Indiana Jones 2023 - Rumors & Discussion

Even thought it wasn't used much in the film, I'd love to see a new Jungle Cutter set. 

I'd buy a nuke the fridge set as well. They could even include a little catapult mechanism or something.

The Akator Temple could actually make for a really cool playset with some clever play functions. Opening obelisk, drop-down floors, retracting stairways, and so on so forth. However, I can’t imagine Lego ever dedicating a flagship set to KotCS.

If we do get a small set from the fourth film, the rocket sled would totally work in my opinion.

Well, the Akator temple was the largest set of 2008 and the second largest of the 2008-2009 range as a whole, so it’s not unprecedented

As long as we get a set with Spalko and the crystal skull before this iteration of the theme ends, I’ll be satisied

It does seem very strange they would do every movie expect KOTCS and given the facf that there aren't really many set options for that movie then the price would make sense to be the temple.

Except it’s an 18+ set, which indicates it’s most likely either a buildable object or a diorama of sorts. In either case, they’d probably go for the first film, specifically the opening scene

Are we sure it is 18 and not an error? For some time we knew the JP visitor center was 18+ before we learned it's like 14+ or so. 

For now we have no reason to believe otherwise.

It could be a mistake, but for now we can't just assume that.

Then again, I could imagine them doing a diorama for that finale scene from Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The room had so much decoration it could easily make up for that piece count.

I wasn't aware of that, so thank you.  I think then you're right with the initial escape scene, that would make sense and I think it's arguably the most iconic scene from Indiana jones.  I would be more than happy with that to be honest!  As long as we get the Grail Knight I'll be happy.

Dangit, now I want a LEGO gopher

If they don't make this, it will be a travesty.

Absolutely brilliant. Prime 18+ diorama material!

LEGO have just announced their profits have doubled in the last few hours thanks to the fridge set. 

Seriously though, it would be nice to get at least 1 or 2 sets from Skull.

Yeah, agreed...  Now might be the ONLY chance to get a new Crystal Skull set...  and then they will definitely do the iconic Peru Temple from Raiders soon enough, one way or another...!

I could easily see Nuke Fridge being the new Bathtub bike. To think of it another way, can you think of a reason why anyone wouldn't buy it?

[Legoman123]

I feel like TLC never got a lot of love for first time round so it would be good to see sets on that this time.

Yeah TLC is my favourite out of all the films. So many scenes in there that are ripe for good sets.

[Portal Out]

Hasbro is having an Indiana Jones livestream tomorrow. I know Lego kinda reveals stuff on their own schedule, but it’s exciting to see reveals are starting!

[Lemerbrix]

I would pay $300 for a ucs nuke fridge

Yeah, go team TLC!!  A Venice channel chase remake and a Grail Temple set are a must. Sadly, we will probably never see a minifig of Vogel (who still has one of the funniest death scenes in film history to me), but this time, they could at least include Donovan somewhere. Not featuring the main antagonist of TLC in any of the sets was kinda silly

Do you think they would do the Grail Knight?  For some strange reason he is the character I want most from Indiana Jones.

Part of me thinks that's why we won't get KOTCS sets because the opposition/enemy in the movie are Russian, maybe Lego want to stay clear of anything that could be deemed as inappropriate or  'escalating' tension (can't think of the word I actually mean)  given the current climate and situation with Ukraine.  A TV series in England called McMafia was cancelled due to the same thing, it was on its second season as well. I know it may sound daft but with Russia been in the media on a daily basis and shown to be the evil/enemy and then children's toys having the Russians as the enemy can actually create a kind of lasting impression on children and in some ways people can say it is a form of propaganda.  

 

Just so everyone's clear this is not my opinion and I am just stating a fact from a company's standpoint that's all.

Yeah, we only got 3 sets didn't we? The plane chase, the motorcycle chase and the boat chase. 

The circus train and the Grail Temple are a must.

Weirdly Donovan has never been released as an action figure toy before. Kenner/Hasbro have never made him and neither have LEGO. They chose poorly
