: I've been wanting to create my own Indiana Jones, but in the 12 inch range. I figured that the current 12 inch Han Solo would be the perfect place to start. From there, and I haven't researched this part, I'm sure that the current GI Joe line would offer more than enough opportunities to clothe Indy. I've seen a couple of figures that include items perfect for an Indy doll. Also the creator of Indy's whips (David Morgan, is that right?) offers a miniature bullwhip that would fit a 12 inch figure perfectly, and it's an actual working whip. Now, I haven't come across a convincing fedora for a figure of this size, but then again the one on the original 12 inch Indy isn't that great either. I would have started on this myself, but I've got the original, and prefer to spend my time and money hunting down other Indy Jones artifacts.
Micah, didn't you have a posting from an individual who was advertising a fedora for a 12" Indy figure about a year ago? I remember you were writing back and forth to him asking for details. I was just wondering if he ever followed up, and if you can give this posting a contact for that item if it still exists? Regards. Michaelson
