I think this is true. I would have thought it was a custom, because the head and hat look like something an amateur customizer would have come up with. But it does look too detailed to be something Medicom or Toys McCoy would have come up with. And Sideshow has great sculpts, just crappy paint apps, so I probably wouldn't have thought it was them, either.Honestly, without the paint job and the HT logo, if you just posted that shot of the SSC-MEDI-HT-TMCCOY Indy figures, I don't think many would guess HT made this figure.
Since this is a collaboration with Sideshow, why the hell didn't they just let the man with a proven track record sculpt it, and let Arnie do Reeve. I feel Indy was rushed out.
If you are charging $250 for a single figure, I expect total realism.
I hope this doesn't set another high price standard in 1/6.
Maybe Arnie only agreed to go over to Hot Toys if they let him do an Indy. He is a big fan after all.
Given the quality being produced by the artists already there, I don't see that having any merit whatsoever. This is all but confirmed, looking at the Indy sculpt.
Well BBTS just posted him for 219 saying "when a domestic supplier is found the price may drop." So its not as bad as expected, but still in that ballpark.

The guy's overrated (there, I said it).
Given Sideshow's putting him up for preorder Thursday, wouldn't they be the domestic supplier?
Did that change... newsletter said it was today. I'd assume at 10am PST as that's when things typically pop-up on frontpage.
Maybe they'll call this the Ultimate, Utlimate Unison and try to top the EB/Medicom Luke prices
BBTS has it for 219.99 price to be lowered
