I was looking through my old and new Indy figures (particularly the classic Kenner Indy in Leather Jacket and started to think about when I first started collecting (I really don't recall owning to many of the original series (in fact, outside of Indy and German disguise Indy i don't think I had any of the other figures in the first line.
It then occurred to me that it was strange for that to be the case as my earliest memory was in the Letter I sent to Kenner a few weeks after Raiders was released.
I no longer have the letter itself (or it's response that Kenner very nicely sent to me) but I think my letter went something like this
Dear Sirs,
I have been a very big fan of the toys you have put out for the Star Wars Movies. My favorite character in that series was Han Solo. I have just watched another film that stars the actor who played Han Solo (Mr. Harrison Ford) It's called Raiders of the Lost Ark and it's about an adventurer named Indiana Jones
Sadly, I have not seen any toys about Indiana Jones and have been forced to settle for pretending my Hoth Han Solo is my new favorite character. Still, I'd really like to see figures done of indy, his friends and enemies. I hope you will make some cool play-sets to go with them as I loved the Death Star playlet I got a few Years ago. please take this under consideration as i'm sure I'm not the only kid who's interested in collecting Indiana Jones related toys.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Michael C Kramer
or words to that effect..... what's your earliest memory of collecting things IJ related?
