![]() Though there aren't any spiders that easily latch onto the minifigure, the back of Satipo's body has some spiders painted on it. Joining Indy is Satipo, who can hold a flaming torch, as well as the walking stick that allows characters to swing across the deadly pit. He also comes with a satchel and a whip, as well as the sandbag that he uses to swap out for the idol. Of course, there's Indiana Jones, whose hat and hair are one piece that you place on top of the figure's head instead of putting the hat and hair on separately. It's a slick little piece of engineering that hides the seams of the mechanics much better than the previous incarnation. ![]() With a quick turn of that aforementioned skull knob, the boulder enters a rapid, controlled roll down a little gear track until it stops at the bottom. The Technic pieces allow the boulder, which you actually build rather than being given a single plastic, gray sphere, to be locked in and propped up towards the top of the set. Of course, it's the rolling boulder that's the star of this section. There are also some spiders creeping about! Plus, there are additional stone faces on the side of pillars, not to mention an actual skeleton just hanging out after a failed attempt to retrieve the idol. The same can be said for the stalagmites coming out of the ground. These are situated in a way that feels more organic than the original set, like they're growing out of the stone structures as opposed to being slapped onto the rocky surfaces. You'll also find a lot of greenery throughout, including various vines, leaves, and plant pieces with different shades of green. Taking a look at the actual diorama set-up in this first section, it's clear that there's a lot of creative use of simple LEGO pieces to create the jagged and curved stone edges within the temple itself. Each of the three sections has those knobs, as well as pieces with stone patterns that add a nice touch. The knob that you twist in order to activate the boulder also has a skull graphic. There are also little brick skulls that stick out of the base, adding to the stylish look of the set. But beyond that, the front of each base has been given some artistic flourishes to make it feel like it blends in with the aesthetic of the temple itself. In this particular section, it's the boulder that rolls after Indiana Jones as he attempts escape with the idol. Each platform on top of which the scene unfolds hides some of the Technic pieces that activate the action elements of the playset. But before we get to that, let's just appreciate the detail that's already being put into this set.įirst of all, the base on which the entire diorama is built serves up both function and style. This is also where one of the more iconic moments from the entire Indiana Jones franchise takes place. So we've got some scheduling issues, a few script things still to do, but we're determined to get it right before we get it made.The first section of the build is the entrance to the temple. Well, we're not going to make another Indiana Jones unless we're in a position to kill it. I think they're used to a degree of disappointment when you revisit - I mean certainly the Marvel movies have made a spectacular example of success that worked the other way around. "I want to give them something they didn't anticipate seeing. "I don't really want to give them what they want to see," Ford said of the film in a 2020 interview.
