Would have prefered to get this "Rocky in Training" figure in their standard 6" Rocky line. I have no interest in 8" Mego-styled figures.

So is NECA's 6" Rocky line pretty much done now? No more new figures for it? I thought NECA hinted a year or more ago that a Mickey figure was in the works. A Mickey/Rocky in Training 2-pack would have been a nice TRU exclusive. I guess all we get is a silly video game repaint of Rocky, huh?

Looks pretty good for a retro-style figure, but their decision to use that facial expression is a little odd.

I think they were going for the "Yo" or "freezing" in the meat locker look. But I much prefer more static facial expressions unless it's something very essential to the look.
