Hello from Toy Anxiety!!

[MaulFan]

The knife burn he got in FB II in the prison camp. Left cheek. In Rambo III it's on the right cheek. In RAMBO, it's gone.

It's not gone in Rambo, but it is like Rambo 3 and not 2.

The first photo shows it on his left cheek like in Rambo 2.

That's why I missed it. It looks like a wrinkle vs. the vertical scar it should be.

You know Rambo has aged, right?

You know Rambo has aged, right?

You do realize that aging doesn't cause a facial scar to completely change locations, right?

 

[kl241]

Maybe he turned the other cheek.

Maybe he turned the other cheek.

That would explain his inner torment and twitchy demeanor.

That is not the direction it goes in. In Rambo 2, the scar is mad from the top of his cheek bone with the knife dragging down and back, the Rambo 3/4 scar almost follows along the contour of his cheek bone.

That's why I missed it. It looks like a wrinkle vs. the vertical scar it should be.

It's really not prominent, and I think they didn't even bother putting it on for the battle scenes once he starts getting all dirty. If I weren't a Rambo nut looking for it, I probably never would have spotted it, most shots showing that side of his face with it make it hard to distinguish from wrinkles.

The body scars also changed from First Blood through Rambo 3, never the same twice, except his arm scar, that was pretty consistent between Rambo 2 and 3.

Which I think of as a HUGE mistake/oversight. When he's in the police station in FB and they point out all the scars, they tell a story without having to use words and are part of who Rambo is. Overlooking that takes away from the character as does changing/forgetting additional scars we've seen him get throughout the course of the films.

Tell that to Sly not TA.

Any chance of seeing another Vader parted out?

Tried PMing you, but your box is full. What Vader parts you looking for?

As well as the muscle body being released to the masses, I'd like to see a head set like DML used to do. A Marcus Wright would be a must!!

There is the Perseus head coming out.

Sideshow has already shot these head sets down because heads are on of the most expensive parts in making a new figure. They already have the buck body they use (most of the time) so its mainly the head that eats up costs.

There is the Perseus head coming out.

It's quite funny how many people don't put 2 and 2 together.

 

[Ironman1188]

I know Perseus is coming out but the Marcus head was a one piece head & neck. Perseus requires a different body than what I already have set up awaiting the Marcus sculpt.

You could always just pick up the TT advanced neck?

TA, I was wondering what you do with the boxes of the figures you break down. Would you consider selling them? I can think of several that I would like to replace due to shipping damage.
