Can we get Indy around the globe ?

Montana Smith · Oct 25, 2011

Yay! What Stewie said.

Except the bit about Tootsie Pop! (I've no idea what that is - I thought Indy was getting to know Moloch in Bohemian Grove back there).

Love the aged shots and the moody looking ones near the end!

Smiffy, you can see the classic, '70s Tootsie Pop commercial here:

The aged look on Pale Horse's photos is a gorgeous touch and the colour shot inside the actual "Forbidden Eye" ride is a coup-de-grace.

First class update! :hat:

Once again this is the best thread on the Raven...

Lance Quazar · Oct 25, 2011

Pale Horse, this is OUTSTANDING!!!!!

The pictures are spectacular - great, great, GREAT job on the "antiquing" of the images. Clever and funny captions, too.

The truck!!! The ride!! Excalibur!! My favorite pic is the low angle looking up at the temple.

Can't wait to see inside the vaunted Club 33, an area more secretive than the Grail Temple itself.

Gorgeous, gorgeous work!!!

I have to echo what everyone else has said... great stuff.

You must have placed that reservation for 33 a while ago...

Amazing balancing act on the Duck! :hat:

Any curious onlookers...don't see much of a crowd. Getting your shots in the "pre-opening" hour?

That's next level work, right there.

A bit of a regret. Traveling Indy could have been an internet meme...because he could have been here this weekend.

This is the KJ92508 Halloween House. It's on the street behind me...we've taken the family a few times now.

Heh, I saw a report about that house on CNN the other day. Has mini-Indy already left for his next destination?

Pale Horse · Oct 31, 2011

As I understand it, Lance has him back for some last minute stuff in LA, and then he's on to Nick up in the bay area.

He was only with me for my Disney Club 33 trip.

Again, thanks to the pressure of "offline" life, I've been badly neglecting this thread

@Pale Horse - there aren't sufficient superlatives to describe how thrilled I was to see Indy hanging off the front of that truck. Are there any more pictures to share ? I know Lance has some, and that Nick Turner is eagerly awaiting Indy's arrival...

Henry W Jones · Nov 8, 2011

This thread is highly entertaining. Very creative stuff. Great work everyone!!!

InexorableTash · Nov 12, 2011

I'll be down in La la land (visiting the DL of course) next weekend if little Indy needs transport up to the Bay Area.

If not, Godspeed little fellow - great adventures await in SF!

Continuing ...

Please forgive the poor low light quality of my point and shoot, and the general laziness of the post processing process

In the upstairs lobby

Awaiting the menu

At the table

Eating

Waiting for dessert

For the uber fan, only

Those in the know, know that Walt never got to eat at his restaurant. Tragically, one of the CM busboys said that this was his favorite table. In true PH fashion I said: "Walt died in 66' and this club opened in 67'. Explain that". I smiled as he sheepishly walked away.

But the image above was inspired from this window, and it's the same window that Traveling Indy ate at. This is the view, from that window.

Now, those not in the know, know.

What a doofus (the busboy, that is). By the way, the steak looks delicious! Did you give Indy a bite?

Pale Horse · Nov 16, 2011

Truly, that green bean/broccoli/pea dollop there above it (on the right) that looks like it was scooped from a lunch cafeteria was the bomb. Everything made there comes from a central kitchen 2/3 stories below. When I worked at the French Market back in the day, leftovers from the club were put out for the employee kitchen. Waste not Want not.

Best thing about the Club, for us...is the desserts, and cocktails. The rest is just somewhat ... similar.

Lance has more pics to post, but I can't resist posting some teaser pics. It's cool to be able to unpack the well-traveled Indy, set him on your desk and take a snap right away! I had opened up some figures the night before....

Indy is looking a little worn around the edge of his hat! Who knew that item was painted? Shoes are scuffed too, though that is to be expected from all that travel. I had to resist the temptation to spruce him up. I figured this was all part of the deal - travel scars? Voyage fatigue? Building character or something? Anyway here is another quick pic.

Wow the dust really shows up in pictures!

NickTurner · Nov 29, 2011

Some more fun stuff to keep things going till I get out and about! Folks are right when they say it's just plain fun to take pics of this guy. I'll have to edit it down to just the good ones as it will be tempting to post everything!

Rocket Surgeon · Nov 30, 2011

Good to see he's still moving, but where did the red line stop on this leg of the journey?

Can't wait to see the sights... :hat:

Can we get Indy around the globe ?
