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

[meth head]

I see Reeves in the Reeves sculpt. I see Nicholson in the Nicholson sculpt. I see Keaton, I see Captain America, I see Downey, I see Lee....

HT Indy is one figure that I only see flashes of the subject actor.

I'm still waiting for that one great picture where the figure screams Ford as Indy.

Can't see it though can you?

I thought you superimposed the HT sculpt over an Indy shot. Even Indy's stunt double has a narrower jaw than HT's Clooney jaw.

This sculpt from day 1 looked nothing like Harrison Ford and everybody lobbied for some change for the better and Hot Toys decided to leave it as it was. Maybe they started making the heads way in advanced of getting the backlash from the forum and instead of scrapping them, losing some money they decided to keep going with it. I'm pretty sure Hot Toys would have to pay Arnie to redo the sculpt and decided they would only pay him to redo the Chris Reeve sculpt as that one would sell way more than this. The Sideshow sculpt of Indy is a great sculpt with a bad paint job. So far all the re-paints of the SS Indy look 100% better than anything else out there. A monkey can see the difference between this sculpt and what the real Indy looks like.

In fact, it looks more like Harrison Fords stunt double than it does him.

Take a look

Bang on hahahaha

Arnie did get the ref material right didn't he because that is spot on

Hmmm...try 60-65%.

I did say 'at best'

Wake me up when Hot Toys does a V2 Indy.

 

[Wor-Gar]

FYI, that's not a stunt double. Just one of those "look-a-likes" who do corporate events...or something like that.

Not even close

Hot Toys can commission Arnie to do these as well.

LOL You're right, but it is an uncanny resemblance to the Hot Toys figure..lol

Re: Hot Toys Indiana Jones In Hand Pics

I have made this experiment. Only I put the hat and have retouched the levels and shadows projected by the hat on his face

I see Harrison as Indy here

Spot on.

 

[ShortRound]

Still getting it. Not fully happy with the sculpt but it doesn't bother me that much. Can't wait!

Spot on.

For all those on this eternal thread who are dismayed/horrified by this figure, for those that abhor it, hate it, are disappointed by it, or merely unsure about it, then the answer is simple:

DON'T _____KIN' BUY IT.

The rest of us are very happy to have the closest 1/6th Indy yet produced with loads of great accessories and are not concerned that it isn't actually a miniaturised living, breathing, Indiana Jones. It's a sculpt, an artwork and on top of that it's a TOY! Something to pose and put on a shelf!
It's not cheap, but then not much is in the latter part of 2011. You get what you pay for and let's face it $200 is a reasonable dinner with a decent bottle of wine! When someone can produce a better Harrison Ford sculpt I will be happy. I have one premium format Han Solo and four 1/6th and this is the best Ford sculpt BY FAR!

I am sick of the moaning, just accept that a lot of people have put an awful lot of work into this and all you armchair critics can do is despise....if you don't like it then don't buy it! SIMPLE!

And I have watched the video above and am even more stoked. It' s an excellent piece. So there!

Not the strongest of arguments... but hey whatever works for ya

Video looks the same to me; the sculpt is off , hat sits weird and the jacket is off. The rest looks decent, but its not the level I've come to expect from HT.

After my initial disappointment wore off I am now very happy to be thinking about how I'll be spending my new-found $280

Wake me up when Hot Toys does a V2 Indy.

Wonder if a Temple of Doom Indy is likely given that part of it is set in Shanghai? I could see a V2 with two heads and a Tux outfit and a rope bridge outfit, but the HS would have to be ____ing perfect.

You really think they'll make another Indy?

Only way I see that happening is IF Enterbay makes a move to make a better Indy in 1/6. Otherwise it'll be a 1/4th scale war.
