The INDIANA JONES Thread

[choopie]

It seems like Sideshow is the only one not showing off their Indy stuff. Every Thursday night I check the newsletter and still no Indy. We need Indy soon.

I hope we see the first Indy announcement from Sideshow during Toy Fair. If not the PF, most definitely the 12". I would think either one of these would be ready by then.

Is Sideshow doing dios, also? I can't recall the product line-up in their press release, but it'd be nice to see Sideshow tackle dios of scenes from each film.

There are multiple PFs and 1/6 figures in various stages of development.

And, yeah, I'll be stunned if there isn't an announcement or two by Toy Fair.

BTW, I just got the four Indiana Jones LEGO sets and I can honestly say the Jungle Temple is the most fun LEGO set I have ever built.

 

[Bardoon]

Anyone think they'll do a Priority Pre-Order for the Indy figures like they do for $tar Wars?

I think they might do it for Indy HIMSELF but not for any of the other characters. But we'll certainly see...the big sales will definitely be Indy so I'll be curious to see the difference in all the other characters.

I think the first Indy would definitely be a well advertised PPO, maybe during SDCC... seems like a time when they could get a lot of interest. After that it may depend on what sort of reaction the figures get.

LOTR still has PPO events, even though it usually takes a long time to sell out.

I would hope we'd have Indy before SDCC, since Crystal Skull will be out months before Comicon.

I hope something goes up during SDCC so I can order it and not have to worry about any PPO.

You're definitely going to have to worry about at least one INDY PPO before SDCC.

Whens SDCC... I pray we don't have to wait that long for the Indy PF!

I hope there are more things then just 12"ers and PFs.. like actual replicas!!!!

 

[thedarkknight]

I think it would be seriously dropping the ball to wait until SDCC for an Indy annoucement. Honestly, though, I thought it was dropping the ball not to have something shown before new years.

 

[mindbook]

Any hint if the SS Indy jacket will be made out of REAL leather???

SDCC is July 23-27.

Probably not. Sideshow hasn't used real leather that I know of except on Aragorn's jerkin.

 

[Bardoon]

SDCC is July 23-27.

They should DEFINITELY have some Indy stuff out for pre-order before then! The movie comes out May 22nd.

At least I hope they do.

Does anyone else get the feeling LFL is holding up the Indy stuff? I mean announcement wise? Hell we haven't even seen a trailer yet. And between the god damned Indy PopTarts and cereal (ugh!) you know they are ready to whore the license out.

It should be soon. And I think once they do open the flood gates, we'll be up to our necks in Indy.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'm fairly confident that SS INDY will present itself around ToyFair time. I mean, we've all seen the sculpt, so revealing the full 1/6th figure is hardly a surprise. Plus, if the PPO is in Feb then we might even have our Indys in hand by the time the movie opens.

It would be in Sideshow's best interest to mine the anticipation of this film early...in the event that this goes the way of TPM.

I'd love to see a whole 'Raiders' line announced and PPOd before the new film opens.

Indy
Toht (of course)
Belloq
Dietrich
Marion
Sallah
German Mechanic -- although not sure how to so this one bare-chested
Monkey Man

I know that's way too many figures to announce before May, but still... that's the list that I would buy.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

This can't come fast enough.

 

[thedarkknight]

Yeah, I get the feeling Lucas is behind it. If that is the case, and the small figure from Raiders not having a street date until May, we may be waiting a long time.

 

[Batty]

Next to Darth Vader, Indy is definitely the most anticipated announcement for me. I can't wait.
