| Last
week, StarWars.com
published a report of Master
Replicas presentation during
Comic-Con 2005. Stephen
Dymszo, Master
Replicas Vice President of
Product Design, showed up at
Comic-Con in San Diego to
share news about new Star
Wars prop replicas in both
the design and production stages.
Although it does not get mentioned
in StarWars.com's
article, we can clearly see the Headpiece
to the Staff of Ra replica (from Raiders
of the Lost Ark) in a speak
peek picture for 2006. This lead to
the rumor that Master Replicas
is producing an Indiana Jones prop
collection.
This
was very exciting news, until I found
out that Master Replicas
does not hold an Indiana Jones license
at this moment. Something they need
if they want to sell Indy prop replicas.
Hoping to get more information, I
contacted both Master Replicas
and Lucasfilm. Master
Replicas answered that they
had no information on Indiana Jones.
And Lucasfilm has
let me know that they have no licensees
in the area of Indiana Jones collectibles.
But
don't give up hope! This could also
mean that they are working on an Indiana
Jones replica collection but that
it's too soon to share info about
it yet.
