HT DX05 - Indiana Jones - in-hand images

[jimmie_dimmick]

Believe if or not, my GF had seen me looking at this figure a while back and talking about it in terms of likeness and such. Told her its one of those you need to see in-hand to pass judgement on. Well, low and behold DX05 was on my doorstep yesterday. She surprised me with it and said, "Ok, judge for yourself." Beyond looking a bit too tan, I can see Harrison Ford and am happy to finally have Indy to display at home.

Anyone saying this sculpt is bad is braindead. Wish I had the funds for one. It does need a repaint though. Wasn't there a very early repaint that already showed this?

If someone wants to sell theirs for cheap because of the bad sculpt I'd be all up for one.

Any girlfriend that buys you a HT Indiana Jones is a keeper.

I'd say so...

I bought two cause I liked it so much. I do t usually buy two of anything but this I wanted to be able to display both outfits. Anyone who bought this probably won't be selling just the head even if they can't admit it looks great.

Well chuck me on the braindead pile - It is pretty poor. It's probably the worst sculpt in the DX line. I own it so I'm not being biased. It's not "OMG this thing sucks" bad, but it's not "holy crap I've got Harrison Ford in my hand" good either. It's just an average sculpt.

You only need to look at the storm it caused on release.

Personally, the thing holding me back from buying one is the fact that I know I would want to send the head out to someone to repaint it and do a PERS fix. Just my $0.02.

Congrats man I know you've had your eye on this guy for a while!

 

[jimmie_dimmick]

Thanks! I did have my eye on it for a while and am juiced that I have it in my collection.

Just curious jimmy. Is your GF's name Bonnie? Based on your avatar I just imagined a rant where you yell at Sam Jackson. Lol

Not quite, but she could make an argument for me making some damn good coffee!

Thanks I have mine posed very similar. I love this figure. HS isn't perfect, but pretty darn good.

HS is very strange... some angles it looks great & other angles, well, not so much. but it's the best Indy to date. That's cool your girl got it for you. Also, everytime I see your posts I think of Travolta wearing the Santa Cruz Banana Slugs UCSC shirt. Tarantino use to hang here in my hometown and pays tribute now & then.

The funny thing is, my gf kept telling me how she doesn't care that I collect, but would NEVER support my hobby by purchasing any figures for me. Boy did she set me up good....

I know exactly where that campus is as I live in Nor Cal too. Have family that went to UCSC, which reminds me, I have to take my daughter to the boardwalk this year; she's never been.

Cool, she is gonna love it.

What's not to love? The Cali sun, the beach, roller coasters, hot dogs and cotton candy.

 

[jedijim3002]

And gourmet coffee. He he. Congrats jimmi. This is one figure I always go back to. I collect a couple different things. Star Wars, marvel, DC but this one always seems to stand out the most for me.

And don't forget it's never too hot or cold in SC. We have some of the best weather here.

One more Indy hs shot.... color is off in this pic.

Well, I bought a DX Indy. I hope someday to get a repaint done on the sculpt.

Crow, are your jacket and pants HT?

Hey sorry, didn't see your question until now. They are both from the SSC Raiders Indy, just weathered a bit.
