Not bad at all for a jacket that's only 1.5 inches long! They did their homework!

That's a beautiful jacket. Is it a Wested?
How is the idol just floating there?

It probably has a magnet inside which sticks to another magnet of opposite polarity inside of Indy's arm. Nice jacket details. But Indy looks like he's 12.

Look at the size of that holster!

He must come with a .357 magnum. "Dirty Indy".

There was no other way to get the Idol into his hands, so I had to tuck it under his arm. But in all seriousness to the jacket section, I am very impressed with the level of detail they gave this figure's gear. And the holster might be big, but it "works" and has the accurate double lines along the flap edge!

Hasbro actually made a Han Solo figure with a functional leg holster that you could slip the blaster into. It has a little slot where the sight goes in, and the handle protrudes from the top. I'm sure they could engineer an Indiana Jones figure with a flap holster, albeit scaled to a more worldly size, if they really cared to. It will be a glorious day for this Crusade afficianado if they make a LC Indy figure with authentically-sculpted Webley MK-VI revolver, and authentic distressing on the jacket.

what's great, too, is that not only is it a 'working' flap holster, but it has the teeny-tiny hole and peg that goes through it to keep it closed!

Yeah, I mean despite the compromises due to scale and playability, this is overall an excellent Indiana Jones figure due to its attention to gear detail. Just the accurate color tonalities of the jacket's weathering impresses me immensely.
