INDIANA JONES ARTFX STATUE SERIES
INDIANA JONES & DR HENRY JONES, SR
A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! If adventure has a name?it must be Indiana Jones! And if craftsmanship has a name?it must be Kotobukiya! The two finally come together with the release of a new series of high-end collectibles covering all installments of the worldwide phenomenon ? even the upcoming fourth film: Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull!
    
    
  
From the classic Raiders of the Lost Ark, comes an iconic rendition of the greatest action hero of all time: INDIANA JONES. His special brand of two-fisted archeology is captured as a detailed 10 2/3? ARTFX Statue (1/7th scale ? the exact same size as Koto?s renowned series of Star Wars ARTFX Statues). Indy? trademark Fedora is removable, and his bullwhip is bendable! You can switch out Indy?s arms so that he can be displayed with his Smith & Wesson pistol, and tucked under his arm is the golden Chachapoyan Fertility Idol. Jones is sculpted by Kouei Matsumoto, and is on a display base depicting the rocky floor of the Peruvian temple.
    
   
Sporting an exact likeness of legendary actor Sean Connery, DR. HENRY JONES, SR is shown in his dapper attire from the third part of the saga: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Like his son ?Junior?, Dr Jones stands almost 11 inches tall, at 1/7th scale, as sculpted by Matsumoto-sensei. The good Doctor comes with two umbrellas ? one open, and one closed ? for your posing options?.just be careful not to destroy any German fighter planes when doing so.
ARTFX Statues are fun to assemble, snap-fit kits that can be easily put together in seconds without glue or modeling skill, with unsurpassed quality and detailing. Look for more Indiana Jones saga collectibles to be released from Kotobukiya in 2008!
