I'll be asking for deposits for the next run in the next couple of weeks and start production. It usually takes about 3 months from start to finish...I know you’re busy getting this current run out the door, but what’s the timeline looking like for the next run? Just trying to plan a few projects.
Very excited for this! Been wanting to get on one of these since your very first run.
Can’t wait for mine! Kukulcan, those look like Restaurajones stones and possibly grail. Where did you get your grail stand from? Could you PM me the details???Just arrived.
Absolutely perfectly happy with it, glad I ordered the shiny one, can still make it more dull once I feel like it.

I'd be curious to know on the grail stand as well.Can’t wait for mine! Kukulcan, those look like Restaurajones stones and possibly grail. Where did you get your grail stand from? Could you PM me the details???
There were a couple of people saying this a couple of pages back and RM admits to it being a bit top-heavy. No one suggested another way to display except the obvious: make sure it’s on a flat surface and away from any ledges / high-traffic areas prone to getting bumpedIt's amazing! Got mine all at my desk with all my other prop replicas.
Question, did notice that the idol is front heavy - which comes with the design itself.
Has anyone figured out how to combat this?
I don't have one yet, and it's good to know now that this is an issue, but it seems like some poster putty underneath might be the simplest solution.There were a couple of people saying this a couple of pages back and RM admits to it being a bit top-heavy.

Could always angle it in a corner or wedge it into a tight space for use as a bookend to something else if you’re afraid of it tipping. I don’t remember the kind of metal RM used, but a rare-earth magnetic base of some kind might pull it down more. If not magnetic metal and you’re feeling crazy adventurous, you could glue or otherwise insert magnets into the base to do the same if it allows. Only other alternative I can think of would be to wedge some aged, folded paper beneath it (so it looks like it belongs, depending on how you’re displaying) to sort of tip it back, but that might create a totally different balance issue and isn’t exactly a great fix, unless you’re desperate . . .
I used double sided tape to put a a small piece of 10 oz leather on the front. It's enough to get it balanced.It's amazing! Got mine all at my desk with all my other prop replicas.
