It's on gohastings.com. If you add it to your cart on gohastings, it automatically takes 25% off and drops it to $150. I don't know how long it will last though.

Thanks for the heads up "c3r1h5".

Hey, sorry if this has been asked elsewhere, but has anyone else had trouble with Indy's holster coming apart?

Mine did about a week ago and I'm just wondering what you all used to fix it.

Atilla.. that was a common problem.. mine split when I took it out of the box... I immediately just ditched it and made a replacement.. but you can fix that one with some superglue gel carefully applied to the seam..

Hey mfisher, thanks. I just tried to do some delicate handiwork and it looks like it paid off. I used a bit of hot glue along the seam and that seems to have done the trick. It's holding quite well, thank you.

That Indy looks GREAT RJones!!! I'll be adding to this thread very, very soon as I will have Les' repaint on the way back to me shortly.

Paint looks a little dark, but it really is a fantastic sculpt. Just how I remembered Indy growing up watching Raiders.

Hey Indiana Fett, is that a repaint?
If so, did you do it or have someone do it for you?
Sorry if I missed this information elsewhere, btw.

It is indeed a repaint, done by the Figuremaster, Les Walker. It's absolutely BRILLIANT!

 

[Atilla the Professor]

Yeah, that's why I was asking. Don't get me wrong I love my Indy PF, but the face is a bit dark and comparing it to the picture of yours, well I must say, I'm a bit jealous.
Can you give me any details? The price, in particular, if you wouldn't mind.

 

[Restaurajones]

No dark, it´s the light effect (two differents source lights) and the camera exposition.

One of (if not) the best re-paints I have ever seen, you really captured how Indy almost has a light beard in several scenes in Raiders ... Amazing Work!

Thanks faststreetsofhongkong I would like, once I have finished my 1/6 scale Indy, to review this repaint, especially the zone around the eyes.

 

[Karloff]

I received my Raiders PF from "gohastings" today.
The face color is about the same as every other regular PF that I've seen posted here. What were they thinking? Having said that, I am happy with this piece. The jacket doesn't look as green in hand.
I ordered another one when "gohastings" dropped their price to $150.00 I'm hoping that one will be a little lighter but I doubt it. I'll probably return one of them.
At least the hand color matches the face color.
#683 of 3000. I was kind of surprised that the number was that low after all of this time.
P.S. I can see why people are replacing the holster/belt with "mfischer"s rig but I can live with it.

 

[Valarauko]

Thanks for sharing with us Karloff! I started to order from gohastings but decided to have my Legolas PF shipped early instead. If hastings' stock of Indy PFs are afflicted with the darker-than-intended face as well, I'm glad I held off! Good luck on the other one you have coming!

I think I'll just wait until the TOD PF is revealed.

 

[Atilla the Professor]

Yeah I was going to buy my Indy PF at GoHastings but I figured there must be a reason they were so cheap. Whether or not it's exactly true, I'm glad I ordered from Big Bad Toy Store because my Indy is great =)

 

[Karloff]

It seems to be a crap shoot with these. I guess the best way to get one of these is to actually see it. Factory sealed may not be the best way to go.
This piece is amazing even with it's issues. Pictures don't do it justice. The paint is the biggest issue. How Sideshow let this problem slip on a near perfect piece amazes me.
It's a shame Sideshow was so inconsistant with these. Where did they start messing up the paint aps? What numbers? How can you mess up the Raiders statue?
The head appears to come off of the regular edition too so I guess it could be sent out for a custom.
Fingers crossed on my second order but I've seen enough pictures of these to know I'm playing the lottery. I'm keeping one even if it has a tan. This piece really is incredible.
