Hot Toys DX05- Indiana Jones (Raiders of the Lost Ark) 1/6 Figure Full Specs + Pics

[wofford29]

If this figure is really only 7 days away from being released I find it hard to believe one hasn't found its way online fresh from the factory for a photo op. This is easily the most bizarre figure release I've ever seen.

So bizarre that it must surely mean only one thing....
It's a deliberate attempt to blow everyone's mind when we see the new OFF THE RICHTER HS that they've managed to keep hidden.


Please be true

 

[Rorywan]

Or the polar opposite.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I was thinking maybe the fact that they are "sub-licensing" the property from Sideshow might have something to do with it. Perhaps we will see the same thing with Star Wars.

But didn't they with Terminator 2 as well? No change in shipping arrangements there.

Okay, NOW it's interesting again.

So everyone around the globe is getting it on the 17th. Whatever it is, we'll all see it at the same time. Hmmmm....

 

[Rorywan]

Kinda reminds me of unconfident Hollywood releases. No time for territorial reviews.

Hmmmm...Indeed.

I've been away for a week with only slow dial-up access. Anything new ? Any pictures ?

 

[spindrift]

No nothing new- just a bunch of guys going stir crazy with anticipation. One week to go!

 

[Darth Mangler]

Given HT's trend to re-lease figures, if the headsculpt is not good on this one, I will wait for the next Indy release.

 

[paulcarson]

If it's not good chances are there won't be another one.

Thats what I was going to point out. The only reason we are getting re-releases of past Jokers/Iron Mans is because they sold. If Indy doesnt sell HT will just say it wasnt popular enough. No fan support blah blah. Dont expect another Indy from HT. At least not for a VERY long time.

Or maybe they will just fire Arnie Kim and put JC Hong or Yulli on the next sculpt for Temple of Doom

There was this, from ACG Guangzhou, which may or may not be a "tweaked" Indy:

He did well with Reeves though. I'm still quietly confident this'll turn out fine. Remember all the panic over the Alice headsculpt but I have to agree with Rzeznikk, that if this doesn't sell well, then we'll be waiting along time if ever for a TOD Indy.

True. This one makes it or breaks it.

Of course, there's still enterbay... who would love to top HT somehow... if only they could get the rights.

Even if Enterbay got the rights they would probably only make a 1/4 scale Indy (which would hopefully be just as awesome as their 1/4 T2), so this will probably the best 1/6 version of our beloved Dr. Jones for the time being.

HT have been knocking it out of the park with all their recent releases, so I have absolutely no reason to think that they won't with Indy, too.

watch, all the nay-sayers will be secretly ordering this once the in hand pics start comin...

I think there will be a lot of people order it if they fix the sculpt once in hand pics start.....

 

[Butters]

More than likely. I just can't see them putting out something that's only 3/4 Indy. It just would make any sense.


But even if it is perfect, some naysayers will still nay...

Very true, he did great on Superman and that I PO'ed that today after last night's announcement and final product picture.

My fingers are crossed, I haven't lost all faith yet
