Indiana Jones wave 4??

I thought this line was cancelled in its tracks - but look at this:

Of course it's a preorder from a dealer, so he might not have any clue what the acutual status is. None of these look too interesting to me and I think they would have sat on the pegs like Mutt Williams.

The line is not cancelled (though its longevity has certainly been called into question lately.)

The terrific-looking Temple of Doom wave will (theoretically) be on the shelves in September, but since many haven't seen hide nor hair of the Last Crusade wave, there's a good chance it will be similarly hard to find.

Two new deluxe figures are just hitting now, Mutt and motorcycle and a Cairo Thugs 2 pack.

Battle packs (also set for a fall release) were shown at Comic Con. They consist of a Last Crusade "tank" pack with Henry, Vogel and some Germans, a Streets of Cairo set with Indy, Marion and Thugs and a Crystal Skull set with Spalko, Indy and some Russians.

There is also a second Raiders wave for early 2009, pics of which were revealed at Comic Con.

There have been plenty of other rumors and confirmations from Hasbro about more stuff in 09, from a "Club Obi Wan" themed Temple of Doom wave to new vehicles, including the Duck and the Flying Wing.

Anyway, though I have been certainly a pessimistic voice recently regarding the line's future in light of Hasbro's recent behavior, we're not dead yet and there is still hope for the future.

I finally found The Last Crusade line at a local Kmart, and they had all the figures minus Vogel and Connery Jones (haha). That's the first time I've ever seen them.

Nothing new here. Just peg after peg of first series. They aren't selling, so I don't expect anything new soon. sigh.....

I hope they release the Flying Wing! With German Mechanic and Pilot Figure. That would be great!

They aren't. Since this thread was started the line has been canceled. You'll have to settle for Lego's flying wing.

Yup, the last wave is the Temple of Doom wave... THe 2009 Raiders wave, in all its glory, is not happening, and that's retarded on levels I cannot begin to fathom.

Hasbro really bungled the handling of this line, sadly. And we're SOL if we like Indy.

Well, the Temple of Doom wave looks good!

I just got my TOD wave figures. Mostly they are ok. I have very high standards though and thus was a little bit disappointed.

Indy = best face sculpt I've seen (now that's not sayin much!) But all around he's fine.
Mola Ram = His big old robes make movement in legs about zero. But nice headgear, and he has a flaming heart accessory, that alone make him kinda cool. The sculpt is very good.
Shorty= kinda crap. nice to have a little guy, but I am not impressed. Children figures are hard to find, so if you need a kid...
Temple Guard = like a lot. IMO the best figure of the bunch.
Thuggee Guard = fine. He's a big brute of a figure, but decent. My figure will not stand up unassisted, too top heavy.
Chick = I could have lived without her. easily. She is the only one of the bunch I wish I didn't buy. She doesn't really do anything. more of a static statue than an action figure really.

If you are a fan of the movies you'll probably like having all of them (maybe not her though). Indy is a not necessary either (how many Indy's do you already have?).

I'll probably get all the figures in that wave apart from Short Round and Willy.

I finally found a Vogel at Target on a single pack - funny no others from that series - just one Vogel and tons of Mutts. Id found a few of the grail knights at WM a few weeks back -

Well here in Britain there's lots and lots of Marion and Monkey man.
