LadyBarbossa Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 I know a few out there have posted getting them... But.. I'd figured making this more.. "Official" I'M LOVING IT! A pirate friend of mine got it for me... & it's just fabulous! Alas, the Master Replicas site if down for the moment... but.. it's available in various places... I have yet to find it around here. I wear it all the time. At first .. no recognition.. but.. nearly every day.. someone recognizes it... "It's the Aztec gold!" .. "It's the gold from Pirates!" Kids love it more so... they want one! I hope it's put out in more places locally... cause otherwise.. people will not know it's available.. & no one will buy it. To have a look see... BigBadToystore online has them Aztec Gold Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Capt Grey Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 Those who buy Master Replica products gave up on this because MR kept slipping the release date. First it was last July (in time for Comic-Con in San Diego), then September, then November, then December....ad naseum. But I'm glad to hear they FINALLY got them out - and that you have one, Lady B. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Charity Posted February 19, 2005 Posted February 19, 2005 *sigh*...I payed 85 bucks for the two, one with two sides and another with the same side with necklace. It's including the postage and due to one arriving broken i have actually three coins but still..this is SO much cheaper..
Kalum Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Hmm...haven't seen these pop up over at Disney lately. I'll have to keep a weather out fer 'em!
Captain_MacNamara Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 I preferr my solid silver one, yarr Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
HarborMaster Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 me too! *Wink* I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
PirateXPrincess Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 ok.... so on the box it says it is cursed, right?........so if i acidenally fall over a cliff into the ocean.....will i be rescued by johnny depp? Cuz in that case it's worth every penny! ~ ~ ~A wise man once said..... I don't know, ask a girl."~ ~ ~
Mission Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 No, since it's cursed you'll be rescued by Lee Arenberg. Mycroft: "My brother has the brain of a scientist or a philosopher, yet he elects to be a detective. What might we deduce about his heart?" John: "I don't know." Mycroft: "Neither do I. But initially he wanted to be a pirate."
Kalum Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Hmm...I wonder how long it'll be 'fore some yahoo out there sues cause it was't REALLY cursed.
JoshuaRed Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 No they actually are cursed - with every Aztec Coin order you'll begin receiving Museum Replica's catalog of Renaissance tunics ad nauseum until they break your will and you order one.
Kalum Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 No they actually are cursed - with every Aztec Coin order you'll begin receiving Museum Replica's catalog of Renaissance tunics ad nauseum until they break your will and you order one. Gods that is a bloody curse! I dun be thinkin' that 'nyone can be savin' ya from that horrid fate!
LadyBarbossa Posted February 20, 2005 Author Posted February 20, 2005 I have waited a LONG time - ok, over a year - to get ahold of one. & now.. I do. Worth the wait. As I mentioned... mine was sent to me by a fellow pirate. Part of my payment for a fine dress that I made for them. I wear mine constantly now ahhh.. I heard of the silver one. Oooh, would be VERY nice to get hold of the silver one as well! For silver means "death".. brass means "resurrection".. an' gold obviously means "deity". Hey.. Mr. Arenberg's not that bad looking.. I'll side with Keira on that one! :) If it be a cursed coin that brings in that lot of gents... I wouldn't mind. Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
DreadPirateRoberts Posted February 23, 2005 Posted February 23, 2005 I bought one of these, I love it! Me cat loves it as well...she's always had an odd love for shiny objects...
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 My third coin arrived today.... 855 to go? Is that the number? (races madly through the other forums so as not to lose the next game of Trivial Pursuit -- Pirates of the Carribbean Edition). "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny... 'Cuz he's only got one shoe! Ahhrrr!"
Captain_MacNamara Posted February 25, 2005 Posted February 25, 2005 882, I believe Captain of the Iron Lotus It is the angle that holds the rope, not the size of the hole.
LadyBarbossa Posted February 25, 2005 Author Posted February 25, 2005 Aye.. there are 882 pieces all together in that stone chest. So.. if you have 3 of them... all you need is 879 pieces more! :) Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
HarborMaster Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 I got the rest ! MMM MWAAAAA HAHHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH ! I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
LadyBarbossa Posted February 26, 2005 Author Posted February 26, 2005 :: Dangles the single Aztec Gold that is around neck:: Well.. not ALL the rest of them. Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
HarborMaster Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 The Drink Does not satisfy!., and the Blood ? Avast Lass indeed your stowin' yer own piece of Cortez's Cursed Gold. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
LadyBarbossa Posted February 26, 2005 Author Posted February 26, 2005 Aye... a fine piece it be. There be something erie & spooky about a woman who's name means "Resurrection"... & she holds a piece of Aztec Gold! Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Charity Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 No mate, there's three of'm here Impresside chain by the way :)
HarborMaster Posted February 26, 2005 Posted February 26, 2005 I needed somethin worthy enough ta anchor such o' piece o' treasure to me body. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
Cap'n Pete Straw Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 ..and, as I said, three are here. Can I just say .. the "roma gold" one has SO much more heft to it! What's much more incredibly impressive is that when ye flip it in the air just the right way (clipping it with yer fingernail when ye do so), it will ring most wonderfully. The commercially-available ones lack this feature -- they sound like zinc. "He's a Pirate dancer, He dances for money, Any old dollar will do... "He's a pirate dancer, His dances are funny... 'Cuz he's only got one shoe! Ahhrrr!"
HarborMaster Posted February 27, 2005 Posted February 27, 2005 Cool., I just tried it Cap'n Pete Straw ., and yea I can hear it ! I hadnt noticed it., but yes it pings well. I am not Lost .,I am Exploring. "If you give a man a fire, he will be warm for a night, if you set a man on fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life!"
Captian Wolfy Wench Posted March 4, 2005 Posted March 4, 2005 OOooh, thenecklacethenecklace!! That's what I'm talking about!! I was waiting for this. Their stupid showcase at Comicon had a lot of people fooled that they were going to be out at least that year. Lies. >.< Best thing is that... they're BEAUTIFULLY CHEAP. 'Ey, does anyone have one and can tell me if they are good quality?
