Gentle Giant makes some killer toys, but that looks bad. It looks like it's from the 80's. Hopefully they will fix it otherwise that won't be on my shopping list.

I'll be going to Magic Kingdom on the 15th, if anyone is interested in one of these. I'll take pics if they have them no matter what.

Awesome! Thanks Ken. My friends sister just got back tonight. One day too early to tell her to pick me up a couple as well as that 'snakes' shirt. I know they can mail them to your home directly from the park so you don't have to carry them around the park or take them on the plane home, which is kick ass.

That's right... I forgot you had the number to order my phone. Or, did you mean it could be paid for in person and then shipped to you?
Either way... let me know if I can help you or someone else out.

And the award for weirdest crotch on an action figure goes to... ;D ;D ;D I guess this is what happens when the character is made to be more "politically correct". This is actually the first step in the process; the castration of the rugged male tough guy type. Next he loses his gun and his whip (far too violent), and has to trade in his leather and animal felt clothing/gear items to set a good example for the little children of tomorrow. Then he is made to change his name because "Indiana" has the root word "Indian" in it, and we wouldn't want to risk offending anyone of Native American descent with such an antiquated term. Good eye in catching this process in step one Havana. You may be offered a high paying position on the board of " Future World: A Promise To Be Kinder To Everything ( Except Existing Things We Find Offensive)". You'll go far Pilgrim. Umm... I mean evil trespassor. Ken

I overlooked this thread and posted one myself. It has a link to a (probably defunct) auction. But here's a review by the ever critical Michael Crawford. I already picked one up one eBay. Still waitin' for it. I hope it's helpful to anyone who may be interested in the figure. www.mwctoys.com/REVIEW_010908b.htm-Josh
