Indiana Jones and the Lost Wave!

Without a doubt, one of the coolest toy lines that met its fate all too early was Hasbro's fantastically detailed Indian Jones series. This line only had a couple of waves when Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull came out. Collectors loved them and when the line was shut down, many of us bemoaned all the cool figures that could have been, but would sadly never be.

Well, even in this economy, there must truly be action figure gods. Because Hasbro has dared to make our dreams come true! This summer at San Diego Comic Con there will be an exclusive Raiders 3 & 3/4" Indiana Jones figure boxset from Hasbro. The set will feature 6 never before released figures that includes Toht, Marion Ravenwood, Satipo, the German Mechanic, Indy in German Disguise and Indiana Jones with a new head sculpt. All six figures will come packaged in a special collector box.
Here is how the figures will sort out --

- German mechanic (with gun, hat and wrench)

- Indy with new head (with torch, sand bag, idol, gun and satchel)
- Satipo (with pack, torch, and tarantulas)



- Toht (with extra melted head, extra melted hand, headpiece, hat, and poker)

- Marion (with torch, torn gown and writhing snakes)
- German Indy (with bazooka)





Aren't those fantastic?!? Be sure to click on the pics for larger embiggenable views. This is nothing short of a love letter from Hasbro to the fans. I am just thrilled that they're doing this -- and I know I'm not alone! Thank you, Hasbro! And is it too late for you to bust out that flying wing...?
