    OK, I have to take some of what I said back. My local Target is charging over $7 for these figures, but WM is charging roughly the same price as 25th Joes and that's definitely more acceptable. I actually picked up the Indiana Jones w/Ark figure and am pretty impressed!

    I also hghly recommend buying the Adventure Heroes packs! They are a lot of fun and the Belloq/Ark pack is really well detailed! Here are a few closeup pics of that Ark:

    I also kind of like the Potato Head now! It's pretty cool that the hat plays the theme and I think it's that neat little gimmick that keeps it different from the other licensed Potato Heads that we've seen over the last couple of years.

    I still think the 12" figures look pretty cheap, though.

    How rare is the Cemetery Warrior figure? I am yet to find one. I want one for a Star Wars custom.

    I bought the basic Raiders Indy. I like these figures but the prices added with the pain at the point is decreasing my buying power.

    Sorry to ask but...there's a WHOLE bunch of indy figures and I am not sure which one to pick up...So which one is better? Or are they just the same mold basically with little changes here and there?

    I've only bought rotla Indy, Marion n Cairo swordsman so far, but man, going thru the shitfaced ones to get to a half decent one is a pain in the ass.

    its like face paint apps were applied on by sig heiling monkeys on bad dates.

    hope to pick up sallah, belloq n monkey man next week (the monkey is crap btw, its unfortunate u can't post him on his own, unlike the potc3 monkey jack, whos bigger too).

    I decided early on I would not get any Indy toys.

    I decided to rectify that to only buying possibly the Ark set, Sallah, and Belloq. I have yet to see the Ark. I was debating on subbing that with the Fertility Idol Indy deluxe set.

    I hit up TRU today because of that sale, but I dont want 3 Mutts for the price of two.

    Wallmart was next, but that was solely to find the Baroness, which was not there. I noticed that they had EVERY Indy toy there except Irina and the Horse (But I have seen plenty of those). This included the Ark set, with a good eyed Indy. I bought it and Belloq. Damn pistol is in my car somewhere.

    Pretty good. Wont buy anymore (Unless Sallah is on sale or in a two pack with either Marron or the regular RotLA Indy). I got a nice little Ark display going on my shelf so thats cool.

    That's the only Indy set I'm gonna get, and it's mostly for Connery. Maybe I'll get two and hunt down something close to a navy uniform so I can have a Lego Marko Ramius.

    There is a Crusade wave on the way with a Connery fig. I've resisted the LEGO sets up to now, but tis only a matter of time before I cave.

    I'm thinking about getting the Cairo Indy with whipping action for my desk at work. To anyone that has it, does the whipping gimmick interfere with posing the right arm and does it spoil the figure at all?

    no, the arms move fine. i'm more annoyed by the legs being locked in that pose. The HUGE holster sometimes gets in the way of the body twist, but thats fixable.

    certainly a nice feature that is executed well.
