Personally, I'll be getting the 3 3/4" line for my Star Wars and the Adventure Heroes for my son. If I have to make a decision in the 3 3/4" line I'll grab the Raiders wave that day and come back for the Crystal Skull figures after the movie's out.
 
I'm looking to get...

-Most of the Raiders figures
-Several extra German Soldiers
-Cargo Truck
-Trooop car
-All the deluxe figures
-a couple Adventure heroes, the Marion and Swordsman sets.
-MM Indy

My goal is make a complete setup from the truck chase sequence as it's one of my favorites from all the films. Might hold off on the Crystal Skull guys for a bit, so there's something to buy later. I've been waiting for Indy toys for most of my life, having been to late to get the original ROTLA figures, and never saw LJNs ToD line. The disney stuff is great, but I want a series not a couple Indys.

Absolutely none of it...I may pick it up in the future though, but I have no money to spare right now...
 
So far I've ordered both KOTCS movie posters, one of the TOD movie posters and the ACME character key. From the Hasbro line, the only thing I'm collecting are the Mighty Muggs.

I also plan on ordering PF Indy. Beyond that, I'm taking it one announcement at a time.

If I wasn't getting much of that for free I wouldn't be getting most of it. However, for the right price I figured why not.
 
Josh, you should try and get 2 more 12" figures somehow so you can mail away for the 1/6 Ark. :lecture
 
I'm hoping the 12" Mutt and the Cairo Swordsman come out pretty decent. I want the Ark but might wait and see who else they make first. C'Mon, Sallah!!!:D

This is gonna be one expensive day, but with first mass market Indy figures in over twenty years I can't think of any better way to spend the money! :rock
 
I only plan on getting the Hasbro figures I need to get the Ark.

HTS has all of them up for preorder, btw. It looks like most of the figures won't be shipping at least until the middle of May. Anyone have any discount codes?
 
Hmm... If I can find them:

Mighty Muggs Vinyl Figures, Wave 1
__Indiana Jones
__Mola Ram

And does anyone have anymore info about this:

__Akator Temple Race Game

I've decided that since room and money are an issue from now on i'm limiting myself to Temple of Doom stuff. Yes I know most think it sucks but it's still my favorite Indy film...

Thanks! That's a good deal.

Before I order anything, was there any clarification about what qualified for the premiums? Do you have to buy four 12" figures to get the Ark or any of the four types of figures?
 
And does anyone have anymore info about this:

__Akator Temple Race Game

From Hasbro's site:

In the Indiana Jones Akatar Temple Game, players try to be first to get into the temple without falling foul of the traps and perils of the ancient citadel. Game includes the Akatar Temple structure – complete with functioning “traps” – at the center of the board.
