Indiana Jones is the action-adventure equivalent of Star Wars, IMHO, because only the original first three movies were the most memorable. And if you are a fan of the first three movies, namely, Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989), then you are going dig the new LEGO Indiana Jones sets.
Unfortunately, though, LEGO only has the first and third movies covered for now. So, yeah, nothing on Temple of Doom for now. However, as noted from the SKU, there is a 77014 set which is a Temple of Doom set. It is unclear which scene it will be based on. It will be dope if it is based on the mine cart scene. Keeping going for the official details of each set.
