: : You're in for a big damn treat, David; I collect 1/6th scale toys, and Indy is, by far, the baddest of the bad and the bluest of the blue. Have fun with it! And I'm glad to hear you seem to plan on taking him out of the box, and displaying him. Toys are meant to be played with; doesn't anyone watch TOY STORY 2? ;-) Anyone who buys toys and keeps them in the box doens't collect toys; they collect BOXES. Boxes they let let someone else ascribe value to...

: : As far as displying and stuff, I use the Cotswold ELite Brigade doll stand (it's this black Y-shaped base that holds the figure up by his crotch; very inconspicuous). Indy comes with his own, but it's an old-style waist-hugger, and not good for his 1/6th scale Wested. You can get them at http://www.gijoeelite.com/f_home.asp. Just go into the upper right corner and hit SEARCH CATALOGUE. You can also order them from http://www.toy-syndicate.com/.

: : I just picked up 21st Century Toys German motorcycle with sidecar. It's a $59.99 toy, available at Toys R Us. Totally cool for the motorcycle chase in LAST CRUSADE. You can also get DRAGON's 1/6th scale Wermacht cavalry horse, too!

: : I've over a hudred of these little 1/6th scale snakes, too. TRU as well as the Nature Store, sell these little $2 bags of snakes. They're cheap, but cool. I also picked up a 1/6th scale hooded cobra at Pearl Art Supply; they have a nature toy aisle for some odd reason.

: : Other than that, you can get all sorts of Germans and German gear online, in case you need some bad guys for Indy to pound on. http://justicefighters.safeshopper.com/ carries all the 21st Century (ULTIMATE SOLDIER) and DRAGON WWII stuff, and they will even sell you bits and pieces. Need a black necktie for a Last Crusade Indy look? $2 gets you the black necktie from DRAGON's Panzer officer. Of course, you may already know all this stuff. I'm just offering what I know.

: : Let me know if you want a 1/6th scale Indiana Jones passport. A friend of mine just got his 12" Indy, and he made a 1935 passport, cover and inside, for his figure. Very easy to print out on glossy cardstock, and looks too frickin' cool. Post your e-mail address if you'd like me to e-mail you the JPEGS, man.

: : Best of luck, and have fun with that bad boy. Welcome to the party, pal!

: : NJ Hughes
