I agree that it's one of the best Indy likenesses so far.

The hat appears too wide or the brim too small.

If that is the production paint app, I'll definitely get it.
 
The reason why the hat looks funny is that the crown tapers more than in the screen shots and is sitting up too high on the headsculpt :lecture

Ford's fedora sits lower over his eyes and ears creating that shadow look in the film
 
Interesting... now I'm not sure if I want this, or just find a DX on sale somewhere for the whole package.
But I do like this headsculpt better, although with the eyes as such, it forces the buyer to pose him with his head slightly down...

I'm no expect on Indiana Jones accuracy issues but to me the DX is a great figure, aside from the head. The outfit, the accessories, even the box it comes in is all amazing, one of the best of my collection but that face just isn't quite there. I have mine posed with the hat pulled a bit down which creates a shadow over his eyes which helps quite a bit with the likeness problem. What I may do is pick up this head after its released and replace the Dx head with this one, if it turns out okay so maybe consider that? I think this head on the DX body will give you the best Indy figure possible.
 
This is looking very nice.

Looks like it is a removable fedora, so the base of the hat is flaring out a little strangely as it pushes against the top of the head.

The base of the hat - or the top of Indy's head - needs to be thinner so it'll look right.
 
Couple pics I took today.

The eyes are looking much better in your pictures, and confirms that they will be painted from what i can see. Just fix the hat sideshow!
I'm also thinking a more weathered outfit but i know that won't happen, but i guess people that get him can add as much or little as they want to
 
Looking good. If the production piece turns out like this i'd be happy. Small changes to head and weathering would be appriciated.

Looks good enough for me. I do wish they had done something about that exposed knee though. I'm still waiting for final in-hand shots before purchasing, but this is officially back on my wishlist.
 
So excited about this, from whats shown here you gotta hand it to ss they really nailed this one
 
I think Sideshow will deliver. I'll probably add some extra details to it and a jacket.
 
is Kali-Ma up next? :pray:

They'd be crazy not to make Mola Ram to go with this Indy. Cool badass character but very simple/cheap to make.

I think the Mine Cart and Shorty are too much of an ask at this point. Maybe if the reboot Indy film happens those might get made.
