I saw the Jungle Cutter vehicle at Target today.
Same size box as the Truck.

I didn't buy it though. :-/

This seems to be the hard one to locate, I got really lucky with it on shipment day. That is your best bet probably. Same with the German on the bike. It looks to me like deluxe figs were underordered (if you think back to POTC you might understand why, I actually regret not getting a few of those now). Still they lingered too long for WM's satisfaction and I think it might not bode well for deluxe figures in the near future. Just a hunch.

I haven't seen any of the big vehicles, the delux motorcycle, or the horse

I haven't even seen any of the Russians yet. :cry:

But my Target has the Indy stuff right next to the Star Wars figures. The two biggest pegwarmers are Moff Jerjerrod and the Imperial Officer in the black uniform. I keep looking at the German soldiers and then at these two peg warmers and find myself wondering if the Star Wars heads would work on the German soldiers bodies...

Hey Darkjedi I have been thinking about some Star Wars/Indy head swaps too. Anyone have any ideas?

I only have a couple figures, but the ones I have, all have tiny neck balls, so it might be hard to get the right swap. I have that guy from the AT-AT walker, with the extra armor and helmet and I tried a swap with him and his hole in his neck is way too big.

Here are the two set-ups I have right now.

Just basic little things using the inserts from the boxes as backdrops.

Horse and Truck:

German Troop Car:

That huge missile-launcher MG42 is definitely getting replaced by a more scale accurate version.

I also have a beastie that will soon find it's way in to a little Indy dio.

The Guardian of the Peacock's Eye:

(I have pretty much zero interest in the Narnia films, and the Narnia human figures look pretty crappy, but they sure did make some nice beasts in the line.)

Tried a few trade outs with the few Star Wars and Indie figures I've got around the house.

The 25th Joes have a small ball socket that is tiny compared to both the Star Wars and Indie toys.

The Indie figures seem to have a middle of the road size ball socket being larger than the Joes but smaller than the Star Wars figures.

Star Wars male figures have a huge ball socket when you compare them to both the Joes and Indie figures.

Why Hasbro couldn't just go with one universal size is a bit odd, so expect to do a little bit of work to swap heads around. Might get lucky with some of the tiner necked Star Wars figures and the Indie line since the Star Wars figures seem to have some different sized sockets but I don't know how often you can get that lucky.

i doubt anyone would say there favorite is mutt with leather jacket and i wouldnt either,plus i hate shia.
but actually i have been wishing someone made a 50s rocker or greaser guy for awhile now to use for my little 50s diner ive been working on for ever.so i may actually end up getting several of this figure to make into various 50s gang dudes.and a few more just for the jackets to make bikers or punks out of.
see mutt with my other JD'S.

and a swap of head and jackets with a dreadnok i though was funny.
