Wow, I did not expect to get this excited about this Ra Headpiece but I can’t help it. The Staff of Ra headpiece is easily my favorite prop out of the Indiana Jones movie series. Not only is it my favorite prop of the series, it’s comes from my favorite movie of the series, Raiders of the Lost Ark. Not to mention that this is my first non-Star Wars prop in my collection, I’m starting with an awesome one. The best part of the whole thing is that this Ra headpiece is cast from the original movie prop.
My Reaction
Unfortunately, there is nothing more to do to it, there is no build it just look pretty on the shelf as is. If you’re curious about how to get your hands on one, you need to find Relicmaker on theRPF

I’ve been looking for a 1 to 1 replica that is an exact dup from the film but everything and I mean everything is close but not there. Your comment that its a direct cast from the original is exactly what I am looking for but the link send me to a form and the maker is not listed. Do you have a direct link to the maker? I usually don’t collect props since I have built way too many over my 40 years in film and have a few pieces still but I am doing a home theater and it needs that special something, and like you the headpiece has always been a fav.
You can find it on TheRPF, the seller is RelicMaker. He does runs of these periodically, but you can message them an ask to be on the list. Link to the thread. https://www.therpf.com/forums/threads/indiana-jones-solid-bronze-imam-staff-of-ra-headpiece.349300/
