Hasbro Indiana Jones franchise thread

That last shot with the boulder. So good.

That last shot with the boulder. So good.

Thanks so much! I’d actually put that boulder diorama together as a backdrop for my Present Toys Indy but the scale works so much better with this little guy haha.

Did a little repaint hair lips hands, shirt and tie, hot water then freezer for adjusting the brim of the hat, and the … ahem ‘lapel pin’…

 

[Johnny Utah]

Kazim got his figure!

 

[FlyAndFight]

That is a cool pic.

 

[Mr.E]

That's awesome.

 

[a-dev]

His soul was prepared!

 

[Otomofan]

Wow, where was that pic posted?

It is a little strange that there's a fig of such a minor character like Kazim (more casual Indy fans would struggle to remember this character's name) but no fig of Indy icons like Cairo swordsman and Mola Ram.

He's a repaint of Toht with a new head so it was easy.

Cairo Swordsman and Mola Ram are verboten because Disney is afraid of implying that non-whites could be villains.

 

[The Jerker]

Kazim's a decent figure to boot. Just odd Hasbro USA hasn't put it up for order yet. I had to import mine.

Cool character, cool look.

But yes hoping we get those figures too.

He seems genuinely pleased with his figure. Love seeing pics like this. He probably never expected a figure of himself after all these years.

How the hell does hasbro expect people to fasten these stupid little plastic clasps on Indy's holster and belt?

It's a good fig overall but that's a big design flaw.

You have to wiggle the belt up a bit onto the lower torso so you have more of a gap between the body and belt. That extra room helps plug in that peg a little easier. Still not a great design though.

Well, my preorder that I made in January with Target hasn’t shipped yet, but I did find him lying on the shelves when I went last week. He was the only one.

 

[Javi Trujillo]

Side by side. The diamond is easy to lose. Didn’t see it in the packaging and the first attempt to have Indy hold it sent it shooting out of his hand across the room!

I just received 3 retro Short Rounds from Target, and all three had fallen off the card in transit.

 

[Mr.E]

Poor Shorty. He's really getting the short end of the stick...

All these years and toys and they can't keep a simple bubble on a cardboard backing?

 

[Buttmunch]

The fact it’s not even tearing the card means the glue is probably just too weak and never should have been used. I’ve heard reports of ones even on the shelves just falling off. A carded Shorty will probably be very hard to come by if they are all falling off on their own.

Value.

 

[Raiders March]

yeah, goes to show that the originals that are still holding on 40 years after they were made by Kenner were actually made with some care
