The TOD hat is growing on me...

Post by IndyFrench »

Guys and gals,

I'm still a fan and devotee of the Raiders Cairo/Truck Chase hat (have an AB in that style), but in recent weeks, for some reason, the TOD Bridge hat (especially in the famous still of Indy with the knife in one hand and whip in the other (from the cover of the read-a-long cassette book) is just growing on me!

I know the TOD hat gets kicked around a lot and it is very inconsistent in the film, but the bridge hat is getting cooler and cooler in my eyes. I have another Cairo AB on order right now...but I confess I'm going to have to sit on my hands if this keeps up because otherwise I might write Steve and ask for the Bridge hat instead.

Steve, if you're reading this, I'm still officially signed up for another Cairo hat.

I really like the bridge scene hat. Another good one is the campfire hat. I watched LC last night and darned if I almost liked several bashes on there.. mostly the motorcycle chase and tank scenes [after swearing up and down I didn't like the LC hat too much] But my head shape will look better in a TOD style. Though I'd like to get a Raiders look sometime.

Yeah, I've never been a fan of LC bashes either...or brims. Especially the Grail Temple hat - That has to be the worst hat in the series, rivaling even the Tri-Plane hat in TOD. That Grail Temple hat is ALL CROWN and NO BRIM.

The TOD Bridge hat though.... Oh the decisions...

I'd totally wear the heroic pose during the mine scene hat, and also the bridge scene. Nothing wrong with those hats in my opinion.

I've worn party hats that wouldn't put your eye out.
