00:00These guys think we're running some kind of charity or something, that they can
00:03get off light. From here on in, do what I tell you to do because it's bad for my
00:07reputation. Here's a look at the Sly Stallone shop, the Rocky Legacy
00:10collection, Lone Shark Collector 1-6 scale collectible figure.
00:30Introducing the ultimate collectible for fans of the classic film Rocky. Standing
00:44tall at 12 inches, this action figure of the legendary character Rocky Balboa is
00:48a must-have for any fans collection. Designed with ultra-realistic details
00:51and for the first time ever endorsed and made under the official supervision of
00:55none other than Sylvester Stallone himself, this action figure captures the
00:58essence of the beloved character. Relive the iconic moments from the 1976 film
01:03with the impeccable recreation of Rocky Balboa. From his beloved dog Buckus,
01:07whose trademark fedora hat, this action figure is the perfect representation of
01:11the underdog boxer who stole the hearts of millions. Whether a longtime fan of
01:15Rocky franchise or a new timecomer to the world of boxing, this action figure
01:19is a timeless piece of a memorabilia that captures the spirit and
01:22determination of Rocky Balboa. From pet shop visitor to prize-winning fighter.
01:27Just before we get a closer look at the loan shark collector Rocky Balboa, a
01:30couple of people at first like to thank is the artistic team and product
01:34direction of the caustic plastic staff, not to mention Nick Cardasco, the founder
01:38of Sly Stallone shop, who provided the sample we could have a look at. The figure
01:42is already now shipping in August for $380. With his fedora on his head, the
01:47Italian stallion stands at about 12 and a quarter inches in height, while the
01:50brand-new figure is 31 centimeters tall. Of the things that come in clue with
01:55Rocky Balboa, the first thing perhaps we'll have a look at is the included
01:58index card. This artwork does look good and if it does look familiar to you, it
02:03happens to be the same thing that was featured on the front of the box as well.
02:06Similar Sly Stallone six-scale releases in the past, like John Rambo and Cobra,
02:10have also come in clue with index cards like this. Of course, specific to their
02:14own movie, this time the underdog is treated very nicely front and center,
02:18done very nicely in an almost watercolor paint. It isn't just though artwork alone
02:24that you're looking at. On the back of the card is really where credit needs to
02:27be given. The talented team behind the scenes of all the people responsible for
02:30making this figure a reality. Tippy top of the list, of course, we've got supervision
02:35and direction, Sylvester Stallone himself, executive producer and direction, Nick
02:39Cardasco from the Sly Stallone shop, artist direction and production
02:43management, Fabio Verrasi, 3D head sculpt, Inigo Gill, 3D accessory design, Sean
02:48Dabbs, master paint, Dario Barbera, and head sculpt likeness, direction and box
02:53artwork by John Rivoli. Of course, if you want to check out more, you can go to
02:57www.iconinart.com and sign down below, of course, Sylvester Stallone. Generally, in
03:05the past, when I've gotten six-scale releases of Sly, I usually like to
03:08display the cards along with them. I think it's just a nice way of displaying
03:11those with the figures. To move that off to the side, though, for at least right
03:15now, there's a lot of stuff, like I said, to cover off here. I'm just gonna move over
03:19though, Rocky, just for a second, just for a second, because I did also want to show
03:22you guys something I didn't show you at the beginning, when I was kind of
03:24unboxing everything, was, of course, the display base that the figure comes
03:28included with, as well. This is actually in a separate box, all on its own, and it
03:33does have, again, like the diorama stand, depicting, of course, the scene where
03:37Rocky kind of really does start his life in. One thing I really like
03:41about the display base isn't just the fact that it's detailed as well as it is.
03:45I mean, it has like little debris of garbage, you've got like little growings
03:49of weeds, a little bit what seems to be rust, there's some rust nicely done on
03:53the rails. This, by the way, is a separate piece, and when you're first assembling
03:56this, I'm just gonna take this off for right now, when you're looking at it
04:00and you get it out of the box, it comes in one piece like this, and then you get
04:03the main railings. The railings are hollow on the inside, because then you're
04:07basically gonna be attaching it onto this little ledge section right
04:10here. I didn't think that when I was putting this in, it was gonna be... I felt
04:14like the quarters were gonna be really, really tight, because you've got a few
04:17little weeds kind of growing so close to that, but you know, again, you're just
04:20gonna take it and it's gonna snap nicely in place. It's a fairly heavy bit of
04:24plastic as well, and probably one of the reasons why it's it's heavy, too, is that
04:28there's some magnets. You can, in fact, actually take Rocky's feet and you can
04:31attach them onto the display stand, and it's actually like right around here
04:36where you can kind of feel there's an attraction to Rocky's boots. A little bit
04:40further to the front, it doesn't seem like it's as strong, but it
04:44seems like it's the strongest like right around here. I just love the fact
04:47that they actually included the display base. Not only the display base is perfect
04:50then for Rocky, but it's also good as well for one of the other accessories
04:53that come included with the figure as well, and that being Butt-Kiss. Butt-Kiss,
04:57his little trusty dog, of course. It's nicely detailed. Sad to say, though, it
05:02doesn't have any poseability. I can understand, though, why they chose not to
05:06sculpt the dog with any bit of poseability or articulation, because I
05:09would feel like it would start to break up what would be, for all
05:13intents and purposes, a seamless looking mold. The head sculpt for Butt-Kiss is
