Zarkan Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Oh crud, 2008's months away and already my wallet is looking empty... wait, it already is! *wacko* X-D Well, regardless of that, these sets look awesome! So much to look foward to: that truck chase scene is GENIUS! The Kubelwagen is possibly the best wheeled lego vehicle EVER, and the truck is great too! Plus, look's like we're getting suitable stand in's for the nazis - AKA, figures that look like nazis without the dreaded symbol. ;-) Everything is great, so I'll leave it at that. Go 2008! *sweet* Quote
Scouty Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 They should have had the one where Indiana is going against the very big guy next to the plane... X-D . I really love these. Quote
Darth Andrew Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Just to refresh our memories ;-) *yoda* I was pretty close then. X-D :-P *wub* Indy *wub* Quote
xwingyoda Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 They should have had the one where Indiana is going against the very big guy next to the plane...X-D . I really love these. OK here are the facts: thats the first wave for 08 and then there will be sets on the new movie in may. Then we really can speculate on future sets !! There will be more sets from Raiders and since it seems that TLC is ready to go more military, there is a chance to see more military scenes: * Raiders's fight scene near that plane * Raiders fight scene on the tank * Crsusade's escape from the zeppelin Oh well, before speculating, lets focus on those sets !! I really want more pics :-P The prices are pretty ok for a licence I say ;-) *yoda* Quote
monkey overlord Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Hey, does anyone know what marion's hairpiece is? I heard somewhere it would be the new princess one but I would swear it's Padme's in black. Quote
Corvus Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 I think I'm gonna cry. :'-) My 2 cents: The bike set- Amazing. A good size, we'll be able to get the nice off-road bikes. :-) The truck set- Even more amazing. I love the design of the hoods of the vehicles, very realistic. The hood on the truck- |-/ The temple of doom thing set- Not much to say here. Looks good, but I can't make much out. The big set- Wow. Looks huge, that's gonna be expensive. It looks amazing, though. *y* Boulder chase on! The whole theme- I love this theme. It's very comparable to the Johny Thunder sets, but... Indiana Jones. :-P I think my favorite thing about it is that lego seems to be taking a turn back- They aren't going for the biggest thing they can with large holes in them. Quote
xwingyoda Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 The temple of doom thing set- Not much to say here. Looks good, but I can't make much out. Actually there is NO set from the Temple of Doom ;-) You're refering to Raiders of th Lost Arck: that scene where Indy finds the "map" which gives the location of the Arck and then goes into a temple and is left there to die with Marion !! He fighst snakes, destroyes some temple guardians and leaves :-P *yoda* Quote
oo7 Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 (edited) They should have had the one where Indiana is going against the very big guy next to the plane... And the crappy little watchtower to explode. :-D * Raiders fight scene on the tank I believe that scene's from The Last Crusade, my friend. ;-) * Crsusade's escape from the zeppelin That has always seemed strange to me.

xwingyoda Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 I believe that scene's from The Last Crusade, my friend. ;-) :-$ my bad there !! Bloody nazis, they get me confused |-/ Indeed that Mark VIII was in the last crusade !! I would love one though hehe *yoda* Quote

