The INDIANA JONES Thread

[Darthrazz]

You're right. They should make the whip the exclusive.

Actually , as with Qui-Gon's Poncho , the jacket HAS to be the exclusive, I mean he didn't really wear it through the whole movie.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Fantastic job, Trev!!

I did a custom Indy fig years ago which I really like but I'll be happy when SS's version is released as well.

 

[galactiboy]

I don't know about Indy, but the exclusives for the Raiders baddies should be alternated melted heads! That would kick so much ass!

And for expansion pack... Arc of the covenant! And the exclusive version of that could come with a wooden crate to pack it away in

 

[paulcarson]

Trev, congrats on a fantastic sculpt ! It couldn't be in better hands ! I don't suppose you could ask them if you could rework the face into a Han Solo once it has been moulded ?

Awesome, thats really made my day !

 

[Scifi67]

That's an amazing head sculpt, great job Trev! Next year is gonna be expensive...

 

[Spartan Rex]

Trev,
This is the best 1/6th likeness of Harrison ever done.
Ive seen em all pal. Youve nailed it.
I just pray that Sideshows paint ops dont drag it down.
Thank you Trevor for helping us fanboys realize our dreams.

Trev, I think it turned out exceptionally well and wouldn't mind having that visage on my Indy figures. Your desire to achieve as close to perfection as you possibly could gives me hope that this could turn out to be the greatest Indy likeness ever. I really can't wait to see what the finished product will look like. Hopefully SSC will have you do some more expressive depictions of the sculpt for different versions of Indy in the future. I'd love to see one with a gritting determined expression and one with Harrison's trademark smirk.
Thanks for sharing!

I agree. That is truly a phenomenal sculpt! I really cannot wait for this definitive 12" Indy.

Not bad for a mass-market toyline. I'm affraid I'm so starved for Indy merchandise, that next year, I will pretty much buy anything with the RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK logo slapped on it!

 

[galactiboy]

Not feeling the Hasbro's... I was hoping they'd take the new articulation and quality of the SW line. Oh well, one more reason to stop buying the smaller stuff.

 

[JustinLuck]

Yeah Trev, you're going to sculpt the next Han Solo, right????

 

[Matt S]

That Head sculpt is fantastic....I hope SS rocks out the paint apps on this bad boy!

 

[Mr. Fusion]

Here's a figure that Ben (half of Mr. Fusion. lol) made. It's been a work in progress for a few years. If you're real hardcore, you will notice that this is Indy is from "Raiders." It's Ben's fav Indy movie.

Now, I, Josh have one as well. But mine is from "Last Crusade." I'll post pictures of it later, as I've recently repainted it and have yet to take pictures.

Oh, yeah, and neither of us can wait until Sideshow makes Indiana from "Raiders," "Temple," or "Last Crusade." KICK ASS!

 

[JediMike71]

Cool custom Indy, Mr. Fusion! I like it. I'll have to post some pictures here of my custom Indy I made with some help from a customizer who made most of his gear. It turned out great! I love my custom...but I know I'll buy Indy from all of the Indy movies if Sideshow does them right!

i love the indy movies, but i'm going to display my indy ignorance and ask: were the differences in his outfit in the movies significant enough to warrant different figures from each movie? like i said, i love indy, but even so, i'd be quite content with one figure of him. out of curiosity, what exactly were the differences in his outfit in the movies?

 

[Entropy]

Minor changes. The crown of the fedora is higher and blocked differently in Raiders than Temple and Crusade. The belt is brown in Raiders and khaki in Temple/Crusade. Not sure but the strap for his bag may change color as well. One sleeve gets ripped off and his hand is bandaged in Temple. He wears a tie with the shirt in Crusade. And of course he wears the white tux and 3 piece professor suits in addition to the adventuring duds. They certainly could get by with only 1 version as long as they included all the artifact accessories: fertility idol, headpiece of staff of ra, sankara stones, cross of coranado, and the holy grail.

 

[wyrmn3500]

thanks for the answer! yeah, i have to say i don't think they would need to do more than one indy in his adventuring gear -- the tux or the professor outfits would be neat, and could conceivably prompt me to purchase multiple indys though! the head sculpt looks fantastic -- can't wait to see the rest of indy!

The hat is different in crown and brim size plus the bash is different in each film.

The jacket is shorter in Raiders, longer in Temple with a larger collar, and midway between both in Last Crusade.

Shirt color is different in Raiders

pant color is different

different web belt

differerent handguns

the markVii bag is the samethough

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

There's also the matter of his changing face as he gets older...I think the primary appeal of multiple versions will be the differing renditions of Ford's mug, not just his hat.

That's why I think I'll like an Indy IV version too.

I believe they showed some more Indy figures (like a Indy with his jacket on) during their panel and it appeared from the photos that he was sporting some Star Wars-like articulation.
