I've just added belloq to my collection and a few quick modifications to him. I have to say though that my adventure gear indy is my favourite figure-even over the rotla premium format now! he just needs to be reunited with some of his old friends!

Nice set of customs. I take it you wont be buying German desguise Indy, as yours probably looks better than the official one.

Has anyone modified a Giles from Buffy on a Hot Toys body with an Indy head. Thought about doing a custom, I found a really low price on the Giles and thought it might look cool. If anyone had pictures of one, please post so I can take a looksy.

I kit bashed my own German Indiana Jones as seen in the Lion's Den scene from the Last Crusade.
I actually think this one turned out better than i thought.

How did you get your Belloq jacket to look like that?

 

[MaulFan]

Quick question for people who put Indy onto a True Type body, if you're using the Sideshow hands, what did you do to keep them on, I want to explore the swap but without doing anything, the TT wrist pegs are smaller than the opening in the Sideshow hands.

You'll need to chop down the Pro pegs bud:

Not only does it fit like a glove after the chop, but it also makes the wrists less effeminate. If you don't want to cut down yours, TA should have the hands for like $0.99 a piece. Definitely worth exploring. But that's the only "hard" mod needed to do the conversion. Everything else ports over perfectly. You already know the shoes work with the TT pegs (just heat them up to pop the SSC ones out.

Ok, so you don't use the HT pegs, you used customized Sideshow pegs in the HT body, I was looking at them thinking of that, but didn't seem like it'd work. I don't care about cutting either, fortunately one area where Sideshow outdoes HT, all their new body figures come with a peg for each hand, so even if I screw up I've got 6 more pegs for Indy.

For a lot of figures, HT hands are fine, but with Indy, I'd like to still use the gloves and fists, they really help the figure feel like Indy for various setups.

If/when you do the port, if you have any issues, just find me on AIM/YIM and I can help you if needed. He really does look better on the Pro too.

Do you mean on the TrueType?

I think he looks fine on the Pro, my main desire for body swap is him being on a flimsy Pro and in some ways I'd like the TT hip posability better for whipping stances but in terms of physical build, I had no issues with the Pro body.

Sorry, back to back marathon nights for Batman: Arkham. Yes, I meant the TrueType. The pro wasn't bad, he just kept doing that drunken nod, but the noticeable difference once ported to the TrueType is extraordinary.

The neck on mine is ok, it's more his legs, when I took more action-oriented photos with the figure, I'd have to be ready to snap the shot the second I took my hands off the figure from posing it to ensure he didn't fall over, very unstable legs on mine once you take him out of upright stance.

I'm going to see how he looks on slim and narrow shoulder TT's and see what I like best.

I'd go with the narrow shouldered TT. The slim makes him look like Medi's Indy.

How did you get your Belloq jacket to look like that?

sorry for the late reply i havent checked this thread for a while. I havent really done anything to belloqs jacket except remove the snap.
that look is just from a small bit of futzing i did by pushing the shoulders back abit and then its pretty much held in place by the positioning of the arms pinning it in a fairly natural position

 

[xenoviper]

Just finished repainting SS indy head...

 

[small_studios]

Very nice Xeno. How did you like painting that sculpt?
