NECA Standard and Fight Damaged Rocky Figures In-Package

nice looking figures, too bad they have the plastic tye right across the chest, takes away from the overall moc look, but nice none the less.

Do I have to just come out and say it? Stalone looks fat. For NECA, this isn't that great. The prototype shots were fantastic, but the retail versions just lack muscle detail.

Have you watched Rocky recently? In the original (and sequel), Rock sure isn't John Rambo. He didn't rip himself up until he fought the Russian.

You know what, I forgot about that. It's been awhile since I saw that movie. They need a two pack with him and hulk hogan

The battle damaged one looks really nice.

If they make a Thunderlips (Hogan) or a Cluber Lang I might loose my mind.

..and if you want a laugh, watch Rocky 3 again and take note at how well groomed he is, and how well he speaks,

Agreed. From the images I've seen the beat up Rocky & and not-beaten Apollo are the ones to own.

The beat up Rocky looks just like him. The regular one doesn't look like Rocky Balboa to me at all.

Rupo · 01-07-2012, 06:10 PM

The first one is Rocky, the second one looks like an extra from the movie...

the articulation is just horrible.

Compared to all of the other articulated Neca figures?

The head sculpts look pretty bad too me, but the one battle damaged Rocky is pretty funny. Rock looks real f#@ked up

Anyone spot these yet? BBTS' eta says Feb, but it seems like these Neca figs usually start popping up sooner than later.

I might be trekking out to a Toys "R" Us tonight. If I spot them, I'll definitely snap a shot to post here.

I stopped at the South Philly/Oregon Ave TRU today... nada, but they cleared a ton of space in the collector's aisle, so somethings coming.

BlackMagnus · 01-27-2012, 03:33 PM

There hasn't been any update on Twitter yet so I'd imagine the release is still sometime in late Feb.

trebleshot · 01-28-2012, 10:26 PM

I was at a TRU earlier tonight and didn't see them.

I will say the beaten-up version does look a lot better. Then again, that look is what most people associate with the most used quote from that film: Adrian!

Checked Franklin Mills and Oxford Valley stores. No luck at either.
