Don't know if this was mentioned before (I'm new to the forum), but
there is an online customizer that makes a pretty good 12" Indy
figure (AND his dad!):

The figure is not listed, but it is pictured in the 'group shot' on
the front page. I believe they're $150 a piece (not as detailed, but cheaper than Toys McCoy) + shipping.

It takes about 4-6 weeks to make each figure. The guy uses either a GI Joe or 21st Century Toys body for this figure. Clothes and accessories are handmade (pouch, holster, gun) or 'weathered' (jacket, boots).

For the price, this guy does excellent work, IMHO. Before I saw this figure, I thought about just getting a head (or a Han Solo figure) and making the figure myself, clothes and all. This saves me the time and trouble.

And yes, I do have one:

with a story, too:

Hope this helps those of you looking for 12" Indys.

Take care.
