Cool stuff, Dr. Gonzo! I haven't seen my Indy figures since moving to this apartment in May, and you have tempted me to whip :whip: them out! (Pun intended.):p

It also makes me want to finish my collection. I still need the second truck release, Mola Ram, Giant Thuggee, and at least 2 more Thuggee Guards. And don't get me started on Advenure Heroes...

Good eye. The compound from the original release Jurrassic Park toy line does make an appearance as well as the jeep. I just covered the "T-Rex skelleton logo" with a swastika and it become's a Nazi jeep. I'm glad I held onto those... figured they would be valuable or worth some money down the line.

I'm glad you all enjoy the trailer. It was fun.
 
Great stuff, Dr. Gonzo! I love live action toy movies. How long did this take you to put together? Are you actually making a movie based on this trailer, and if so, when do you expect it to be done?

To quote the great Willie Scott: "It's about time!"

I've been hoping somebody would put together an Indy action figure film. From the number of different sets and setups that are glimpsed in the trailer, I'm guessing a longer piece will be forthcoming. Even if that doesn't happen, I still really enjoyed this one!

The puppet-mation adds such a sense of fun to things! Even when I'm stop animating, I often get the chance to sneak in a shot or two like that. In some ways they are more satisfying creatively, since they achieve a similar effect in usually a fraction of the time. They present their own set of challenges too, as it's often extremely tough to set up the shot without seeing your hand. Not to mention if you have no crew and are operating both figure and camera at the same time!

At some point, I hope to do a fake trailer with all my animated gifs, once I get enough of 'em together!

Yes it's going to be an actual story driven narative. I suspect it will be done some time early next year. I have been filming it off and on for about a year... I shoot it on average about three random days a month.

"Raiders of the Toy Box" is a great action figure movie. The same folks that did that one also did a fantastic ALIEN action figure movie "Alien 5". It is 30 minutes of pure fun. When I saw it I was blown away! You guys should check that out. The sets were amazing, I don't know how they did it. Those guys, who ever they are, are quite talented.

Yeah, I had seen Toy Box before, but I'd forgotten that Castle Greyskull makes a cameo :hat:

It was just great to see something new!

I've been acquiring Indy stuff like crazy. For the past 5 days, I've added and added more Indy action figures. At first, I managed to purchase 8 figures which were out of the box then a day later, I found a plastic bag with 14 figures.

Here they are now:

Raiders:

Last Crusade:

It's a classic stand-off!
