1/6 Indy Customizations: Image Thread

HellboyFanChuck · Oct 24, 2024

Hey guys I have a question. I've been a member here for nearly 20 years and I'm ready to put together a 1:6th Indiana Jones.

I've got an issue. Finding a good jacket has been impossible. I'm building a Raiders era Indy, but simply can not find an awesome jacket for my figure.

Any advice you all can offer? Thank you all!

It really depends on how much you want to spend on the jacket as quality and price will very. It might be a good idea to join the OneSixth Indiana Jones facebook group as ppl are regularly selling parts and/or whole figures kitted with different custom bits made by different artists.

Hye Hwa jacket is considered one of the most, if not the most accurate one, but it's also the most expensive one. It's made of real leather

Kato jacket would probably be next in line as far as most expensive and fairly accurate. Also, made of real leather.

While not as accurate, the YMA/Mike Yuan jacket is pretty great quality and my favorite for the price I paid. Also, made of real leather. Rumor is that he will be working on a 2.0 that's going to be more accurate, so might be good to just wait for that.

Geewhiz and Siberian customs seem to be on par with each other though I think the Geewhiz is more expensive. Both can look pretty great if you put some work into them like weathering. These are both made of real leather.

The Toribox/Yunsil Jacket is pretty nice though it's not made of real leather and depending on your display, will probably start to flake at one point or another.

Man I really want to have an Indy in my collection, but sadly I think it would be a bit too pricey for me to put one together. Love that seamless look.

It will definitely be pricey

that's why I'm glad to be done with him

Wor-Gar · Oct 29, 2024

Holy Heck!!!! That is insane! That's a perfect Raiders Indy right there. That first picture, just has such a great expression, so Ford, so Indy.

Congrats to you, man!

If you're going to take any more pictures, I'd love to see one a little further back to see how he looks as if you're admiring his display.

Thank you so much Wor-Gar!! It took a lotta money and a little luck to get to this point
Here are the further back photos

Yep... that is one beautiful Indy you have there. The pants, shoes, the coloring, everything is bang on! I'll bet you're happy to be finished!

OK, so what are your plans for Temple of Doom Indy... :lol

amazing Indy you have there @arturdmorgan :clap

congratulations on owning such an incredible looking piece.

Amazing Indy. Wish I had mine at that level but it's back to were he was before, no jacket only yunsil shirt and pants. Really just need to focus on getting parts. One day maybe.

Thank you brother! I got insanely lucky with the jagzz jacket. Jackets are definitely becoming more rare from what I've seen. I'll let you know if I see anything go up for sale

Is that the old Toht ark behind Indy?

Yessir! Bruce willhite makes them on his Etsy account

Wor-Gar · Oct 29, 2024

Ah. I have the old Sideshow ark that came with Toht... but it has a rather dull gold paintjob. I've always thought about repainting it.
