For some reason I hear a lot of people saying they want a regular version of a figure and not the CVG version, except NECA already made the regular version prior, and the CVG figure is just a repaint of that. The only figure that hada CVG before the regular was Batman and that's because originally DC wouldn't let them do a regular version.
I know all about the Video Game releases vs. the Movie releases. It's just that I'm not into the video game shading of the figures, but I do like their packaging.
As for the Rocky movie figures there was just something about the plastic of the skin tone used for Stallone that I didn't like. I feel the same way about his Rambo figures as well.
As for the flag I don't recall it being released during the movie line. I really like the look and pose with the flag, but like I said before the video game shading ruins the rest of the figure for me. I actually like the skin tone on this figure though because it makes it look more like an action figure than it does a realistic interpretation.
Hopefully the shading will come off with some rubbing alcohol and not ruin the rest of the figure's paint.
