Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

Looking damn good so far. Anyone with close up pictures of the grail tablet?

21st century toys also made a 1/6 Motorcycle and Sidecar... not sure how much it sells for, but I've seen it used in the past for displays.

Missed one on eBay yesterday... sold for 109 or so? Anyway, I'm in a bit of a spending hold at the mo. so I passed.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

I'm porting mine to a TT, but I remember reading somewhere that if you can get the feet off of the Buck, the pro pegs will slide right into the Buck sockets.

Could be worth a try then? I've never tried to take a buck apart... are there screws holding them together?

Here are my pics,
sorry for the crappy quality, I took them last night

This figure is amazing!!!
I don't know why but SS does produce awesome Seniors!!
Ben Kenobi, Gandalf and now Henry Sr. !!!

That looks great, Kuzeh! I love seeing the figures paired up. But now that makes me really want a Last Crusade Indy! I was really hoping Sideshow would make one, but it looks like I'm going to have to kitbash one myself. UGH. I hate the idea of buying the exact Indy figure again. I can totally justify getting a new LC Indy since they would have done a new head and accessories--but buying a dupe is a little harder to swallow.

Like Henry Sr. on the chair. You should get another one and tie him and Indy together.

Great idea!

No. They're glued and a ***king nightmare to deal with. Break something and you'll wind up breaking something else fixing it. Personally, I'd go with a TT.

Yeah, I'm just down to my last one at the moment and that's a narrow tt reserved for a DX Joker... I wish I had a few sets of blank Pro feet like the ones that came with Cobra Comander.... I'd be able to put the dozens of Pro bodies I have laying around to some use... They work great for Luke. If that were the case I'd be able to switch some bodies around to get a spare TT.... oh well. I'm going to try to futz Henry into a better overall look with the Pro he's on.

Go ahead and use the Narrow Shouldered TT for Henry. Joker's clothes won't fit on it. You'll need to pick up the Slim TT for the DX.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

Slim is too small for Joker, Narrow or Regular fill his clothes best.

Henry looks amazing, that portrait really has that stern Connery look, and the glasses look fine on him, paint apps hold up.

Yeah, that sounds about right for one. They paint work is basic but with a bit of weathering I think you could end up with a nice looking piece.

Thanks dude!
I'm no completist, so I'm good with a great Indy and a great Henry Sr.
Unless Mola Ram or Sallah are released, I'm done with the 1/6 Indy line...

That's funny!!!

I think Narrow will work better, and yes, the paint apps are some of SS finest!! !

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

Received mine-happy but the hs still is a bit big on the Pro. I might switch over to the buck(really, did we ever think we would say that about any figure). I'm going to replace the neck(buck) with a ball'n'joint system. The suit is a little light in color but still looks good.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

Looks great, can't wait to get mine, glad to see the paint in particular seems to be improving. Liking these shots.

How is he too big? Connery is by no means a small man and is a former championship-winning body builder.

Re: 12" Sideshow Henry Jones

My ONLY complaint - and I could probably adjust this with some futzing - would be the way the suit jacket rests on the shoulders. Seems too bulky and wide, but that's the nature of the beast. Pants could use some tailoring at the hem to make them a wee bit shorter, too. But this is me LOOKING for problems. There is nothing about this figure that's glaringly irritating (Vader dome / Stormtrooper chestplate / etc.)

And other than the neck being a bit wobbly, the body is the tightest I've received since they switched off the buck.
