![]() ![]() Bizarrely, the top of the box which has the line of 1:1 figs pic (you know what I mean) doesn't have names for any of the characters, whereas all the smaller sets do. There are heaps of the old-skool skele heads scattered around the sets so those that prefer can replace the skullies with ordinary skellies. 4 repeats from the cheaper sets which means we have one new native figure and the crystal skullies. You can tell they wanted to keep the dark green colour scheme but the budget only allowed them 5 parts to do so. The treads are nice, but the rest of it is a bit thrown together. I'm sure there's a military expert around here who can tell us exactly what it is supposed to be. Kind of looks like a cross between the amphibious boat and a mini-tank. With the large eyes, it's kind of Homer Simpson-esque.Īnd here we have the token vehicle in the set - a weird little tank thing with treads. Spooky! I love these skulls, I wasn't sold from the initial pics but they have a very creepy smile and the head shape is just. Note the backs of the crystal head have a plume-sized hole - or maybe that's just where they injected the blue brain-plastic. Fashion conscious! (Note in the background the paws of the fearsome black jungle panther, ie my cat, curious as to see what the tribe was up to.) Also, don't ask me why these guys are carrying axes rather than, say, spears.Īnd what everyone's been waiting for, the skullies - three of 'em and a conquistador skellie - very cute. Somehow I doubt the movie will answer this question.īack view - as you can see, the scalp tattoos are also popular in this tribe. I wonder if hair is a sign of power in this culture, since one guy is completely bald and the other one has the most extraordinarily luxurious black mullet. Nothing new here.Īha! What have we here - two natives. Indy, Mutt, Irina, and that sneery Russian guy that's in the 2 smaller sets. Luckily I'm a sucker for spooky old temples, filled with devilish traps and hidden treasures, hissing fountains and overgrown foliage, creepy skeletons and crumbling stonework, so here it is: Indiana Jones 7627, Temple of the Crystal Skull.įirst off, the figs - 6 humans and 4 skellies (or should that be skullies? ) Out of all the Indy 4 sets, this one seems to cop the most flak - which may account for the fact that the other 3 were reviewed weeks ago and this one has sat, unloved and alone, waiting for someone to turn their eye upon it (or, y'know, buy it). Set: 7627 - Indiana Jones - Temple of the Crystal Skull ![]()
