Grab your bullwhips and fedoras, Indy is finally coming to blu-ray! [VIDEO]

Never mind that the fourth film in the franchise released on blu-ray, Indiana Jones is really coming to blu-ray! The Complete Indiana Jones box set will be in eager geeks’ paws this fall and will include the original fan favorite trilogy plus the 2008 Crystal Skull film packed into what I assume will be a sweet box. Young Indy fans are out of luck, no mention of the critically acclaimed television series for the “Complete” collection. Also included will be tons of special features from the famed archeologist’s storied career as well as some new tantalizing bits for the hard core fan in all of us!

Amazon already has a pre-order page up for the set with a price tag of $74.99 ($25 off list!) for the eager beaver geeks out there. Most excellent price for a classic franchise’s first hit to blu-ray! Even if you hated the Crystal Skull, you still get Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom and The Last Crusade -finally- on the high def format it deserves!

Hit the break for the full press release and a video for Raiders, just for that nostalgia factor. Any geeks out there as happy as I am? Break it down in the comments!
