12" Indy In Adventure Gear: Raiders Version Discussion Thread

[Kuzeh]

In ways the PF's easier, giant molds for the body instead of small, intricate pieces that need a firm construction like a figure body.

I don't think the problem with the delayed release of 12" Indy is the body...
unless they approved prototypes without the actual body, like with the Hobbits...if so, that was a bad call IMO...

 

[galactiboy]

That's a good point, although the body could have been a proto, and not production sample. But it would make sense that they would already have production samples of the body before building a figure.

 

[Murderofcrows71]

Speaking of production samples, shouldn't they be showing off a full version of the figure and box by now since it's supposed to be shipping next month?

 

[galactiboy]

"Supposed" is a very subjective term

 

[jungle jom]

I've got a Bad Feeling about This....

 

[Buttmunch]

I don't see why there would be any problems with the body. I mean General Obi-Wan had the new body AND Armor to worry about and we (some of us anyway) already have him in hand. Indy just has the Proto and interchangable heads to worry about.

 

[The Mike]

This one got the ax earlier today for the second time. I got rid of Belloq and the Indy PF as well as I don't want to dedicate anything to a dead line....that being said I am really looking forward to seeing what this figure will look like in hand.

 

[Sachiel]

I'm surprised we haven't seen what the box looks like yet.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm surprised we haven't seen what the box looks like yet.

Because it'll likely have to conform to the LFL standard for high end Indy stuff, which is somewhat atrocious, so why show it off.

 

[stshammgod]

I'm actually getting pissed at SS' handling of this line.

 

[chuck20]

i canceled all my sideshow stuff but this recently. I really hope it ships next month. I'm never buying from SS again methinks, too expensive, too long from announcement to product, and not much product adds up to a frustrating experience. No way this thing can live up to the wait. I feel bad for it. but that's just me.

 

[thedarkknight]

I cancelled mine a while back due to financial reasons. But, by the time it comes out I wouldn't have cared anyway.

 

[LTM438]

I gotta say, this the hype for this figure for me has died down considerably, especially now that I know we're probably not getting any more figures from this line...

 

[JediMike71]

I'm still sticking it out with this one. Wanting a 12" Indy back in 1981 when Kenner put out the old one, started me in collecting 12" figures anyway. I still have my exclusive pre-ordered with SS now.

And this comes from what source exactly?

 

[litial]

Impressive figure

 

[IrishJedi]

That was obviously speculative. But at this point surely you can't blame anyone for not giving Sideshow the benefit of the doubt.

 

[EVILFACE]

And this comes from what source exactly?

Only one other figure announced and history of other Sideshow lines.

 

[IrishJedi]

Exactly. Which would make it Deductive Speculation.

 

[JustinLuck]

I am surprised Sideshow wants to minimize sales by killing lines, but that is what they are doing.
