Im sure this is a possibility. Anything is possible.
I was meaning to say Disney. Super7 does do toys for other Disney licenses. I don’t remember where I heard it at, but Disney is supposed to be adding some new Indiana Jones Attractions and Rides in their parks. I’m sure that like the new Tron Lightcycle Ride they might do an Exclusive Action Figure Release and Super7 was who made that happen. I’m not saying it’s going to be easily affordable to come by but at least it will be there for those of us wanting such things.

I hope they will do something. Its probably unlikely since there is tons of existing product thye can sell. But lets hope.I

Disney World Announces 3 New Movie-Themed Rides & Attractions
At Destination D23, Disney unveiled three new movie-based rides and attractions coming to Walt Disney World.
Where have you seen these at cheap? Looks like all the ones at Targets near me are all sold out after they clearanced them. They went pretty fast.
Precisely. The other figures seemed to have those features.
I posted that exactly way back. It would have been a smart move by them, They don't make smart moves though at hasbro.
But it is each to their own. I wanted a TOD Indiana above almost anything else. So I definitely wouldn't want Cairo Swordsman etc at the expense of TOD Indy and other new figures.
I hear you. My first choice would have been updating the 2008 fully-articulated figures, give us a decent run, and put them on the vintage cards. Second choice would have been a 'full' run of retro figures - all previous ROTLA (and Captain Katanga - a glaring omission in ALL lines), all main TOD, TLC, KOTCS, and some DOD, all on vintage cards. Either line could have been about 50 figures easily.
Which is comical since all we heard during the 2008 line was how Hasbro was afraid of doing "guys in suits" for that line. Which is why we never got a lot of important characters like Donovan, Marcus, Professor Indy, non-Ceremonial Belloq, LC Sallah, etc. etc. etc.
Balance is important
The fact that Adventure Series has basically no villains, or at least villains for Indy to actually, you know, fight with is really disheartening. Oh, well. I'll have to console myself with my dozen German soldiers, German mechanic, Chief Thuggee and half-dozen Thuggee guards from the 2008 line.Balance is important
I think its one thing Hasbro really didnt get right.
Personally Im really happy they delivered some of the major characters that they might not have done like Brody, Belloq in suit, Indy Club Obi-Wan and Professor Indy. But if they were going to do those I wish they windened the range to make sure they included Mola Ram, henchmen and soldiers (though there was a different reason they didnt do Mola Ram clearly).
thanks for the reply! I can certainly agree with many of your points.

The only way we get horses/etc. for 6" is if you find something from elsewhere. I had been looking at the Mythic Legions Boreus Horse for a horse for Indy.
It's 6" but I am not sure how it would work with Indy. It's not cheap at $75
The issue I had with PFP was when I ordered a figure from Amazon? Someone had done the old swap job.
doh. I had hoped it might be a good fit. I'm not too familiar with Mythic Legions.
Thought this was the place to ask a few questions of retro collectors.
- Both lines also have a difference in packaging. Do you prefer carded figures or do you prefer the PFP?
I appreciate the PFP. Though I understand the appeal of displaying carded figures on pegs and some folks have really impressive collections where it looks like a part of their house/room looks like a well-stocked store. I thought the PFP boxes of the 6" figures were pretty well done with some great artwork. They do take up more space but I do like being able to put them back in a box if I want to sell them down the road.
Understandable. Agreed with the design of the Indy boxes. I also liked that they put a map on the bags that the figures came in. It may not seem like much, but it was a cool additional detail.
I bought this horse, and a black one, and am really impressed. Perfect size, just need to make a blanket for it. This is a bad pic for scale but it works well.thanks for the reply! I can certainly agree with many of your points.

That doesn't look too bad. Would you have a Raider's Indy that you might be able to seat on it? It doesnt look bad here though. If you can I'd appreciate it! If not that's ok too.
