12/06/06, 2:27pm EST

Besides an Indy video game and that "Adventure Kermit" figure, there hasn't been any Indiana Jones merchandise available on StarWarsShop -- Lucasfilm's official online store -- in years.
StarWarsShopBut that time has changed as StarWarsShop will be offering six new Indiana Jones baseball caps sporting styles and designs in the spirit of the adventure hero. While four of the caps feature the classic fedora and whip logo on a brass patch with suede trim, two more include the signature Indy clipper in flight over a leather-trimmed bill. All styles feature Velcro straps.

Article on unproduced Indy prop replicas
01/08/06, 1:03pm EST

Indiana Jones collectors site ThrowMeTheIdol.com has published a interesting article on licensed Indy prop replicas that were once proposed by Icons to Lucasfilm back in 1996.
In 1995 Icons prepared to secure an Indiana Jones license. It seemed a natural property to base Film replicas of historic icons on.
During Icons first trip to Skywalker Ranch in 1996 to conduct extensive product development in the famous Lucas Film Archives warehouse, detailed photographs and video were taken from the Indiana Jones Trilogy.
Icons tracked down the original mold and master for "The Holy Grail" used during the production of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade in the United Kingdom...

Head over to ThrowMeTheIdol.com to read the full prop replicas article and to view some prototype images.

A big thanks to Les David for the excellent article.
