It will cost you $99. Everyone will know you are a nerd pretending to be a hero, but who cares right? We’ve You’ve been laughed at your whole life anyway. Tip: Never EVER ask your wife for sex while wearing a fedora and asking her to dress up like a Nazi chick because you want to raid her ark. It’s all good until you bring the whip out…And it turns on you. You’d be surprised how creative an angry woman with a whip can get.

The new Indiana Jones film will hit theaters in less than a month. Now you can get yourself a toy version of Indy’s most famous accessory. The bull whip. “Throw me the idol, I’ll throw you the whip.”

Watch your kid break every damn thing in your house, while he’s pretending to be an archaeologist.

Yes, it’s lame. Not dangerous at all. It’s a three foot soft whip with a plastic handle that plays authentic whip-cracking sound effects as you swing it, and the well-known Indiana Jones theme music. A switch on the handle turns the sounds on and off, and it even features a carrying strap for attaching it to your belt. It will cost you $26.99.

I personally was hoping for something a bit more dangerous.

The good folks behind the Indiana Jones movies have posted at their Web site an official poster for the upcoming Crystal Skull movie. Doesn’t it look old school and sweet?

Indiana Jones fans have lots of reasons to enjoy 2008. Not only is there a new trailer for the upcoming Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie but now we also have new special editions of the first three movies to look forward to on DVD come May 13.

Lucasfilm and Paramount plans to release Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade both as standalone special edition DVDs and also as part of a boxed set. All three have been originally restored and remastered and the discs will include bonus features which “rovide never-before-seen explorations of the making of these classic movies and showcase the characters, action and extraordinary visual effects that have made the movies indelible cinematic treasures.”

Now what would be really cool is if Lucas does a Indiana Jones marathon whereby you can watch all four movies back back. How sweet would that be?

That sounds like a sexual reference in a Heavy Metal song, minus the Hasbro part.

I first told you about Hasbro’s new line of Mighty Muggs toys last week. Well, Hasbro sent me a cool sample of none other then Spidey’s arch-rival Venom in Mighty Mugg form. I want to pass it on to a lucky reader.

Comment below before midnight on March 31st, for your chance to win him. Funniest comment wins! I want to hear some Mighty Muggs inspired comedy. Contest is open to anyone in the U.S.

These things are freakish and at the same time freakishly awesome, so it should be easy to make us laugh.

So am I, but that’s both a blessing and a curse. This new series of 6 inch toys by Hasbro, on the other hand, is totally cool. They come in Star Wars and Marvel characters and even Indiana Jones versions. Some of my favorites are Venom, Iron Man, Darth Maul and the Stormtrooper.

They are just plain cute and cuddly, but they also look like they could turn evil in a pinch too.

You may now wet yourself. The new Indy trailer is now online and I’m pleased to say that it looks awesome. This movie is going to rock! enjoy!

WTF? I don’t know about you, but I prefer Nazi’s in my Indy adventures. I want it filled to the brim with Nazis. Not because I don’t hate them, I do. That’s the point! They are a part of the world Indy lives in, and a part of world history. But the Politically Correct want to ignore all of the bad things in the world and pretend that Indy runs around collecting flowers and butterflies.

According to Computer & Videogames reading of EDGE magazine, the LEGO Indiana Jones games will also be sans swastika, just like the LEGO sets.

Developer Traveller’s Tales says that LEGO has replaced the Nazis with “an anonymous genocidal, occultist, trenchcoat-wearing master-race.”

WTF? That’s jut weird. What are they a race of Trech coated flashers bent on world domination?

The geek in me is sad…

Gizmodo got their hands on some official high resolution shots, prices and descriptions of the new LEGO diorama sets for Indiana Jones and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. They offer an exclusive look into the most-awaited movie of the year.

While the Legos are not Earth shattering, they do give away some of the film’s plot. Hopefully there’s more to it then what these Lego sets show us. Now I’m uncertain whether this will be a great Indy film. But I can say that I would like to watch a Lego version of Raiders after seeing these.

Get a sneak peek at Indy with this newly released image from the upcoming epic Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I must say Indy isn’t looking too bad, of course the quality of the image isn’t the best either. Regardless, the Indiana Jones series has always been a favorite of mine and I can’t wait to see this one. Be sure to check out the movie poster too.
