If I can ever get the duo of this at a price I feel comfortable with, I might go for this. I never thought I'd say that..... Just needs that new hat and the cool accessories.

For those who are interested, here's a side-by-side photo of the 3D printed custom Raiders hat (this is the current one that is too big and has too much prominent texture on it) alongside the JND Last Crusade Fedora.
I'm happy to report that the hat is currently being worked on and the texture has been reduced to look very accurate and the sizing is being worked on too. Hopefully I'll be able to get a test print done soon so I can try it out on the JND Indy head. We're putting the sweatband detail in (like JND did on theirs).

You can really see the difference.

I'm not sure that we'll ever get anything as good as this in the future. It sure will be difficult to top.
The sculpting of the anatomy under the "skin" is phenomenal. It looks like there's actual muscle tissue and bone structure under the "skin" The more I look at it, the more I applaud the artist who did the portrait.

Exactly what I’ve been saying for months! This is the best you’re going to get in this lifetime…

You have indeed and now that I've got it in hand (despite the frustrations about where it could have been improved), it IS fantastic and FAR better than ANY other Indy figure I've owned (all difference scales) over the past 30 years.

It's such a fantastic likeness from these viewing angles.
