Are there any plans for a Henry Sr. figure? Yes for the Last Crusade there's... Henry Sr. Young Indy The Knight (guarding the grail) Colonel Vogel Dr. Elsa Schneider Indy (looks like he's from the scene in the castle where he says "Don't call me Jr!" as he shoots the Germans)

Is nobody else a little bit bothered by the fact that these figures look NOTHING like the actors? I mean, you honestly think that looks like Harrison Ford?
Also, the price of these things! £6.99 ($14) in Woolworths! Gimme a break.
And the 'Adventure Heroes'? Don't get me started...

If we don't get Short Round, then this entire line of figures was a FAIL.

I finally caved today after reading and looking at all kinds of reviews and pics of these guys. I knew if I got one I would want to get more, and thats the case here. I decided on getting the Indy with the crystal skull....hes loaded with accessories and has really good paint apps compared to the ones i've seen prior.

It was basically flawless.

^ that is an awesome figure. I dunno if I'll get to six figure purchases though....I'm planning on getting a Raiders Indy, since I feel like thats still the best movie out of them all, a mutt to go with my crystal skull indy, and some german soldiers to fight indy until we get a Toht figure

Uh, why wouldn't we get a Toht for? I'm pretty sure that Hasbro has plans for one next year or something.

I'm pretty sure that Hasbro has plans for one next year or something. Do you really believe that the Indy line will STILL be around next year? I mean currently, the figs are doing as well as the POTC figs did, not even Indiana Jones himself can sell, my Wal-Mart is MAXED out on Indy figs, the only thing really doing well is the Troop Car and Indy with Horse. I'm scooping up as many of these figs as I possibly can and drinking it all in now because I doubt they'll make it past the next line of Last Crusade figures. Thank GOD we're getting the Henry Sr. then.

^ actually there are plans to make more figures for 2009 And I'd LOVE to see the Indy line contine, because I'd certainly buy buy buy. Indiana Jones is one of my favorite movies of all time and there are certainly TONS of different, intresting chacters they could make, thing is, appart from true, hardcore fans, which, there obviously isn't THAT many of, due to the tons of figs filling Wal-Mart's across the nation as we speak, who's really gonna buy and un-named extra from Temple of Doom who had 6 seconds of screen time or a random Nazi that Indy ran of the road in a jeep? I'll hope and pray that the entire world suddenly goes Indy crazy and his figs starting flying of shelfs, so we can see up to series 6 and 7, but in reality, we both know that something like that won't happen. I do think that the line MIGHT last enough to see a Toht fig, but it is kind of stupid we didn't get one of right off the bat. I'd also really wanna see that Coronado Cross thief that gave Indy his hat, and had the brown jacket on, he would go great with the young Indy. Walter Donovan, Belloq in a suit, Marcus Brody, also Short Round, behind Henry Sr, he's probably the most wanted figure of mine, and Marion Ravenwood from Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, we need a new Marion to complete the family since we already have an updated Indy and Mutt.

My walmarts are bone dry, then one restocked with a display pallet and it got cleaned out pretty good too. TRUs haven't had much either due to their really good sale last week. I know the figs are selling well though and I believe hasbro said we're getting more throughtout 2008 for the other two movies and 2009....I'm hoping for a Sapito as far fetched as it may sound, and short round is confirmed I believe so he's on the way

I'm hoping for a Sapito as far fetched as it may sound, If there are three action figures of the Cairo Swordsman, then nothing is far-fetched.
