I think it's a fake. Ford looks good, but Shia not really...

If it is real then it seems wierd that they would do a second teaser poster when it's so close to the movies release.

Indeed. Looking at it that way, Ford seems to have weird proportions too.Inbanana said:

It's advertising art. They took HF body from the Last Crusade poster and put a new head on him!

It's not fake. We've seen this art before on the back of the new action figure packaging.
It may not be a movie poster though - it could be an advertisement for the toy line. Note the Hasbro logo on the bottom left corner of the poster next to it, suggesting that the poster is in an environment where toys are being displayed.
That said, I like this artwork, at least for Indy (Mutt, as I said before, looks tired). I could see this as the center of the final movie poster, with sketches of other characters and locations spread around it like in the Raiders and Crusade posters.

I agree... it's surely not fake... even the decorated-carved-red-wall style in background it's the same of the toy packages. It's orginal. And I must say that I do like it, even if I admit it's a little "gay"...

This is definitely for product marketing purposes.
The posters to the right and left are for Hasbro toys (Star Wars), so I think this is going to be used for similar reasons.
It is pretty terrible, though. Shia looks like the villain from Stargate, only in a leather jacket.

It has the quick and dirty, slightly amateurish look of artwork you see on the cover of genre books, like those by Louis L'Amour, or even The Hardy Boys. That's pretty appropriate in a certain way. My guess is it's real but definitely not an official cinema poster, more for a younger audience...the toy angle makes sense.
There's something weird about Shia's chin and neckline in the poster. Struzan wouldn't let that slide, and besides don't we know for sure he is doing the official posters? Don't worry, we have yet to see the full, official poster.

I could be wrong, but I thought there was going to be another teaser poster of sorts before we get the final one-sheet.
Not sure why I am thinking that, I thought I read that somewhere recently or around the time that the first teaser came out.
Anyone have any info on this?

Apparently, a Paramount rep confirmed it's fake.
