Toy Fair 2011: Hasbro Indiana Jones Returns!

As a special surprise announcement, Indiana Jones is coming back....the delayed 5th wave of Raiders of the Lost Ark wave will be coming out! The 6 figures that were planned for the 5th wave in 2008 will be available as a San Diego Comic-Con exclusive. A repack of Indy, Toht, Marion, Satipo, German Mechanic, and Indy in German Disguise!

Are we to presume that they are talking about 1:6 scale ?

I direct your attention

A repack of Indy, Toht, Marion, Satipo, German Mechanic, and Indy in German Disguise!

wondering that the reference isn't to smaller figs

 

[icruise]

I had assumed they were the 3 3/4" figures.

 

[mfisher]

They are talking about the small figures... those characters were previewed some time ago but never made it to stores... guess they figured a small run would fly..

 

[bmarz1000]

They also mentioned a "fifth" wave. These are the 3 3/4 for sure. Hopefully, they'll be available to non Comic-Con attendees. Damn, why did I leave SoCal again?

 

[Buttmunch]

Yes, but they will only have 10 left for the website. They had literally only a few Sgt Slaughters to put up this year after the show. So I would NOT count on the website to have these. I'll just be adding this to the Starscream/Cobra Commander set and the Sentinel and Zaranna(s). Big year for Hasbro for me. Ugh.

 

[Wor-Gar]

That really sucks as I only wanted Toht.

cool. i want toht.

The rest were passes for me.

Awesome news!!! !!
I was so bummed when the line was cancelled!!
The first item on my list of SDCC exclusives! Sweet!!

 

[SnakeDoctor]

Never bought an SDCC exclusive before, but I might try to track these down. Does BBTS usually carry something like this?

[hunnipot85]

Anybody wanna do a split? I want Indy and Marion, you buy the rest? Split the price evenly divided by the figures?

 

[thenammagazine]

This is great news. Hopefully this'll be big enough for Hasbro to consider more.

 

[choopie]

I'm happy for those who are excited about this news. But I lost interest in the Hasbro toys a long time ago. Just not something I want in my Indy collection anymore.

Yeah, too little too late for me as well. After the nightmare of trying to track down the ToD wave, and the overall mishandling of the line, I lost interest in Hasbro's Indy offerings.

Good luck to getting them to those who want them.

[Batfreak]

Hard to get AND ridiculously overpriced. You know Hasbro is going to rake us over the coals knowing how bad we want this set.

 

[Batfreak]

^yeah not including the evilbay scalpers.

 

[Buttmunch]

If it is like any of their other exclusives, then yeah, this will be a pain to get. Even for Con attendees.

 

[Kuzeh]

I wish Hasbro did pre-sales like Sideshow or Mattel...
then just pick it up at the con...

Not if you know the tricks...

 

[CelticPredator]

Snatch and grab!
