After having thee in-hand.. they would make GREAT battle Pack figures!!
inky_skin said:Yep - presentation was all we got. I plan on following this point up in the next round. However, I think if Mola Ram has already been seen as a Mighty Mugg, he's pretty much guaranteed in this wave. If I were a betting man (which I am - try me), I'd go for the following assortment...
nb - two Indy's in this Wave follows the pattern of Waves 1-2
- Indiana Jones - Rope Bridge Battle (no-brainer - another distinct Indy variant - and Hasbro loves the 'battle damaged' deco's)
- Indiana Jones - Club Obi Wan (not 100% certain on this inclusion - the only alternative is 'Professor Indy' from Pankot Palace)
Believe there were only 6 figures slated for this wave. The only swap-out I can image would be Indy / Club Obi Wan - perhaps in favour of a generic Thuggee.
- Willie Scott - Rope Bridge Battle (shirt/pants combo is more likely than alternate 'Club Obi Wan' variant)
- Short Round (99.9% certain)
- Temple Thug (confirmed)
- Mola Ram (high probability)
Are there any more comic/collecting events before September where Hasbro might traditionally preview additional figures - SDCC perhaps ?
masterJ said:I agree, we should also ask about the TOD wave, supposedly they were going to announce the entire 2008 lineup at toyfair. They were quoted saying that on one of the Q&A's.
Can hardly wait to hear if there will be a rope bridge indy, that is by far the figure I was most excited for when I heard of the new indy line starting up.
Billy Ray said:I'd like to know why they decided to pack the Ark in with Map Room Indy for the deluxe set. Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for both (though I wish the Ark had the poles or at least the rings) but the two don't go together. Indy is never with the Ark in that get up
ChromiumBlue37 said:That is the one Deluxe set that makes absolutely NO sense! The pack-in figure for the Ark of the Covenant without the rings or carry-poles should have been Ceremonial Belloq! As a single carded figure he may end up a pegwarmer.
The Map Room Deluxe Indy is lacking several key components. A recreation of the map room base from the Kenner line would have fit very nicely in back of the figure flat against the cardback. The original base was small enough. There is no staff of Ra! With these 2 accessories missing, the existing Deluxe Indy in Arab Disguise figure is nice, but could have been paired up with more of a Map Room theme.
