Medicom Indy and Dr. Jones - the polite thread

[abake]

Like I said before, it's not the height that really is the issue to me... it's the body scale. They are much to thin and tiny. I understand that Japanese people are thinner than Americans, but that doesn't matter IMO. Indy is American, and Indy was an average sized man, not very thin, kinda muscular. And with that body, it's just a drastic change in my eyes.

Now, if you took that head and gear and put it on a slightly thicker body, I would understand.

If I had an entire collection of Medi figures, it wouldn't be a problem. But with my mixed collection of HT and SSC figures, he would look pretty odd.

Maybe you could get a "massive" body loose and customize your Indy.
I'm not enough of an Indy fan to get these, but they do look really nice.

Do the medicom heads fit the muscular hot toys body? I'd love to make a TOD Indy from the Medicom.

Sideshow updated the estimated shipping for these two from 3rd quarter to August.

With Sideshow's Raider's Indy pushed back, will be happy to at least be getting these two to tide me over...they are both a birthday present, which was yesterday.

I don't own any Medicom figures, so I am really looking forward to getting my hands these two.

I've held off on these (especially the awesome looking Sr.) but if nothing is announced at SDCC then I'll probably pick a few of them up.

I've got Sr on order and if SS announces him at SDCC I'll cancel the Medicom version.

Sr. looks ok but that's a bad pic of Indy. Looks very Hasbroish in that shot.

 

[DarthNeil]

Still awfully tempted by that Jones Sr. If something isn't announced at SDCC he might just have to be pre-ordered.

 

[doesitmatter]

Indy looks better. Henry Sr. looks worse.

Any chance these will be on display at SDCC?

 

[Luchador138]

Got these guys on pre order, thinking about canceling it. Anyone got in hands pics, like from other boards?

 

[The Josh]

Jones Sr looks alright still. They both have that smooth plastic look Medicom usually has with their figures.

 

[Bardoon]

Sweet! I'm glad to see that Medicom improved the fedora!!!!!!!! Looks much better!

 

[galactiboy]

This is a shot Michael put up on his site... headsculpt looks really weak to me.

 

[EVILFACE]

Eyes are funky and not digging that belt with all the molded parts, cheap.

The hat looks good though.

 

[Entropy]

Hat looks decent, but the rest... yuck.

 

[Kuzeh]

He actually looks more like Belloq!!! WTH???

 

[galactiboy]

Good call... he really does

 

[Trevolver]

I think the hat has really improved on Indy...and to be honest, I really like the headsculpt, now. I think the mouth area is stellar. There's a great sense of expression in his face. Honestly, I'm actually a little less wowed by Henry than I expected to be.

The Medicom Han Solo sculpt is one of the best 1/6 likenesses I've seen of Ford IMO. If they resculpted the hair and stuck a hat on him I think they'd have a close to perfect Indy.

 

[doesitmatter]

I've been waffling on these for months. Now that I've seen them in person I ordered them.
