HT DX05 - Indiana Jones - in-hand images

[spindrift]

I may pick up another one, this figure is amazing, the craftsmanship is top notch. Those on the fence, hop on this before it's too late!

Well said- get mine this week hopefully......

Yeah two of my collector friends...who were on the fence came over and saw mine on display...and ordered it immediately on my laptop

That speaks volumes- case closed as far as I'm concerned

Yeah one of them was not only on the fence, but actually a big naysayer...he saw mine and he was like..."crap. That's freakin awesome". His words not mine.

 

[dsokyra]

Of course its probably cuz mine has the "good sculpt"

 

[Rzeznikk]

TWO!!!? Two? Gluttonous.

But twice the fun...twice the adventure!

Now you know you're gonna have to photograph those two sculpts side by side, right? Just to see.

I wasnt originally going to get two right out of the gate like this. I was planning on waiting on the second, but with bloated head fiasco thing going on, I want to be able to compare and if I get one with a "fat" head like some claim to have then I want the security with SS if I need to exchange for a new head from HT.

But anyways, Im going to custom the second one into a Temple of Doom Indy. And I plan on parting out all the stuff I dont want/need with the second one.

These are REALLY nice pics. The headshot difinately is Ford. Love the action pose ala Well of the Souls.

Time for more photos?

The fat head Indy was a modified HS where someone widened the eyes. I think it was probably a recast, though, because it has a white PERS mechanism and HT only uses flesh tone ones.

 

[faststreetsofhongkong]

The first pic I posted was a fat head. I took that picture inside Hot Toys store in Mongkok, right on top of the box, on the first day.

Looks like most people are getting the good version, which is great. The few Fat heads that I've seen in person could be just bad castings, etc.

That doesn't sound like the Hot Toys I know...

So glad I buy most of my stuff from SSC, no need to worry about products that have been tampered with or fakes.

Is the stock jacket the same material as Blade's jacket, Blade's pants or Thor's pants, or nothing like them?

Please don't say Thor's pants.

 

[automaton]

Yeah, he posted those here already. Great shots. A little misleading though considering the jacket, whip and holster are all expensive custom upgrades.

stunning upgrades at that! are they still attainable?

It doesnt?? remember the John Conner mess??

I remember them issuing an updated head for HK customers that bought the first batch, but that's not the same thing we're discussing here.

Hi Indy freaks,

Here are some quick pics I took of Indy. I agree with the comments about in-hand being completely different than any pic, but I tried to get the likeness in these pics. Didn't touch the PERS though, I like the default look. Anyway, think overall he is the best rendition of Raider Indy so far, minus a few issues. Hope you all like.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Awesome pics, mystolle!

I can't wait to get mine tomorrow!

 

[Butters]

Yep, awesome shots

I'll get my Indie tomorrow, too!

 

[jye4ever]

What's this, no big boulder behind Indy shots yet

 

[Butters]

Someone made Randy's donut for IV, so you can bet that someone will post a boulder custom soon...

Working on it,
