HT DX05 - Indiana Jones - in-hand images

[Wor-Gar]

When a better one comes along, I will get him too!!!

Sad but true. I don't want to collect any more Indianas... I just want the definitve one, now.

I have the McCoy, I have an expensive custom, I have the Sideshow, soon I'll have the HT...

I have the Kenner Indy from the 70's, a custom Hasbro Han Solo/ Indy and Sideshow Indy and now the Hot Toys Indy. I like to line them all up just like an evolution line up

How about the simple fact that this IS Indy we are talking about?! It's not 2face, its not BW either. This is indiana jones at his 1/6 best!

My thought exactly- best Indy yet.

Dam C&D, do you own stock in HT??? your a Pitbull!!

I wish I did.

 

[Wor-Gar]

There is a picture somewhere of the line-up including the HT Indy. None of them are really INDY.

EDIT: here is it...

The one all the way to the right, the McCoy, basically captures my expression looking at these.


Special note: in this pic, the SS one kind of looks like Rainman Jones. "K-mart sucks."

It's not mate. Glad you are happy with it but it's not.

Same here... In a couple of years I might have the same feelings for this HT figure as I now have for my SS Indy... progress marches onward, or we hope it does.

I use to want that Toys McCoys bad, but it was just to expensive. Glad I waited, as I think the Hot Toys is the best of the bunch. And it looks way beter then that Prototype does in that line up. Already have all the parts for the Map Room bash, just waiting for my HT indy coming on Tuesday.

 

[spindrift]

No, I'm right!

One of you are right................I think!

Yes, quite possibly the best 1/6th Indy yet. But how could it not be?
This is Hot Toys after all. But it is not "Indy at his 1/6th best" not by a long shot. It barely looks like Ford for christs sake!

It is mate, it is, sorry you unhappy about it, but it is

HT by far the best Indy in that crop- sigh

Guess we'll keep going back and forth page after page- guess the "experts" (LOL that IS funny) just won't go elsewhere till they get the last word in...

For the record I don't think the HS from the pics is spot on. But i think this is also important with regards to HS perfection. I just got my first batman, the one with the amazing bale HS... But that HS is sitting in the box never to be displayed because I want "batman" on display. I feel the same with this figure. And now (no) I'm NOT displaying him without a head! In my book it looks like IJ. I'm trying to hold off until I have him in hand to really have a final say... So until then let's just say I'm very prematurely happy with this figure.

I'll be honest when the time comes...

No you are wrong.

Future me: that 2011 Sparrow sucks ass. The 2012 is soooooo much better.

This made me laugh. Thanks!

No you are wrong.

No your wrong

And we could do this all day, but what's the point? I'm not going to change your mind and your not going to change mine.

Show me one better?

 

[Wor-Gar]

The worst part of collecting is that expectations have risen so high. I remember when that Toys McCoy was excellent -- not in accuracy but in the fact that a complete little Indiana Jones was made, even with real socks! It was so exciting. Lots of forgiveness back in those days.

But as things got better, we demanded more. And here we are... bickering about jawlines and eyeshadow.

Don't say that- they'll get defensive and cough up the SS ....again......
