Indiana Jones and the LEGO Tie-In

Proving yet again that I'm the last to know, I only just read on The Disney Blog that LEGO will be releasing Indiana Jones-themed sets in conjunction with the new movie, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

According to the comments on Brickset, there will be four sets based on the original trilogy released in January 2008 and four sets based on the new movie released in May 2008.

Also, the same company that created the LEGO Star Wars games will be releasing an Indiana Jones title based the original trilogy some time next year.

As a LEGO fiend and a fan of Indy, I'm stoked! The anticipation of it all is almost too much to contain.

If I want any chance of having enough money to enjoy it all, I better start saving pennies now in a jar labeled "Indy Fund - Don't break until 2008. Not to be used for coffee/Skittles/hiking emergencies. No exceptions!"
