my (small) collection

Don't have much to do today, so I thought I'd take some pics of what I have and share them.



The antidote vial I got off eBay a couple years ago and it's a tad different I believe, but still looks pretty good. The idol I got at San Diego ComiCon in 2005 and was something I had wanted for a long time, so it was very exciting to finally get one.



These were items I got in 2005 at Disneyland's 10th anniversary celebration for the Forbidden Eye ride. The Indy figure in the third picture was one I bought at Disneyland in about 2003, and there's a "Micro Indy" in the temple entrance in the first pic that I bought there as well.



I bought both of these at Disneyland during separate trips in the last few years. The little snowglobe plays a MIDI version of the "Raiders March" when you turn it on.



Finally, I bought this at Disneyland just this past October thinking it was a tie-in for the new film, but having seen how the skull in the film will apparently look, I'm guessing this is just a generic item and not something related to the film after all.

Anyway, there's my small collection. I also have posters for all three films, but don't currently have them up yet.

cool collection!

Nice collection man! I like the little micro Indy in the temple enviroment!

Cool collection, thanks for sharing.

Nice collection! You should get the new Disney Indy, to add to your collection.

Michael, thanks for posting!

I love the crystal skull!

Thanks for the comments. I wish I had more, especially a Staff of Ra headpiece.

GREAT start my man!! Are you going to collect more toys or just props?

I got one of those skulls too LOL!

I always seem to have limited space, so I have to be picky about what I collect. I'm not really one to just grab one of everything just to have it, so I only pick up certain items. I might get some more toys if I find ones I like, but I'd like to get more props, like the Ra headpieces, a Sankara stone, a Holy Grail, etc.

You say small collection? I just have a lego Indy, a custom 12 indy, 2 fedoras (black andwho knows what the name of the other color is ), and that's it.

Nice collection Mike, I still need a skull myself.

I hope there will be a replica of the skull from the new movie.

I think the crystal skull you have is a Nancy Drew thing. I think this because I was at the store today and decided to look in the electronic section and there was athing called "Nancy Drew and the legend of the Crystal Skull" there was a pic on the box that looked almost identical to yours.

It still is pretty cool though. He can display it as the skull from the Max McCoy books. I enjoyed those books. I thought it would be cool if Indy could reference the fact that he encountered that crystal skull in the film. Especially since they don't physically seem related. I was actually worried they would just rehash the same type of skull from the books and ignore the books entirely. Not anymore.

I didn't say it wasn't cool. I just said it looked like a picture of a crystal skull on a Nacy Dreww thing.

I didn't want to accuse you of saying that. That was more my reaction to it being something from Nancy Drew. I wouldn't have expected something that worked so well as an Indy artifact and was pretty sweet to begin with would have come from a young female detective series. Pleasantly surprising.

lol. Yeah I've never read/heard of any Nancy Dreww stuff, for some reason i thought she was a reall person who wrote the Hardy Boys series!

I used to have a couple Hardy Boys books I read once when I was younger, so I know who she is at least, but that was about it. I vaguely remember the books. They were alright. Now, I think I'll get some sleep. It's 2 am, and I have class at 8.

I'v only read one hardy boys book. I'm not a fan of them, the book was alright just not something I'd read. My little cousin on the other hand loves hardy boys books.

I loved The Hardy Boys Casefiles that were published in the '80s and early-90s. The boys were grown up and there was a slightly more mature edge to the stories sometimes involving terrorism and murder. Had some great entries.

I looked all over the Indy store at Disneyland for the skull, but finally found it in the adjacent shop nestled among a bunch of Pirates of the Caribbean merchandise.
