    River Chase Review

    Written by (AFOL , rhodium-rated reviewer) in United States,

    Following the path of collecting up all of the Indiana Jones theme sets, this was a fairly easy one to pick up at an original retailing price of $19.99 off store shelves. I'd have to say too that the number of minifigures and build is worth the experience too.

    With the minifigures, you get four of them - Indiana Jones (which can be repetitive given he's in all the sets), Marion (who also appears in the Fight on the Flying Wing set), and then 2 Russians. Plus, you get an alligator and two snakes. They didn't really appear in the movie, but they make for a good addition to the set.

    After that you've got three builds. 1) Is that amphibious jeep which looks cool and a solid, fun build to make. 2) Then you've got the raft, it's mainly one piece with additions for the search light, gun mount and motor on the end. 3) Is the tree outpost that a russian sits in, keeping watch or guard. The net on the tree has a pole you can push from behind to make it drop down on a boat passing by.

    In all it's a fun set and for someone collecting up the Indiana Jones sets, it was well worth getting and then putting together.

  • River Chase

    Written by (Unspecified) in United States,

    This is one of my favorite scenes from IJ4. This is a great set, but I do not recall a raft being in the scene. Now for the Pros and Cons.

    PROS:
    2 Russians
    Rubber raft-somewhat rare
    Alligator/Crocodile
    Peru Marion
    Net
    Nice ammo boxes on machine guns
    Uzi-looking gun

    CONS:
    ANOTHER Indy
    Seats in truck can't fit 2 figs properly
    Ammo boxes on revolvers?

    Otherwise, I highly suggest you buy this set, it's completely worth the $20. It is also a great army builder.

  • A Great Addition!

    Written by (Unspecified , gold-rated reviewer) in Ireland,

    This set is really cool! I got it last year for my Birthday and loved it to pieces (Pun... kinda intended). The whole set doesn't really come from the Indy film, but fits in nicely with other Indy sets. I would highly recommend it as you get a boat, tree, and truck (Can fit 4 people on all together)
    OK, onto the Pro(s) and Con(s):
    Pros:
    - Flinging net. Can activate when you push a thing at the back.
    - Brilliant boat/truck thing. It looks a lot like the movie's one!
    - On the Truck/Boat there is a Machine Rifle, a spade, and other things.
    - The boat has two brown ores and a light.
    - Great Animals!
    Cons:
    None!

    All and all good set, get it quick before it goes!
    Hope you found this useful.

    HQuiff.
