article):

Three worldwide blockbuster films, and the highly anticipated May 2008
premiere of the new Indiana Jones movie, will provide inspiration for a
series of highly iconic and action-packed build-and-play adventures of the
rogue archaeologist and hero.
“There is such a natural synergy between Lucasfilm and LEGO enthusiasts of
all ages that makes combining our stories with the LEGO play pattern an easy
decision,” said Howard Roffman, President of Lucas Licensing. “We are
thrilled to have a chance to share the history and success of LEGO Star Wars
with another Lucas franchise.”

Hmm. I expected Indy to look a little more like Han Solo...
This is very cool news!

Well, he does. Sort of. They both have the same roundish facial structure, a
rather unnoticable nose (even if you try to look for it, it’s so unnoticable
that you’ll fail to do so), and brown eyebrows. Indy has stubble, though, which
some might say is the reason he fails to keep the same woman around from one
movie to the next, compared to Han who practically ends up married by the end of
his trilogy (others would say it’s part of what makes Indiana Jones the manliest
man’s man in movies, while Han Solo ended up getting bumped to third by that
British guy in the tux).
