I thought the Rocky line was finished since we haven't got anything new in awhile, this is great news!

So are they gonna keep doing Rocky figures until they hit the last Rocky film? They're gonna need a bigger muscle body.

Cocoboloboy · Feb 15, 2008

I'm not completely sold on the likeness of this one compared to the last Rocky figure. It's still the version I most want though.

Hopefully a street version Rocky isn't too far away.

I love the Italian Stallion version offering but I'm not sold on the likeness 100%. I will say this though, I'm hoping that we get some Street Clothes Rocky and a Thunderlips figure soon...

YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im very surprised as well since i thought Hot Toys were done with Rocky.

MaulFan · Feb 15, 2008

I'm sold on the likeness, but the neck seems almost too long.

It's dissappointing that they're stuck on Rocky 3 though, wonder if it has anything to do with the license details.

DAMN! They sure got the hair right. LOL... :rotfl

The upper body is different that the already released ones, he is thicker and the arm muscles look better.

Rock83 · Feb 15, 2008

Maybe the figure is closer to a release than expected?According to this seller its allready available.

MaulFan · Feb 15, 2008

Well realistically, this figure isn't anything big to make. Same old Rocky body, hand, gloves, boots. Robe and short patterns already exist. So a new head, some different fabric and a little paint variance and walla, another Rocky.

Yeah but it isnt much to make different except the head on a Boxing figure.

No. I will wait for Toys2.net to get them, i'm serious about maybe getting 2 though, this figure is AMAZING!

I find is bizarre that some people here can find something wrong with it, its absolutely great! I have a feeling Yulli did the sculpt on this one too! Shes just an extremely talented person!

I don't know about you guys but this just made my day or maybe week!

We should see more Rambo's now, I think so anyway. Hot Toys must be in love with Stallone, they produce a ton of him so there must be a great connection there.
