We also have the jungle elements: 3015, 3016 and 3017 (sorry, I can't get the linking to work.)

How cool an Indiana  Jones theme would be.
I was just thinking of how I could make a fedora type hat...the rest seems easy.

I actually have a "mock up" of the Ark of  the Covenant for playmobil sizing and
pondering.

That is an excellent Jones figure from the somoclicks forum :yup:

Thanks for starting this link, Martin!

Arizona Jim :lol:

A very interesting thread this has turned out to be...

I was wondering, Richard, where did you get those images from the Jungleruin, alligator alley and the treasurecave from?

The Indian Jones custom looks fantastic.

PS.  The upcoming Jones movie about the crystal skulls is of course all fantasy.

The crystal skulls, purported to be Mayan or Aztec relics, proved to be fakes, first produced in the 19th century in Mexico and brought to light by a charismatic shyster American expatriate.

Archaeology Magazine is running an article on crystal skulls in the current issue.

Hello, Bogro ...



A very interesting thread this has turned out to be...



And, we've just started ... ;D



I was wondering, Richard, where did you get those images from the Jungleruin, alligator alley and the treasurecave from?



The images are about ten years old. They were "borrowed" from the Playmobil website when the Jungle theme was first introduced back in 1997 or 1998. (I've been "collecting" a lot of Playmobil stuff for a long time.) ... ;)

All the best my friend,
Richard

Hi there, Mr. Grinch ...  :wave:



The upcoming Jones movie about the crystal skulls is of course all fantasy.



You also probably can't wait to tell us about unicorns, tooth fairies, Santa and all the wonderful things that go bump in the night ...  :zz: ( Well ... we ain't listenin' 'cause we don't care. ) ...  :P

So there ...
Richard
