While Lego has only produced a few official Indiana Jones sets, other brands like Tocmoc have filled the gaps with unofficial brick-building kits like the Temple of the Holy Grail playset. The 2,388-piece display is not officially Indiana Jones-themed, but it's clear that this is cribbing from the ruins where The Last Crusade's climax occurs.