He fighst snakes, destroyes some temple guardians and leaves :-P *yoda* oops. :-$ Yes, that would be why there are so many snakes. :-| Isn't it odd how his other job is a historian (right?), yet he destroys the temples he enters just to get one artifact. :-P Reviewing it again, and I can't figure out what that machine gun is made out of (yes, it is plastic). I can't wait to get my hands on that hat. So beautiful... *wub* Reserving judgment on the whip, however. Edited September 12, 2007 by Mr. Mandalorian Quote
Athos Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Hey, does anyone know what marion's hairpiece is? I heard somewhere it would be the new princess one but I would swear it's Padme's in black. I think it is the princess' hair from the new Castle line, in black. At least that's what this article from classic-castle seemed to indicate: Princess Wig We were really lacking some girl wigs within our element portfolio, and felt this was a good time to do a new one. Ideally when we make a new element it should be as generic as possible so it can be used in multiple themes. We decided on this one, which could work for Castle, Hermione in Harry Potter and Marion in Indiana Jones. I was asked to tell you which designer worked on these Quote
Siegfried Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 They look great! *wub* Hopefully 7620 will be price reasonably (for Australians) as I wanted the bike in the Battank set. I love the truck. It is great to see so many of the old adventures parts come back, like the seats and radiators. 7622 is a must for me. I'll reserve my comments on the other sets till later as the photos aren't clear enough to be sure, but the plane in 7623 looks good. That has always seemed strange to me. X-D It's even armed and loaded. *wacko* oops. :-$ Yes, that would be why there are so many snakes. :-| Isn't it odd how his other job is a historian (right?), yet he destroys the temples he enters just to get one artifact. :-P I have always thought the same. With the way he goes to that place it would appear he hasn't got any permits for an excavation... Anybody else see a monkey with a bazooka on top of the truck or did I forget to take my medication? *wacko* I see it too! :-$ Do you have any spare medication? :-D Quote
hewkii9 Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 Ooooh beautiful. I really like all of those. I think I'll get the bike set and the snake pit, but I have a few gripes- -WHAT NO TEMPLE OF DOOM? That sucks. I'd like to have seen a really large Temple of Doom set[with the rack and maybe even an articulated Kali statue] -No Sallah? -No Brody? I still want them tho. Quote
oo7 Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 It's even armed and loaded. *wacko* I think if there ever was one strapped on like that it would make a good emergency defense vehicle...... :-P I have always thought the same. With the way he goes to that place it would appear he hasn't got any permits for an excavation... I know, isn't it hilarious? X-D But if you think about it, which do you think you would rather prefer; the armies of darknesh marching the face of the earth for all eternity or a little bushwhacking though an old stone wall? ;-) Quote
Batbrick Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 X-O X-O X-O X-O X-O X-O :'-) :'-) :'-) :'-) :'-) ! I go to sleep FOR 7 HOURS and you have FIVE PAGES ALREADY! How did I miss out on this? Anyhoo, It is beuatiful, I thought that the sets would have a lot less in them but LOOK! :'-) *wub* *wub* *wub* to all sets! Heres hoping for: Club Obiwan Mine Car Chase Bridge Fight Tank Battle and more to come some time oo far away! Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote

Tamaku-Dark Toa Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 (edited) Thanks for posting Sam!These look great *wub* ! Look at that truck. Woot, as the kids say. Woot, indeed! Tan, tan and more tan. It looks like the snake pit has brick-built columns. I can see my wallet is going to take a beating next year. I want several of them already. It's like the return of Johnny Thunder with a licensing fee markup :-X I bought several copies of the desert sets in the adventurers lines, I can see myself stock-piling things. The temple of Doom set looks cool but I will reserve drooling over it until I can see clearer pics! Sam, you are a stud! Thanks again. *sweet* *y* woot indeed *y* *sweet* ~Natalia I *wub* u :-$ ~ Edited September 13, 2007 by Tamaku-Dark Toa Quote
iamded Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Those look sweet! :'-) Definitely getting the Motorcycle Chase, that'll be about $20.00 NZ, 2 bikes, something to smash through, and a small building. Not to mention Indy and a Nazi (well, enemy troop anyway...). I'm pretty sure the boxes being smashed out of the way are just box-art, it doesn't appear to be Lego. Treasure Chase (?) looks awesome. The truck appears to have a roomy interior with a fabric roof and a monkey with a bazooka. :-P Kidding, we all now know it's Indy with his trusty whip. Another definate buy for me, even if it takes out about $60.00 (NZ) from my pocket. Awesome vehicles and new weapons! (Or, at least, more old weapons.) I'd love to get the other two sets, but it's not likely, maybe I could get the Boulder Chase set for my birthday or something... Still, these look amazing. Can't wait for better res pics, and trusty *yoda*'s review! :-P Quote
jp-30 Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 (edited) Man, these are way better than I expected. Awesome. No Toht yet, but I don't mind, I'll just have to make a custom (like in my avatar)! Edited September 13, 2007 by jp-30 Quote
Zzz Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 did anyone else notice.... - the "confidential" stickers on the box images? - that 7621 has a lower set number but more pieces than 7622? - that the box size of 7623 is REALLY strange? Did they make a deal with the post services? funny things... ;-) in 7623.... there are - Indy - Belloq - a skelly - (ONLY ONE) indian :-( , - (obviously) a pilot for the water biplane - another figure running in front of the spears????? or is it just my imagination? black hair, tan top, white trousers? anyone? Indys comrade with all the spiders on the back perhaps? or am I crazy? |-/ Quote
Lord Beckett Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Awesome, I especially like the two sets with vehicles. Can't wait for more pics. Quote
