New Indiana Jones Figure Has Melting Face Action

Figure Comes With Regular, Melting Faces Of Toht

UPDATED: 9:07 am PDT September 3, 2009

One of Indiana Jones' biggest villains has made his debut as an action figure … with a special feature true to his iconic appearance at the end of "Raiders of the Lost Ark."

Sideshow Collectibles has released a 12-inch figure of Major Arnold Toht, the Nazi henchman whose face melts off as the lid of the Ark of the Covenant is removed near the conclusion of the 1981 action adventure classic.

The figure also comes with a head of Toht, featuring the likeness of late actor Ronald Lacey, and a variety of accessories including a hot poker, collapsible coat hanger and luger pistol. The exclusive edition of the figure comes with a 1:6 scale replica of the Ark.

Since the release of "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" last year, Sideshow has produced figures and prop replicas from three of the Indiana Jones films, including two versions of Indy (Harrison Ford), as well as Belloq (Paul Freeman) from "Raiders of the Lost Ark." Next in line is Dr. Henry Jones (Sean Connery) from "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade."

And if you want to create your own adventure, Sideshow has in the works a 1:1 scale replica of the Fertility Idol from "Raiders of the Lost Ark."
