Ladies, what would you rather have: 12 inches of Jones or 3 inches of Jet Li?

Whip it, whip it good.

12 inches? Isn't that bigger than Dirk Diggler?

Looks more like the man who gave him the hat in Crusade. He looks deformed...ready for his role on Robot Chicken.

So, I assume the "Swords Man" is back for the Crystal Skull?

Why the F does his doll look exactly like Russel Crowe? Hmmm.....Me thinks they were looking to recast and changed their mind at the last minute! Russel Crowe in "Indiana Jones and The Foreign Bellhop", instead of a whip he'd have a rotary phone to throw at people! It's Boxoffice gold I tells ya!
