I was looking through my Indy figures and noticed again how poorly thought out they are as far as what was released and what wasn't that should go with what was. In other words German on motorcycle but no Indy/Henry motorcycle. Truck and jeep but no staff car. Belloq only came with ceremonial robes and orginally no Toht and still no Dietrich to set up opening the Ark. Why did we need a Mutt without a jacket? He doesn't even take the jacket off through out film. Essentially they gave us a piece or two per scene but not enough to recreate much. Why the jungle cutter? Its probably the most unimportant pieces in the scene that got maybe 30 seconds sceen time yet they give us those instead of the vehicles used for the main action of the scene. This also goes back to the Kenner line. We got the truck (that is totally screen inaccurate), Indy and horse but no jeep, staff car and more important, no german soldiers to drive the truck. Whoever was in charge of Indy toys really has dropped the ball. SW characters no matter how small a role get a figure. Look at Pruneface. Why make him? Not a great character in any way. He has no real part in the movie and is a pretty lame figure but was made regardless. Too bad Indy doesn't get that type of treatment.
