Lucky Charm?

Post by suburbancomics »

Hello all...I am a new member to Club Obi Wan and am very excited. I am a huge Indy fan (I want to name my first born Indiana, im only half joking). Anyway I just ordered my first piece of Indy gear, an original MkVII bag. But the next thing I would like to start looking for is the four leaf clover lighter from The Last Crusade. I could't really find a past post on this so I was wondering if there was one, or if anyone had any info on finding one of these lighters. Thank you very much!!!

Welcome!!! The MKVII bag was my first gear piece also :wink: As for the 4-leaf clover lighter, here is a pretty large thread on discussion and perhaps you can find something good there.

I know Relic Raider sells these on his website so you might want to check in with him :wink:



Welcome to the Club :D

Definitely go with Relic Raiders work, and not for the official zippo version.

Looks like they are fresh out of the semi-SA ones. Too bad cause I would have surely ordered one too :roll:

Wow thank you everyone for the great input...I definitely want to go with the SA lighter. I just need to come up with the extra cash and its all mine. This habit is almost as expensive as trying to buy all the gear and clothes that James Bond wears in his movies :wink: but just as fun!!!

I got one second hand but I think it's the official one at Amazon.

If so, I'd keep away from it unless you aren't going to ever use the lighter. The deco is a thin layer, not much more than a sticker, and a hole melted in mine from what little heat the lid gains from being closed over the flame.

Really don't bother at all with the "official" LC clover zippo, its just painted on. The work of Relic Raider looks better, is really durable, and can be used without worring about it.
