good point. i didn’t describe the adventurer fig, he’s got dark brown pants, suspenders and a tanktop t-shirt. he’s unshaven, got a smirk and the t-shirt has a big old brown stain on the front (it’s nicely detailed two-sided torso print)...fits your description perfectly of a bum in front of the telly.

Gesundheit!

Seriously though, thanks for the clarification and parts references. I know there’s a name for the peaked hat I have in mind but couldn’t for the life of me think of that either.

   The altar/shrine is a very basic construction of maybe 25-30 pieces that features a standing staff. A small rod fitted behind the center of the staff can be ‘flicked’ to knock the staff out of place (ooh, I hope I can contain my excitement!).

LEGO’s “playability” in this feature fell pretty flat. When I tried to flick the staff over, the axle just lamely pushed it to the side without it being dislodged. I didn’t really mind though, as I wanted that forked staff to go with the serpent scepter that came with the Series #2 MF Pharaoh.

   The back of the box shows that the staff is one of a series of objects to be collected. Other objects found in the other sets include items such as scarab shield, headdress, gem and scimitar.

   This set came in at around $10.00 which is pretty reasonable (figuring the current minifig value at around $3.00 plus a motorcycle) and will make for a must-have purchase when they get discounted.

Absolutely! It’s a great selection of parts for the price.

You know, it’s a darn shame that this didn’t get more comments. I’m sorry I missed it and only happened to stumble upon it almost three years after you posted!

A great scene--tons of detail and really nice staging.

Thanks for sharing!


Dave!

They may be slow, uncomfortable and leak oil, but at least they have character:

A few pics of the assembled set.

The box illustration for Indy’s expression does not match the minifig included. Dramatic license.
