Indiana Jones Figure: Indian Jones with Whip Action 12 Inch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've collected 12" scale action figures for several years, and short of buying a very expensive Japanese figure or the equally expensive vintage figure, I've had to do without a 12" Indiana Jones in my collection. Finally with the release of the Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (Single Disc) movie, there is a full line of 12" Indiana Jones figures.
Pros - I chose this figure over the Indiana Jones 12 Inch Figure - Indiana Jones Talking Indy figure because it was a better likeness of the character. The outfit is detailed, and the head sculpt is quite good, down to Jones's signature stubble and hat. The whip action is actually pretty neat, though the posability of the figure is limited by that feature.
Cons - No jacket, no maps/diaries/idols to go in the satchel, and above all THE HAT DOESN'T COME OFF. It's not just glued to his head; it's part of the head sculpt. This was a major disappointment.
As a collector, I can't help but be disappointed by this figure. My son on the other hand, thinks it's completely awesome. He has just discovered Indiana Jones and was thrilled when I handed this figure down to him to start his own adventures. I'll be replacing it with the more detailed Raiders of the Lost Ark: Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) 12-Inch Figure by Sideshow Collectibles!, which looks to be just what my collection needs.
