Speaking of Indy toys, this totally cracks me up

Seriously? While scouting ideas for little kids' Indy fig they settled on this? While I approve a Belloq fig, why this outfit? All he does is recite Hebrew and get his head blown up. For looking at the other guy.

I don't think those are ghosts in that gold box, but I suppose a toy of Angels or God's Minions or whatever would be worse.

Now that I'm looking at it, I think I need to take a better look at that ghost next time and see if it's worth having.

This entire line has always puzzled me. I remember giving Ben some Star Wars figures from this line when he was 5. Rather than getting excited about them, he pretty much ignored them in favor of regular Star Wars figures. Indiana Jones is even worse because the line doesn't offer too many notable characters. I suppose Short Round might be a hit...

I've seen a couple SW figs in this line that have tempted me for sheer cuteness, but nah. How many different versions of these characters do I need?

I was in Target earlier tonight, and I say the ghost is a pass.

I got Ben a "chubby" X-Wing from these series a while ago. He never cared for it and now I can't find it, damn.
