1/6 Sideshow 1:6 Indiana Jones - Temple of Doom

[YoNoSe]

correct me if i'm wrong, but is the neck too long?

It looks like the head is too narrow for the neck and sits right at the top. At least from the pics I've seen. I appreciate the pics posted so far but I'm waiting for this to get into the hands of someone who's going to really put him through his paces.

The neck looks too long, awaiting pictures of this modded. May pick this up at discount...

I got mine in today and i actually do really like him. I think the likeness is damn near spot on considering this is how Ford looked in 1984. The neck might be a bit off but it doesn't bother me TOO much. I think his hat is pretty much spot on. Keeping in mind, they changed the fedora from Raiders to Temple. This is the best i could get, but i think it looks pretty damn accurate

Looks pretty good. How are the cuts on the face handled? Are they just painted on? I was wondering about cleaning him up.

Congrats! Temple of Doom is my favorite of the Indy films so this figure is a myst. I am also hoping to get one of the custom mine cars!

Yeah they're just paint applications

 

[zombini]

is paint rub from the hat a potential problem?

Awesome, glad to hear that. Thanks!

I suppose it is possible I don't really see that being MUCH of problem. You push the had down a little to get it to fit on but you don't really need to do that

I'd imagine it's done like that to keep the sculpt clean in case they do other Indiana Jones figures, not 100% sure on that

Here's another issue no one has mentioned...what happened to the bendable whip? It looked fine in the prototype photos (top). In the final production shots it looks like a cheap rubber Hasbro accessory (bottom).

By the looks of these pics, I don't see swap-out hair. The hat must be one size fits all.

Under the section "What's in the box?", sideshow states this:

•Highly Detailed Portrait with Fedora and Hair Option Attachments

Wondering if that has changed???

The top of the head is magnetic and removes to be able to put the hat on

Indeed, the hair piece and hat comes with magnets allow you to swap....sorry i didn't told any detail pictures but this you can see the top "hair line" edge of how the piece separation from below photo.

Based on the design, I wonder if it will prevent the ease of using another hat, such as Hot Toys? Also, wondering if the design will allow flexibility in pulling the hat down closer to his eyes?

Welp, I've decided to keep this on PO; but I'm going to mod the hell out of it--like I did Plissken.

Lower the neck, weather the shirt and pants (lazy SS never do this for you), give him the mfischer belt and holster set, swap out SS shoes with HT's, try out the HT's Indy hat, saving that attempt to re-mould the brim of the SS hat with heat and hope.

I like the photos above of the HS, not too shabby in my jaded eyes.

 

[Ebeneezer Jones]

I like this sculpt. It has some David Beckham in it, but i still think it's a great Indy sculpt by the photo's.

The original design does limited the hat pulling down closer to his eyes, but won't be too hard to cut off inter PVC to achieve better fitting.

Got mine today, will open in the morning.
Headsculpt looks pretty dam nice in the above pics.
If you look at the back of the box, you might discover exactly where this figure was made...
Sideshow says whoops...

Is this the Turkish bootleg version?
