Ok, we can finally call the new hat something other than the "Indy 4 hat"

We have the Raiders Fedora, the Temple Taper, the Last Crusade Lid, and now the Kingdom Crown. :wink:

Discuss...ANYTHING BUT VENDORS! Just a reminder.

That's not a KotCS Bash? The KotCS is a "RKF" bash!

Here...for those that are like myself and not really well versed on the different styles of Indy Fedoras throughout the trilogy i found some fairly good representations of each hat so you can compare. If some of you have better screen caps of the hats please add them as i would like to really see how these fedoras compare to each other.

I always liked this hat. It has lots of character. I especially like the brim curl on it. Betcha it's the same hat, but this angle makes it look different. :wink:

I have to agree with G on this one. The "Tank rescue hat" looks like a completely different hat to me, and I also have to add that it does appeal to me more than the Grail Temple hat, which I don't really like. Now, if we're talking "same hat, different scene" with LC, then I think the Tank rescue hat is the same one we see Ford wear at the very end of the motorcycle scene (not during the chase itself, but the scene at the crossroads) and is also the hat worn throughout the plane chase (with the exception of inside the tunnel, which was an interior shot filmed later) and through the streets in Iskinderun in Sallah's borrowed car, as well as the scenes in the desert before the tank chase. Just my opinions, based on my own observations, of course. :wink:

Anyways, that hat is easily my favorite LC style.

ydam....you de man!

there was speculation that the tank rescue hat is the same as the tod bridge hat. you've put them side by side for a nice comparison. they do look pretty darn close don't they. further speculation is that both of these are HJ's and if so.....the TOD hj is a leftover from raiders.

all rumor based on observations from the good folks here but we have no info to refute the statements......so, i'll buy that for $1 :D

G, you know I play fair, which is why I left your account active and instead emptied your bank account. :wink: Yeah, I agree the two are different hats, but I said that only because the same hat can look different just depending on how he put it on his head, yet we sometimes think they're always different hats. I still stand by my love for this hat, though:

:lol: I never said it was my favorite, but I do like the looks of this hat. I think my favourite is a combination between the idol and Well of Souls hat from Raiders, and the motorcycle hat from LC. So I guess if the IJ4 hat looks to be a Raiders/LC hybrid, then THAT's my favourite! :D

MJ, I love your avatar. I can't look at Buford T. Justice and not laugh. I always think of two scenes that crack me up. :rolling:

One is when he has the kids stopped and is talking to them, walks behind one and kicks him square in the seat of the pants and says, "Now, THAT was an attention getter!" :shock:

The other is when he looks at his son, after Junior did something else stupid, and says, "Junior, there is NO WAY that you came from my loins. Remind me when we get home to punch your momma right in the mouth!" [-( :-0

Thanks. I've gotten a few comments 'bout ol' Buford. I'm gonna have to keep him for awhile...
