Re: 1/6 KOTCS Indiana Jones coming in 2009!?!
I liked KOTCS too. I don't know why people can't enjoy it as good dumb fun. Obviously it's not as stellar in storytelling as the others but I think Spielberg achieved the feeling of a good old-fashioned adventure romp. I've already watched it more times than any of the Star Wars prequels.
I would love to see an Irina Spalko figure more than anything. She was my favorite character in the movie and possibly the most entertaining of all the Indy villains. Not to mention we haven't gotten one 12" version of her from any company yet. Why is Sideshow so stingy with female characters? I thought they were marketing figures for collectors. There's only been one Leia and one Padme in their 1:6 Star Wars line so far!
As for KOTCS Indy, I'm not that thrilled about every other figure in the line being an Indy, especially one in the classic costume again already. I would've wanted a KOTCS Indy eventually but more like next year. I expect we'll see a huge production number cut in this one just like the Premium Format. And I have to wonder if they're just doing this as a cheap cash-in by reusing a lot of existing pieces.
