Even the Terminator Salvation figs had superior jackets
Hmmm...well. I think if it stays like this I will seize the opportunity to save money this year. Theres too much negativity in this thread that I happen to agree with based on the new pics.
Just not feeling it. The build is wrong, the clothes are too clean, the likeness isn't exactly blowing my mind. Just a couple of years ago this figure would have been outstanding but now...should be better than what we're seeing.

Yeah, unless the final fig is nothing short of spectacular, I'll likely have to skip it--getting to the point where I need some pretty solid justification for shelling out over $200 for a figure. >_< 
I haven't seen this much complaining about a figure in a long time. Seriously HT get your act together. This isn't a figure you can afford to get wrong.

I wouldn't worry, if they release the official specs like this on FB, the response will be overwhelmingly negative. Thats how they knew to change Spidey.

Ironic how all the others have some semblance of Ford.
And don't happen to look like they're on steroids.

Hmmm... I've been reserving judgement on this figure, but in that group shot he really doesn't look that good. Overall he's the most refined looking figure, but honestly all of the stock figures look like crap

Hi Guys
I'm Indiana Andrews, Greggo's brother. He has kindly let me post using his username. I am finally joining the freaks tonight and signing up.
Wow there's so much negativity here about this figure, but hey you gotta love the passion!
Speaking as a HUGE Indy fan I am personally disappointed by what has been shown so far, i was so excited when they announced this figure, but let's be objective about this.
It is a prototype, period. It will, I feel sure, improve. However, from my professional viewpoint as a product development creative, I would never had allowed this to be shown to the general public, trade yes, Joe public no.
Production wise in the line up of the four figures, the HT blows away the competition, but the portrait needs work without question. The nose is not long enough, the eyebrows the wrong shape, the eyes the wrong shape. On top of this the fedora needs re-blocking - the pinch tightening, the brim reshaping.
The other main problem I have is the body, it's way too muscular. Now maybe this is a stock body HT have used for the prototype, if not this needs correcting. The reason why Indy had such huge appeal was his everyman quality. Sure he was slim, but Mr Ford was never that cut or defined, or that broad either. This figure looks more like the original concept art.
Costume wise the gun belt is not wide enough, it should be wider than the webbing belt. A minor point the gun belt is too dark. The holster looks huge, compare it to the size of the revolver. Not sure if it is the way the figure is dressed, but the breast pockets on his shirt look too high. The shoes look great, but way too new looking.
These are all simple minor fixes which are bound to be refined. It's a prototype in development after all.
We fans are always the most vocal and we must be heard right? They will hear us HT will get it right. We just need to be patient it will be worth it.
Best to all

Define please.
For such a massive fanboy licence, Hot Toys seem to have dropped the ball here. I'll reserve judgement when the official specs are revealed, but what a let down so far! Not a single redeeming quality about it. So un-Hot Toys like....surely it'll get better?....
