    Harry Johnson Indyesque comic

    Could this be it? There are so very, very, very many Indiana Jones rippoff comics that it's hard to keep track, but this is the first one that sprang to my mind. It was called Harry Johnson, Uncouth Sleuth, and I've only ever seen covers online, never any of the actual comics themselves...

    Indy Drawing

    Thanks! I used to use a brush, but for the past couple of years I've been using the Pentel Pocket Brush Pen, which (in my opinion) can't be beaten for speed and ink flow control. Rather than bristol board I use Hammermill 11x17 80# color copy cover stock, which has a chemical coating meant to...

    Indy Drawing

    I drew this today, and thought "Hey, why not post it on the Raven." On a more mercenary note, the original is about 17 inches across by 8 inches tall, and I'd gladly trade it for a copy of the Young Indiana Jones score (burned CD, mp3, whatever). I've been trying to find that music for some...

    the best use for the Toht we never got...

    You know, I'd bet if someone looked through the star wars line that they'd find a face suitable for Toht. One of the Imperial officers, maybe? Use an indy hat (painted black), glue it on, and some Henry Sr. glasses? You'd have to paint on the lips in order to make them prominent, but I think...

    The Room booby Trap ? (Raiders)

    I saw this on the Target website, and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it... it seems like it might be a kid-size pretend temple for playing Indy. Booby trap

    What Kind of Truck is used in ROLA?

    I was curious - does anyone know what the truck used to transport the ark in Raiders is (you know, the one whose windshield Indy is thrown through)? I thought it might be an Opel Blitz, but I'm not positive. Thanks!

    The Disney Micro Action Figures...

    Anybody know what the scale on these was? I've only seen pics, and they look to be 1/72, comparable to the Star Wars micro machine figures (not the action fleet ones that bend at the waist). I have nothing to base this on rather than gut instinct, though... anybody have them? If so, are they...

    Indiana Jones Animated Line

    The heavily stylized nature of these things is what makes them so cool, if the designs are good. If one doesn't want them to be too cartoonish, there's plenty of realistic looking stuff out there. These are basically take-home maquettes, which are the statues that animators use to give their...

    Kingdon Of the Crystal Skull Playset!!

    Are they doing something with the smaller scale? Officially? that would be amazing - I love the small scale stuff.

    The Hobbit: A Peter Jackson Trilogy

    I can't agree with this one. I think that Jackson is a logistical and conceptual genius - no one else could have envisioned those films the way that he did - but he is not a great director artistically. Look at the shot choices in LOTR, King Kong... the horrible slow-motion (though shot at a...

    The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor

    While I loved the first one, I never finished the sequel. I made it about ten minutes in, and it was so very, very unwatchable that I had to turn it off. I'll give the Chinese one a shot - it could be fun. I for one LOVE Maria Bello. Rachel Weiss is always hit or miss with me; I like her in...

    Any word on the Soundtracks?

    Hey, guys. First post, so I'm sorry if it's already been covered... I was wondering about the soundtracks, all of which - Raiders, Temple, Crusade, and the multiple volumes of Young Indy music - seem to be out of print. I expect (or at least hope) that the original trilogy soundtracks will be...
