Darthlego Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Awesome review! It looks like a great set but Short Round's face creeps me out. Quote
Cloaca-Rus Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Клевый абзор! Толька фото-гоффно и аффтор не рулит!) З.Ы А че тута по упячному не базарит?) Quote
Kahgarak Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Thanks for the review. Seems like a great set. Quote
Cloaca-Rus Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Не ну чё, в реале не кто не пашет по русичи, клоака меня пообери?! Thanks for the review. Seems like a great set. Quote
Tinn-man Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Не ну чё, в реале не кто не пашет по русичи, клоака меня пообери?! I'm confused Can anyone translate Anyway, I LOVE this set, might even get two. And we finally get indy in different clothes. I still don't like willies hair, though Quote
Cloaca-Rus Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 I'm confused Can anyone translate But I'm not confused... OK. Quote
Derek Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Ummm. Does that even have anything to do with, well, anything? Quote
KDog Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 I'm so happy LEGO has finally seen fit to spring for printing on the back of torsos. About time! Quote
samthelegoman1 Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Does anyone know when this'll come out on the U.S? Quote
Skinny Boy Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Got mine minutes ago, and now building. Thanks Germany Quote
NewRight Posted December 14, 2008 Posted December 14, 2008 Thanks for the review of this brilliant set. A great in-depth review. Quote
Norro Posted December 15, 2008 Posted December 15, 2008 Great review of a set I will be looking out for! Thanks much! God Bless, Nathan Quote
DJ Force Posted December 16, 2008 Posted December 16, 2008 I saw this in person the other day, but didn´t buy it. Although the set is cool, the cars´re great and the Minifigs okay, too... The price is just too high. It was 35 Euros for 2 cars and some figs. I would have bought it if it was 10 bucks cheaper, but I don´t like spending extra money just for the licence name and for minifigs that don´t match the ordinary yellow skinned tabletown inhabitant. Seriously: take away the minfigs and you´ve got random cars without any licence to bother. In such a case I would even buy multiples of the set, because the cars ARE cool. Quote

Completely disagree with you on the figs. There's five, all brand new, though two have the same torso. I hate fleshies aswell, but only short-round has skin showing on the front, and Willie on her back. Considering Race for the Stolen treasure was the same price, with one less fig, and three of the same torsos, I would say this set is fair value. Depends on what theme you're into. I have found a use for pretty much everything already. Quote
Bricks Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 Thanks for this great review of a really great set! I'll hope I could hold this in hands at the 24th December I think this set will be the best of the Indiana Jones Theme range, just look at the new Chinese-Mafia Figures and the car's...wonderfull Also luck for Germany for this cool set... Greetings Bricks Quote
Morgan19 Posted December 17, 2008 Posted December 17, 2008 Does anyone know when this'll come out on the U.S? I'd mentioned a few pages back that I'd found it at my local TRU (in Virginia) last week and I believe I've read that others in the US have found it. If it's not out by you yet, I'd say it will be soon. m19 Quote
brickzone Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 I had opportunity to buy this set when over in Munich during the week, and I was sorely tempted. However, at €38 it's just really over-priced. I do want it a lot, but I can wait till it comes out in the UK perhaps and make good use of the €/£ exchange rate. Quote
eti Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Beautiful cars and awesome figs. I don't care for Indiana Jones (not familiar with the movies) but that doesn't matter. I buy sets mainly for the parts, and something tells me I want this set. But 35 euros... ouch. That's not 'cheap for a licensed set', really. That's 'expensive because it's licenced'. But I'm planning on doing some fairy tale MOCs and will need princesses at some point, so I will need that hairpiece... The only thing I don't care for is the paper (or plastic, what is it) roof. Reminds me of those ugly tents. Not good. Lego should do anything in Lego without resorting to this floppy stuff. Quote

Indy Legos Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 Hmm... New Indy (+) Willie (In her Parisian dress ) (+) Short Round... hmmm he looks like at 30 year old migit with a white hat... (-) Ganstas!!! (+) Black Car (+) Tan Car (+) Cloth on Tan Car (-) Stickers (NONE!!! ) (++...+) Price (40 is a bit much, seeing as you could get Motorcycle Chase and Race for the Lost Treasure for less... but Temple of Doom is my fav movie so screw the price !!!! (- (Sadly)) Being from my fav movie gets an extra plus! (+) Total (7+) (3-) Thats a 7:3 ratio for the best! I'm in!! Quote
Snake...SNAKE...SNAAAAKE?! Posted December 19, 2008 Posted December 19, 2008 This was a great review of a hopefully great set! Quote
ElisHelrot Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I've got this set now, and yes, it's really great, the minifigures are great and the cars, too, I like the black one more than the other one Quote
Derek Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I got this set on New Year's eve, and when I opened the box, I thought I had parts missing, it seemed so skimpy. The finished set is nice, and the new minifigs are fantastic. If it weren't for them, I think the price would be $5-10 lower... Quote
