELT YOUR FACES OFF!!!!
We ARE talkin’ 1/4 scale, here, right?
Is this 1:1 or 1:4 scale? Why couldn’t they have gold plated the 1:6 Ark that came with Toht?
