Own The Coolest Stargate Prop You Can Actually Wear
Stargate fans should get ready to rejoice, or at the very least whip out their credit cards. It’s not too often (or ever) that an officially licensed replica of the Eye of Ra Amulet goes up for preorder, and Hollywood Collectibles has announced a faithful museum-quality version of the iconic piece.
Boasting an authentic 28″ chain and bearing inscriptions on both sides, the Eye of Ra Amulet is an artifact that die-hard Stargate fans will feel compelled to add to their collections.
First appearing in the 1994 Stargate film, the Eye of Ra Amulet has made a handful of appearances throughout the run of Stargate SG-1.
This stunning Stargate piece is part of a limited run, and is currently available for preorder. Only 750 amulets will be produced by Hollywood Collectibles, meaning it will be highly collectible after all is said and done. Other Stargate pieces made by the collectible company include a 20-inch Stargate wall mirror that’s currently available for preorder, as well as a scale replica of the Anubis statue.
First appearing in the 1994 Stargate film, the Eye of Ra Amulet has made a handful of appearances throughout the run of Stargate SG-1. The Eye of Ra Amulet is approximately five inches in diameter, and made from heavyweight cast metal. While it’s safe to assume that the artifact for sale won’t boast the power of the sun, it will certainly catch the eye of any Stargate fan.
The Stargate Eye of Ra Amulet can be yours for the price of $99.95, but can also be financed for $25 a month through the Hollywood Collectibles website. In other words, for a couple dollars a month more than Netflix’s premium subscription plan, you could own something that will remain in your possession forever.
Though the Stargate media franchise has undergone too many permutations to count over the decades, it’s clear that Stargate’s impact on the science-fiction community is unmatched.
So if you’re apprehensive about the price point, just remember that intellectual properties on streaming platforms are transient, but Ra’s power transcends time.
The Stargate media franchise has been nothing short of iconic since the Roland Emmerich science fiction adventure film was introduced to the masses in 1994. The Kurt Russell starring film quickly became a fan-favorite and a commercial success, allowing the franchise to expand across multiple mediums.
Though critics like Roger Ebert criticized Stargate for its overuse of special effects, it’s clear now that the film was way ahead of its time, and its legacy is here to stay.
Since Stargate’s initial theatrical run, two more films, three live-action series, an animated series, and a web series have been released. A healthy number of video games, tabletop games, and role playing games have been released over the years as well. Devoted fans across the world will continue to celebrate Stargate and all of its various offshoots for years to come, and they can do so in style if they are able to procure the highly-coveted Eye of Ra Amulet.
Only 750 amulets will be produced by Hollywood Collectibles, meaning it will be highly collectible after all is said and done.
Though the Stargate media franchise has undergone too many permutations to count over the decades, it’s clear that Stargate’s impact on the science-fiction community is unmatched. If you’re able to procure the amulet that Hollywood Collectibles is offering, it’ll be like you were sucked through a wormhole and transported back to 1994 when it all started.
