Crystal Skull Indy 4

[henry]

Hey all,

I am a newbie here, but life long Jones fan/ collector. I was wondering has anyone here seen, or have photos of the main prop for Indy 4?

Welcome Henry...is it Sr. or Jr. ?

I wish I knew what the Crystall Skull looks like in Indy IV.

From what I've seen on the background of the teaser poster, the skukll doesn't look human ! If you see how the teeth are close to the eye sockets and practically no nose visible...it looks like an Alien's skull ! From my point of view of course.

Well I am still a young guy, so I choose Jr.....LOL! I agree they look like an alien. From what I have been told by some firends who work at Paramount, they say its an alien style head too. However they are bound by contract to not dicuss the film, or the project with specifics.

Welcome ~

Firstly ~ Welcome (henry) to the lounge
(wow , my first greet/welcome to a new person)


The skull ~

I think (IMO) that the skull would be somewhat similar to the ones that have been unearth/found thus far and are in private collection and museum.

I would say the movie "background historians" (those) who do the research on such things, would model it after those, for those skulls do indeed look "alien".

I would also say that the look of the supposed skull will be changed for various reasons; aesthetics, size, and originality.

But, I will not venture further on speculation (until) I have seen the movie, for I am sure that there will be an explosion of Crystal Skull imitations soon


That my *whip* crack ~

Thanks for reading and

RESPECTS!

Thanks for the welcome. I have seen a few of the true skulls in person, and some certinaly look odd, but I think that this skull for the film is really like the typical alien head. I am not sure, but the poster sure looks like it, and friends I have in the production specificly said "alien,"

Your right though, things could be far different than expected.

there was a picture of the screen used skull on a website that was linked to on the RPF forums but the studio requested it be removed. Its very alien to look at and matches the one on the poster. Not much human looking about it

Man that looks wild. How did you do the rendering/ base the rendering on?

That's THE prop, not a render.
The Japanese room light seen here indylounge.proboards105.com/index.cgi?board=props&action=display&thread=2446 is actually the only merchandise I've seen so far that looks exactly like the real prop.
