Nice! Indy in action poses !!!

 

[Craze]

Wow those are cool photos Cavlcade!!!

 

[Cavlcade]

Thanks chaps, took a lot of patience to get him to balance in that pose.

 

[jye4ever]

That looks just like Indy.

 

[Kuzeh]

Wow those are cool photos Cavlcade!!!

Love those pics!!

 

[Cavlcade]

That looks just like Indy.

That's because I photoshopped Ford's face on to that one.

Btw, bad ass pics, best so far.

Yes, even better than OMG, that's no small feat!

This is Wofford's pic that I cropped for a more cinematic look, I really like this shot... very Ford, very Indy.

If I get one like this, I'll be more than satisfied.

It's a shame HT's photos didn't make it look this good. I probably would have buckled and bought it.

 

[jye4ever]

That's the best close up of his face that i've seen

That being said, just look at that left (our right) eye fold, did HF really have it that pronounced.

No wonder any slight shadow from a photo makes it look like a guyliner!

Question: does he come with extra wrist pegs?

 

[Wor-Gar]

I start out with a smaller than regular paper clip like one size smaller, straighten it out and then on this figure I still figured it was a little to long so a cut the tips off a bit, then sanded down the rough ends that were left. I raised the collar up and wrapped the paper clip around the neck part of the collar from the back. This left the ends just about a quarter inch from poking out from under the collar flaps. I folded the collar down and around the papaer clip then I have some sculpting tools and burnishers thatI used to rub the collar and kinda tuck up under where the paper clip now fits. Also I squeezed here in there tightning the collar around the figures neck. Futz accordinally.

Told ya it would work.

 

[YoNoSe]

I have the paperclip. Now I just need the rest.

Question: does he come with extra wrist pegs?

Yes. He does.

Those that have both the SS Idol Chamber Display that can with Belloq and the HT Idol Chamber, which one is better? I really like that the SS one looks bigger/takes up more room for a larger display, but hows the quality next to the HT version?

Ordered. Great pics.

 

[Cavlcade]

Ordered. Great pics.

You won't be disappointed. But please remember that those are custom jacket and shirt in these pics.

 

[Billy Ray]

But, just for a moment, let's talk about what they got right:

Jacket: 100% Raiders accurate

Shirt & Pants: Very well done

Alden's: Best available

Map Room Gear: Awesome

Idol pedestal: I prefer Hot Toys to Sideshow's.

I would add to this the two side arms and the side bag.

HT's revolver is pretty darn screen accurate to the S&W HE2 "bapty", the one Indy actually uses in Raiders:

It looks like Sideshow went for the other version in the film, the "Stembridge", which is seen in the "cautious fellow" scene and when Belloq takes the idol, but missed the mark on the handgrips and front sight:

The side bag, rings aside, also is pretty accurate, even inside:

Wor-Gar, are you macguvyer in disguise??

Wor-Gar, are you macguvyer in disguise??

I wish. I got a few tricks, but this one I picked up on in the T-800 thread where it was used to tighten the collar all the way around Arnold's neck. But I figured you could use the same trick to also hold collar tabs down or position them how you like.
