Another creature you can identify with Indy. Good one Rob. Robin.

Never saw a Scorpion in all my trips to Egypt Rob, but did once, just a couple of months after the revolution there in 2011, when laws were pretty lax, see a local doing a snake charmers street show with two Cobras, I can assure you I gave that as wide a birth as possible. I'm with Jones, I hate snakes !

I remember on a tour in Thailand the local guide ate a fried Scorpion at a street market, it sounded crispy !

Snakes and scorpions. All we need now are big hairy spiders.

Thanks fellas. This one was actually inspired from an episode of Johnny Quest called, Curse of Anubis.
Spiders, hmmm...

So the bad guy is an Arabic Egyptologist who wants to frame Dr. Quest for steeling the Statue of Anubis? Sim sim salabim! Johnny Quest is my son and my favorite cartoon! You might have noticed that my avatar is Race Bannon.

You remember your Quest episodes quite well, Louis. One of the better episodes in fact. Ahmed Kareem was the villain but suffered the "Curse of Anubis" in the end.

Here's one for you, a "little treasure" I picked up several years ago:

Brilliant Rob. Paul

Thanks much Paul.

Great stuff, Paul!

When my kids were little, we watched the DVD of the original Johnny Quest series pretty much every day. I built garage model kits of the characters, and, because the action figures prototypes were advertised, but never released, I made my kids 1:6 scale action figures of Johnny, Hadji, Race and Dr. Quest (I made the heads of the dolls myself, then was able to obtain the prototype heads from the original doll sculptor, but chose my heads for Johnny and Hadji and used the prototype heads for Race and Dr. Quest):

Nice one Louis.

 

[WesternOutlaw]

That's really cool, Louis (and nicely done). How fun!
Imagine if TG created a set of these figures...

Here's a little poster card I created a few years back with a few Playmobil items:

Hey Louis, I'm looking at Jonny and Hadji's head sculpts. How the heck did you make these? They're so realistic.
