According to someone who attended Brickworld recently, the question how the LEGO company will handle the Nazi problem has been answered...
Apparently, the idea of replacing the swastika with a cross or X won't even be neccesary.
There won't be any Nazi figures in the sets. Not even soldiers or anything associated with them...

Though I can somewhat understand this decision (problems were bound to arise if anything Nazi-like would be incorporated in the sets), all I would like to know is what the heck Indy will be up against in the LEGO sets?
The elements?
Little plastic snakes or spiders?
I mean... There have to be enemies... Won't it be weird if all the sets will only contain good guys?
Also, if TLC is trying to avoid the use of Nazis, why did they base all the launch sets on the two Indy movies containing them? Why didn't they use Temple of Doom?
