Description

Raiders of the Lost Ark Indiana Jones AFA 85 ** 3rd Highest Grade ** (Kenner, 1982). This example features the Indiana Jones action figure from Kenner's Raiders of the Lost Ark line, released in 1982 to coincide with the film's continued popularity following its theatrical run. The line represents one of Kenner's shortest-lived licensed action figure series of the era, produced briefly before being discontinued, which has made high-grade survivors increasingly scarce. The figure is encased and graded by AFA at 85 NM+, with subgrades of C80 B85 F85. According to AFA population data, this example ranks as the 3rd highest graded Indiana Jones figure from the Raiders of the Lost Ark line. The grading reflects strong overall preservation across all components, particularly notable given the line's susceptibility to card and bubble wear. Kenner's Raiders of the Lost Ark figures occupy a distinct place within early-1980s licensed toy production, bridging the gap between Kenner's science-fiction dominance and its exploration of cinematic adventure properties. With its high grade, favorable subgrades, and limited production context, this example will appeal to collectors focused on condition-driven Kenner material and early licensed action figure lines.
