Just returned from a quick trip to Clarksville WalMart. They had, on a rolling cart and also a pallet, a total of 4x cases of Indiana Jones 12" action figures.
The cases were marked with the nasty red letters "May 1st street date blah blah do not sell blah blah." So naturally I reached for my trusty keys and sliced a case open.
Evidently this first wave consists of "Talking Indy" featuring an ugly chest- speaker, "Whip Action Indy" with a less obnoxious switch on his back for activating his 40-lashes-Nazi-smackdown, "Cairo Swordsman" with... sword and snakes, I hate snakes and "12" Shia Lebeuf" which is just troubling. No 12" "Nazi Scum" in this assortment, though he is on the back of the package.
The first Indy I pulled out, having only seen his hat, was the ugly giant-chest-speaker-Indy and unfortunatley that was when old- man rotten stocker pounced from out of nowhere and went all narc on me... After I played nice and told him the normal stock ladies usually let me take what I want he told me to go ahead and take it since I had it out. Of course moments later I looked at and hated this Indy and had to wait a while and sneak back to the case when old sketchy stock guy wasn't looking. I happily settled on Whip Indy and the Arab Swordsman and scrammed.
By some miracle these did scan at the register without problems, in spite of the street date. Thank Crom, considering the B.S. I went through.
Never had any of the Indy toys as a child so I've got quite a nerd-buzz right now... can't wait for the 3-3/4" figures...
