Indiana Jones in German Disguise 12-inch Figure

[bmarz1000]

I agree its about $15 too high.

Exactly. Oh well, it's Indy right? And are we absolutely sure the hat doesn't come off?

 

[DarkArtist81]

This one sold though. Its sold out for now (yes I'm sure a SC deal will come up but it sold well enough) Faramir and The Hobbits killed the LOTR line? Really? I don't think so. Sorry but that one is totally incorrect. Plus you don't toss out every major character to start. You bounce between doing major ones fans want with ones that folks might get because they keep buying. If you just do all the major ones first when you run out of those and try to put out something minor folks I think are more than likely to pass.

I think they hit the Hobbits too early. And Faramir wasn't a bad character choice, but the paint threw people and made them question the future quality.

Sideshow just often jumps off to do weaker characters to give the line diversity too early. They should at least do 3 hard hitters that will give the line momentum before doing minor characters. And when they DO the minor characters, they should do one of them and then a major, and back to a minor. This way even if momentum slows, you will have it back with the next announcement. At least that IMO.

No picture has ever been shown with the hat removed--- In fact the sculpted picture showed the head and hat as one piece.

They couldhave mixed in a Saruman before The Hobbits and that may have helped but with the work done on those bodies and how nice a job Tim did on the sculpts I'm glad they put them out early. They play a major role in the story of couse. His paint did cause some issues there but man people are missing a nice figure overall.

I agree that you need to hit the ground running with major guys like you said. Its that balance which I think is hard to find but like you said bounce back and forth. So I agree with ya there.

It's curious that they mention the cap as an accessory.

It's curious that they mention the cap as an accessory.

Maybe it comes with a cloth cap as well as the moulded one?

 

[The Josh]

One good thing about having a couple extra Indy's is I did end up with an unused hatless head I can change out if I want to go with that look.

They did it for Commander Praji. Why not Indy?

They did the same with the Stormtrooper helmet as well as the Utapau's.

 

[bmarz1000]

Hmmm....That's interesting...

 

[DinoLast]

They did the same with the Stormtrooper helmet as well as the Utapau's.

I think they have done that with Vader too.
Puting helmets and hats as accessories that are fixed on to the figure's head, is very misleading. They might as well put head, body, arms and legs as accessories too.

 

[Deckard]

So the base product is a torso and crotch?

 

[IrishJedi]

I still hate that this figure exists (at this time, in its form, and at that price).

 

[The Josh]

I still like that this figure exists. The price is a bit more than I'd like but it will look great in my collection. For those that don't you can just skip it and forget this thread exists.

 

[drjedisith]

Josh maybe you'll get lucky and one day SSC will make Indiana Jones in Crimson Cobra Commander disguise.

Could happen

 

[Deak Starkiller]

, I like it. I mean the price sucks but I like it.

It's a shame that this figure will probably be the parting release for ROTLA.

Do you really think so Nam? No Maproom Indy or Sallah? Personally, I'd like to round out the ark with a Dietrich and Ceremonial Belloq!
