I think it would be cool to see (from each film) Deluxe Editions of...

ROTLA
Jungle attire Belloq with Barranca and Satipo

Raven Bar attack with Ratty Nepalese, Mongolian & Giant Sherpa

TOD
Lao Che with Kao Kan and Chen

Kali Ceremony featuring Shirtless Indy, Purple robed Chatter Lal & Kali Priest

LC
Fedora, Roscoe, Half-Breed & Rough Rider

KOTCS
Marion, Ox and Mac in the Truck/Boat

That way we could have some of these lesser known characters that wouldn't normally sell individually. What do you guys think?

Those are some good ideas?but it will never happen. Three figures per deluxe? I?d much rather more scene oriented themes then just figures. I think of them as being either large accessories (IE: Ark/Horse) or miniature playsets (IE: Pitfall/Idol Shrine). I?d prefer the all figure deluxe sets to be army builders. When I think deluxe I think:

Raiders:
Giant Ball (includes pathway) with Indy
Temple Entrance with tarantulas and spider webs (connects to Giant Ball set)
Darted Wall set (Step on the switchs on the floor and dart shoots)
Map Room with Sallah
Anubis Statue with Marion

Temple:
Mine Cart?s with figure
Sacrificial Cage
Spiked Room with Shorty
Bug Room with Willie

Crusade:
Knights Coffin with Rats and Elsa
False Grail Display with Aging Donovan

Crystal Skull:
Fridge :p

That?s all the comes to mind at the moment.

These are great ideas! The suggestions above remind me of the Hasbro Star Wars "cinema scenes" from the late '90's, which did include three figures each. Also, in more recent years Hasbro has produced Star Wars "Battlepacks", which include three or more figures. As you said, these "cinema scenes" and/or battlepacks are a good way to produce characters that wouldn't normally sell individually.

I'd buy all of the above if they were produced. Though I'm not sure how well these would sell, I think they have a chance as long as the IJ line is selling well overall. Hopefully Hasbro will take these suggestions under consideration.

Also, I'd like to add:

- Indy in suit and Marion in dress from the very end of "Raiders" - this could be a two-pack instead of a three-pack.

Indy said no camels. Sallah's brother-in-law will just have to get a new car.

I'd like:

-Satipo and Barranca
-Gobler and German Officer
-German Mechanics (the big guy and the guy with the wrench)
-Kao Kan and Chen (Lao Che could come single-carded)
-Thuggee Guards (shirtless versions)
-Russian Soldiers (in their green outfits and peaked caps from Brazil; Spalko's driver and random soldier)
-Russian Soldiers (in disguise; Dovchenko and random soldier)

Exactly! Indy is adamant about not including camels. Makes you wonder what the issue is.

Great list!! The deluxe packs seem to contain just 2 figures.

All great ideas, but do you guys honestly think this line is going to last more then another year? I'm really getting skeptical considering everytime I go to the store(Target, Walmart, etc.) the shelves are always chock full of stuff that doesn't look to be selling. All the stores with Indy merch by me have small sections mixed in with the other toys, and they seem to have the same stuff every time I go in. Let's hope Hasbro gets out a few waves a.s.a.p., because maybe I'm wrong but I just don't see this line continuing for much longer!

Capt. Katanga and Bantu Wind Crewman 2-packs with machetes and guns, British and Gurka Solider 2-packs, and Jock. The lesser known, but still pretty BA allies.
