NECA ROCKY & Apollo Figures

[Voorhees27]

I think the weakest figure in my Rocky collection is BD Drago. He looks so far removed from the prototype. More than any other in the series.
They went with next to nothing on the face paint. Maybe a little more paint application would have been the magic!!!

Whaaat? BD Drago looks incredible, the paint and sculpt are top notch, my only complaint would be that he's not very Battle damaged. The weakest figure imo has been Rocky IV Rocky.

Yeah. BD Drago is one of my favorites. Do you own the Rocky from part 1 (clean version) Bo?

I know right. Both undamaged likenesses for series 1 sucked.


I don't own any of series 1. Though I do think the ToysRus Battle damaged Rocky and Apollo two-pack (with the new plastic they use) look great.

best figure has got to be BD Lang, spot on.

It's really just a variant angry headsculpt, not battle damage.

But it looks spot on. NECA really can put out some great headsculpts when they want too.

The Clubber Lang's are the only reason I decided to open any. Beautiful sculpts for NECA.

Definitely the best sculpt(s) out of the entire line.

I'm still waiting on my 2 Apollo BD figures to arrive. Thats the last figure I plan on opening. I really liked the BD Apollo.

I never said anything about it not being a great sculpt, it is just not Battle Damaged, as the user mentioned.

I am currently on the hunt for a blue trunks Clubber Lang and already have Italian Stallion Rocky and black trunks Clubber, this is by far the best wave in this line from Neca and Clubber(both versions) is probally the best human likeness done by them to date..really liked the Kiefer Sutherland likness on TLB David figure as well.

Do you have any FYE's in your area? If so id check there, the one I went to had two or three Blue shorts Clubber Langs.

 

[Valfar]

I'm in Toronto Canada, most places that have him are downtown and i don't feel like driving down there, **** that noise..might just order online or see if my local comic shop will order another case, or hell i might check Spencers.

okay...but I'm sure everyone knew what I meant. If you got to be picky about it, the ANGRY Lang head sculpt.

Just curious, what is FYE?

Sorry guy, don't take that the wrong way..i wasn't trying to be a smug prick when i replied to your message.

You never know, maybe someone read your post then goes out looking for BD Clubber or calls around and gets told no over the phone because, there is no BD Clubber...Clubber during that scene the figure is taken from, hardly broke a sweat because he just destroyed Rocky..love how the Blue Trunks figure headsculpt is taken from that slow motion left cross scene where he finishes off Rocky.

For Your Entertainment, it's an entertainment merchandise chain in American malls, they mainly sell music, movies and video games but they try to draw folks in so they sell some NECA figures and stuff like that as well.

it's fine, when it comes to rocky figures, we all have the eye of the tiger

I rewatched rocky III last night so I know what you mean by the blue trunks. During the final match, his trunks were definitely more black than the blue we got. I would have thought the angry sculpt would come from the final fight.

Oh ok. I wish we had more options up here in the great white north Hell not even TRU (an American company) carries most NECA figures here. Well unless it's kiddie related.

I have options and it's still not easy. Went to Toys R Us today to return Rocky, apparently for some stupid reason, the blood version and clean version share a code in the system, so unless the guy packing the shipment pays attention to which one he needs to get, he could do like he did and grab the wrong one and think he has the right thing. I could only get a store credit so I'm trying a new order for him, online shows only the clean one available now, so hopefully this time it works out, if not, I'll get another Terminator with the money and get Rocky off Amazon.

Best we get are the walking dead figures and that stupid glow in the dark NECA robocop
