Survivor Immunity Idol

Pages: 1 28 replies

Does anyone know where the carved figure used for an immunity idol on Survivor Marquesas is actually from? I'd like to find one like it or similar. Any leads?

Check Ebay. It may be up for auction now. But you might have to outbid Vecepia for it! Regardless, you also might find some info about the creator there.

There is currently an authorized auction on various Survivor items on EBAY.
Check out:

It is for the Pediatric Aids Foundation. There are about 41 items. It says that the immunity idol will be auctioned but it is not listed yet. You also have to go through a pre-approval process before you can bid. What I thought was cool is the voting urn with the last votes cast and the tribal stool which has some carvings around the seat and legs.

The one from the 20th season (Heros and Villians) is very cool. Anyone see it?

We watch Survivor each & every episode. The immunity idol this season is really cool. I wish that I'd get a better chance to see it.

Too late to answer the 2002 post about the Marquesian Survivor tiki but what the heck. The carver did put two up on eBay and we got them both. They were shipped to us before we had even paid. When I told the fellow that wasn't a good idea he said but there is no crime here. He didn't speak very much English but I hope I got through to him that there is crime at our end. It worked out he had his international money order and we had two terrfic tiki for our collection. We always watch Survivor and this year does have a great Hawaiian tiki. Wendy

I love that they do this auction after the end of every season and donate the money to charity.

Here are photos of the Immunity Idol, the Immunity Necklace and the Hidden Immunity Idol. All three are on eBay right now!

I don't know who carved those, but the puffer fish lamps that you saw in the tribal council area were from Swanky. They should auction those off...

The idol sold for $30,100.00!
CRAZY!

The necklace went for $12,724.36

the necklace is awesome! i wonder if anybody around here does stuff like that? maybe buzzy should start knocking these off.

I'll take two buzzy.... :wink:

New season...new immunity idol. And it is a very cool tiki yet again. Looks Marquesan inspired.

You're all starting to think I watch a lot of Survivor, doncha?

A Marquesan tiki idol indeeed! The whole set looks great this season! I've been anticipating this season since they announced the South Pacific theme. There looks to be a great tiki overlooking Probst during tribal counsel, and many carved poles under the a frame. Hoping for some more good looks at other creations, and maybe a little inspiration from them!

Slacks, you're not alone. :wink:

ALL the carvings look great this time around! My first thought was that they'd rented or bought all the OA stock for their set. It's not historically authentic styles either, but true Poly-Pop throughout! I wanna see more! (Sadly NOT my opinion on the cast this season!)

I wish they sold replicas or knock offs of these! Too cool.

Saw a few "idols" this eve
SO Who carved em?

2011 fall season

Yep, a much better look at a lot of the tikis this week. On the march into Tribal Council there looks to be two huge tikis, one is Marquesan.
The first challenge featured a couple of nice Marqs also. Better looks at the tikis during tribal Council too. I took some screen grabs, I have to post them.
