Post by Colonel Vogel »

I was looking at a pic and noticed Toht's hat is very similar to Indy's.... :-k

I'm not certain, but I think Toht's hat also has a bound edge to it, making it VERY un-Indy. :junior: -IJ

I've had this Toht fedora from Optimo for about 3 years now and it's still my favorite wear-all-around fedora. I supplied Graham with several poor screen grabs from the movie (before the dvd) and as many pics I had of the hat and they did a great job on it. It does have a bound edge, slightly smaller crown and block shape but it's also in lightweight felt. The bottom pic shows it with my two Indy Optimos. The Indy on the left had the ribbon changed out to the same one on the right soon after this pic was taken.

This is my first post, so Hello Everybody. I just had to get my start on this thread. I always thought Toht was the coolest Indy bad-guy... kind of the Boba Fett of the Indy series, in my opinion. I could see myself going for Toht gear... the cool leather coat, the sharp suit, the hat. I have one black fedora, and I picked it because it reminded my of Toht's.

Anyway, this place is really cool. I don't know why I waited so long to come here.

Agent5, I have to tip my AB to your Indy Optimos. Those are a couple of fine looking hats.
The Toht's fedora is pretty sweet, too. Although you look a little like a psychotic Andrew McCarthy in that photo. :lol:
Just playin' :lol:

Thanks guys, and thanks for the link, VP.

That's a good deal on the MP-40. It comes fully assembled and I had to assemble mine all by myself with Japanese directions. Took me about 4 hours.

I'll take the Andrew McCarthy comment. Thanks. It coulda been worse. It coulda been Taylor Hicks or something. :lol:
