Just a sneak peak so far. But man, I want one of these.

Me too, When sideshow announced the Indy License, I was hoping for a premium format. This will be on my list to get :)
I've got the hat now i want the model. $90 not bad for a 12 inch model.
Could go on sale toward the end of this coming week too! Can't wait!
I bought my hat from a guy called Indy Magnoli and he has a Indy prop site you can see it here
http://www.indyprops.com/ but it will be moving soon to this site
www.magnoliprops.com
he has some good collectibles on the site but they are for viewing only.
Oh my goodness - I so want this now. Look at these pics! The best likeness of Indy/Ford - ever!

Wow, that does look fantastic, really want one of these as well
That is brilliant. A real dead ringer.
Very cool
This is going on sale, FRIDAY, APRIL 18th at 10am Pacific time, 1pm Eastern Time! Woo-hoo!
Whats the price tag Rico?
Now idea right now, but I would estimate around $350. It's 1:4 scale and a premium format figure.
Sweet looking figure! And if the hat is removable, he can double as a premium format Han Solo figure!

Additional hatless sculpt is the exclusive.
Still looking so sweet!
Looks really cool, will need to set myself a reminder in my work Calendar to order one when the preorders start
Don't forget. This goes on sale today (4/18) at 10am PDT and 1pm EDT. Exclusive version comes with a second head with no hat.
Thanks for the reminder, will make sure I am on to get my preorder in for the exclusive.
My order for the Exclusive Edition is in! Woo-hoo! Sideshow's server gave me some issues, but finally got the order in.
Still trying, hopefully I get through soon
That looks awesome!
Hang in there Jeff. The problem seems to be at the final order click. I just paged back when it hit an error, reloaded the page, then hit the order button.
I finally got through, but the exclusive was sold out. but was able to preorder the flexpay exclusive version. So at least I have it, which is good, if I have to pay month to month over one shot, not a big deal
That's bizarre. I've never heard of the Exclusive Sold Out and Exclusive Flex pay available. They are both Exclusives. Edition size 1000, no matter how you pay for it. I actually went for the Flex Pay since this isn't due out for months. It will be paid for when I get it! :)
Yeah, that was weird, I finally got to the part where I could submit my order, and they said it was sold out. When I went back, they had the Flex Pay version still as exlcusive and the non exclusive as the full pay option. I thought that was weird, but at least I have an order number and preordered. When I ordered the flex pay option, it went through as smooth as butter, no waiting like when I was trying before.
Both standard buying and flex pay is sold out. I just checked and you have to go on a wait list if anyone either doesn't buy it or a card is declined. Even European sale is sold out.

The normal version is not sold out. Only the exclusive one with the extra head (where he isn't wearing his hat) is sold out at present. If you really want the exclusive version, get on the Wait List for one. Those usually work well for me.
Am seriously toying with the idea.
I just ordered the regular version a moment ago. There's no way I'd display it with the exclusive head. And, if I can get the regular version for less, I'll cancel my SS order.
I don't normally buy PFs; I've only got one, Ben Kenobi. But I just couldn't resist.
Here are some unpainted pics of the headless hatless version, from Sideshow's production blog.
Neats pics - but I think you mean hatless version - not headless. ;)
Yeah. The headless version would be the worst exclusive ever. :biggrin
The Headless version could be the Non Penitent Indy from the Last Crusade, a what if Indy did not kneel before the breath of God ;)
Good one, Jeff.
This should be coming in the next few weeks. I ended up canceling my order through Sideshow and buying from a 3rd party for $40+ less.
Whoever gets this first, post some pics for the rest of us.
It's been delayed about a month.
Sideshow says 1/2 their shipment will arrive in 20-25 days.

Yes, and a week or 2 to get them after that. That is a delay from the original date. I got an email from them and they are not charging my final payment for a month. They said they had some "quality issues."
Uh-oh, quality issues? That's disturbing.
I just skimmed the e-mail; I must've missed that.
The original date? I never take that seriously. I just wait for the "shipping soon" e-mail.
I don't take original dates very serious either. Except this time since I used the Flex Pay option and they sent me an email saying they are delaying charging my last payment for a month since the figures are not ready.
I think we got different e-mails, because of the FlexPay.
Did anyone here order the 12" figure?

I canceled it after I ordered the Premium Format statue.
Me, too.
It's shipping soon. Some people already have it in hand.
Pics look nice.
I got the Flexpay notice as well that it was delayed Until December. Looking forward to this, as it will be my first Premium Format figure, I am hoping the quality control issue is nothing major, since it is only delyed by a month.
I also have the 12 Inch Indy on order as well from a Online Store in Canada, they usually get their shipments later, so not expecting it until late in the year.
Dan or Rico, do either of you know when the Obi-Wan in Clone Armor will be released? I am thinking that should be soon.
I've had my Obi-Wan in Clone Armor for weeks now, Jeff.
Nice....
Ok, good to know, The company I order mine from is usually pretty late, so I suspect in the next month or so...I hope lol
My Indy PF is en route to the Sideshow reseller I bought it from. I should have it by the end of next week.
Woo-hoo!
The pics I've seen from people who already have theirs look great.

Sheesh! So much for buying direct from Sideshow the day it goes on sale.
P.S. Oh I just read (on the Statue Forum) that the delayed ones are the exclusive edition ones (which I ordered). Which one are you getting?
I canceled my exclusive order through SS and I'm now just getting the regular. I ended up saving $40+. I couldn't see myself either reselling the statue or ever displaying it with the fedora-less head.
I just went to my local comic shop at lunch and they were just pulling a regular edition out of the shipping box. Big box - can't wait for mine. Probably still a couple weeks for me at least. Time to visit IKEA again!
That is cool news it is starting to ship. I have the exclusive version as well, so would be a nice pre christmas treat if it arrives.
Got my shipping notice for deliver on Tuesday.
So, I stopped by Ikea on the way home and picked up two new Detolfs.
My wife just called to say that my Indy PF has arrived!!!
The next 5 hours are going to feel like an eternity.
Cool! Can't wait to see some pics.
We need pictures. :)
The flash isn't kind, but, trust me, this thing is awesome!
I'll take better pictures when my new camera gets here in a few days.
Awesome! Is it really heavy? Those shelves can't take a lot of weight.
I am concerned about that. I think I'm going to move it down. The base is heavy.
Yeah, I have my bigger, heavier statues only on the bottom base shelves in my Detolfs. Just wish the shelves were adjustable.
Yeah, that's my only real complaint with the Detolf, but they're still such a great deal for $59.99.
This one doesn't look so bad, because, with the base, it takes up about a shelf and a half.
My Ben Kenobi PF, with its short base, barely takes up more than one shelf, so that space is both visually upsetting and just feels like a waste.
I have the same situation with some of the Marvel and other comic related statues I have - just a little too big for one shelf. I've seen some people put them up on little bases and put them in the back of a shelf and some shorter pieces in front of them. But yeah - for $60. a pop for a nice enclosed glass case they are an amazing deal. I need to get a few more sometime this month.
Looks great Dan. Agree with both you and Rico on the Detolfs, wish they could be adjusted somewhat, as the larger statues look awkward displayed when they only take part of the display area. Actually feel that way about the Helmets as well, since they cannot be displayed with the base.
Well that does look awesome, gonna have to get me some of the Detolfs that you talk off.
