I just got a press release about tomorrow’s DVD release of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and apparently Best Buy is offering a "gift set with replica crystal skull from Sideshow Collectibles and a $25 gift card to Sideshowcollectibles.com." Add two zeroes to that figure (and make it cash), and yeah, I could find a spot on my mantelpiece for the hideous noggin. You?

How much would I have to pay you to display this crystal skull in your home?

this is quite dope! sideshow collectibles rocks but its too expensive… sadly i aint buyint this dvd let alone the gift set
The real question is – how much would you have to pay me to even get me to buy the DVD of this bad movie?
$300 a month cash for as long as I had to display it. Gives me the willies!!
At first, I thought you said how much I’d pay for it instead of how much you’d let someone pay me. For the former, I could go as high as $20; which is a little ironic, since it costs more than the movie itself (which, past the first half hour, Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull was a borefest). But hell, I’d take it for free. Even if the movie wasn’t that great, the thing still looks pretty sleek as a decoration piece.
The skull is okay…. but that stand is horrendous!
If I’m going to have a tacky piece of movie memorabilia in my house, I’d at least like for it to be from a good movie.
The Crystal Skull isn’t even in the top 3 items I’d display on my mantle.
1. The idol from “Raiders.”
2. The fancy/faux Holy Grail from “Last Crusade”, which would set me up for multiple “I chose poorly” jokes.
3. The real/humble Holy Grail from “Last Crusade.”
*Top 3 items from Indy movies I’d display on my mantle, is what I meant to say.
I’d need to be paid at least five figures to display something that reminds me of that terrible movie in my pop culture-filled home.
it’s actually not a bad halloween decoration. if you surround it with other….halloween crap it would be a half decent little piece.
I’d rather have the crystal skull in my house than the actual movie! What a let down the ending of Indy 4 way.
How disappointing. Feels like a last ditch sales-pitch to get people to buy a DVD of a movie that was a tragic endcap to an amazing trilogy. Why not offer something from one of the prior three movies — like a replica fertility statue from Raiders — at least then people might care.
$2500 sounds good to me, Sleazak! That thing is pretty ugly, though & it would just remind me of how awful the movie was. Honestly, there are much prettier glass or plastic skulls in the world.
Whoops! I meant Slezak. Sorry!
$25,000 and an all-expenses-paid Mediterranean cruise.
I would do it for FREE …
