To give you a little history of how I got here. I saw the Hot Toys Indiana Jones DX05 and was blown away, in spite of the sculpt debate. As soon as I got mine, from a member of this forum by the way, I immediately wanted to upgrade the accessories. And as soon as mfisher is back in business I will be ordering some upgraded leather gear. One thing I wanted was a 1/6 grail diary prop. During my search I found out the Indyfreak had made some at one time but was no longer filling orders. mfisher had made some static diaries that looked good but I still wanted one that opened. I found Daryl’s website at digital designs who made a nice looking diary set but after two non-returned emails I knew I had to do it myself. What you see is several days of research and trial and error. During this time it struck me that there may be others looking for a 1/6 diary prop as well. So that brings me to where we are now. I am offering these sets for sale. First off let me say this is NOT a WIP but a real finished product. I currently have 4 diary sets ready for immediate delivery and I'm making more each day. Anything above and beyond what I have will ship in less than 5 days.

*The diary is 1/6 scale 1.08" in height and has 44 pages with marbled end papers. These are images taken from scans of the actual diary and other references.
*The cover is leather and has an accurate looking elastic binding.
*The binding is glued not stapled.
*There are 7 inserts included. I know there is more but in 1/6 you have to draw the line somewhere.
*A 1/6 grail rubbing is included, printed on a nice translucent vellum paper.
Also included is a static wrapped diary package addressed to Indiana Jones.

I will sell the sets for $45.00 delivered to addresses within the US. If there is interest from our international friends I can quote you shipping just send me a PM. I've tried to keep the cost down in order to make this affordable to everyone.

If interested send me a PM or an email.
Let me know what you think of this creation. It has been an adventure just researching this and putting it all together.

Just received my set and I'm glad to report how great it is. The cover is supple REAL leather and each page is as detailed as a 1:1 prop (only smaller). The diary is loaded with inserts including the zeppelin ticket, silver certificate and Indy's Mother's memorial card. The grail tablet rubbing is amazing; what looks like real crayon on real vellum folded just like the movie! Saving the best for last: my favorite inclusion in this set is the wrapped diary. It has the address, stamps and post marks printed on the paper and is tied with real twine. All the printing through-out is crystal clear with vibrant color! The best thing about this diary? It totally works. In fact, Little Indy is on his way out the door with his tiny little passport (also included) right now to find the grail.

All in all a solid purchase and a must-have collectible for your 1:6 Jones Boys. Two thumbs up!