05:17fantastic. Very much realistic to the dog that we see in the film. Coloring is done
05:22really nicely there as well. So, while the figure doesn't have... not that I
05:26would really even consider necessarily Butt-Kiss to be a figure. He is more an
05:29accessory. While, yes, it would have been nice if they could have had articulation,
05:33I can certainly understand why. On the undercarriage of the dog, you can see
05:38they've even airbrushed some nice white there on the undersides, not to show the
05:41dog's privates, but there is... it doesn't seem to be any magnets on Butt-Kiss. So,
05:46it's a case just really of taking the dog and putting it onto the display stand, and
05:49the dog's really going to just stay at the display stand while we look at the
05:52remaining accessories. One other thing that's fun that they included as well is
05:56not just the fact that there's a dish, but there's also things that are going
05:59to be going inside the dish. The figures come also included, or the figure comes
06:02included, with his tiny little turtles. The turtles are named Cuff and Link. I
06:08wouldn't be able to tell you really which one is which. Perhaps Link is the one
06:11that has the mouth open. They aren't identical turtles either. Funny, after
06:16actually the movie, Sly Stallone took the turtles home. As far as I know, Cuff
06:19and Link, although I don't know if he still calls them Cuff and Link, the
06:22turtles, as far as I know, are still alive to this day. They're nicely detailed as
06:26well. Again, you've got the underbody of the turtles in a much lighter kind
06:30of, I don't know, like brownish-beige, and some really nice decorative details to the
06:34tops of the shells. Again, when you're looking at them, they're not identical to
06:37one another either. One turtle very obviously does have a mouth open, while
06:41the other one is shut. Of course, you can take the turtles. I think Rocky has
06:45already taken, has he cleaned the dish? I mean, obviously, my sister used to have
06:50turtles, and it was one of the things you always want to really make sure that
06:52turtles, you clean the bowls regularly, because they get smelly really fast. But
06:57we're gonna do those. We're gonna take the turtles, and we're gonna put them
06:59inside their little tiny dishes. I mean, that's more than enough space, I feel, for
07:03turtles to get around. I mean, obviously, turtles, I mean, I don't know if you guys
07:06have seen, like, Stallone's turtles now. They're much bigger than they were when
07:09they were in the first in the movie, but you probably would want to maybe have a
07:13bowl bigger than what they are right now. Obviously, as they get a little bit
07:16bigger, you're gonna want to have yourself a bigger dish. Why are we talking
07:19so much time about the turtles? It's strange, though, that of all the
07:23accessories that the figure comes included with, he doesn't actually come
07:26included with, actually, turtle feed, turtle food. I think that would have been
07:29one welcomed accessory, but the figure doesn't come included with it. At least
07:32he does get cuff and link, though. He gets himself, speaking of links, I don't know
07:37if you would consider these links, but it does include some wrist peg links that,
07:41of course, can be swapped out. If you happen to have any cases where the
07:44wrist peg does break, then, of course, they got you covered. They give you an
07:48extra two that move those off to the side. The figure also comes included with
07:52his notebook and his pencil. Of course, the pencil, I'm sure I don't really have
07:57to necessarily tell you, but the pencil probably would be very easily lost if
07:59you're not too careful. The book doesn't have any printing, though, on the front,
08:03and it certainly doesn't have any printing on the back, but it does have a
08:06nicely sculpted coil on the side, on the spine. The book doesn't open, but one thing,
08:11though, is I've already taken the liberty of swapping out one of the many, many
08:14hands that come included with Rocky, and with the hands that he had right now, or
08:18at least this hand right here, you can actually take... and he does this, actually,
08:22in the movie, too. He sort of holds the book at one point in his hand, and
08:26then he also keeps himself like the pen, the pencil, kind of wedges it in between
08:29his thumb. I sort of started the review kind of like this. I'm sure maybe as I
08:35continue to display this guy after the video, I might end up displaying him,
08:39though, with the notebook, either in both hands with the pencil, or maybe even
08:42having the hand, the other hand, holding the notebook, and then the pencil in his
08:46other hand. Let's just go ahead and remove those right now. The other thing
08:51that he also has, maybe not while including turtle food, is that he also
08:54comes included with his ball. I mean, again, we see this a lot in the movie. The
08:58ball, which I'm really nice to see, is actually magnetic, because, I mean, like,
09:03first of all, they already give you the hand, and they give you the way they've
09:05sculpted a hand in a cup shape like this, that for, you know, on its own, you could
09:09easily just put the cup in there, and it isn't gonna be going anywhere. But it
09:12does seem, though, it does seem like it's got a magnetic, a magnetic attraction,
09:17because putting the hand in there, or putting it into the hand, it does seem
09:21that the ball stays in place. If it is the case that they did, in fact, add a
09:25magnet, I'm glad that they did. It's, again, it's those attentions to detail that
09:29you never... it never really seems missed here when it comes to Slice Stallone
09:32releases. I love the fact that, again, like, the hand does seem to have a magnet.
09:36It does also have, while we're speaking on hands, I've already taken, again, the
09:40liberty of removing one of the hands. I guess, really, the other hand would have
09:43been... well, the mirror flip to this one would have been, then, the closed fist.
09:48Rocky is, of course, as you can see, wearing fingerless gloves. Everybody was
09:52wearing fingerless gloves. Nicely painted there, as well. He does also come included
09:56with a pair of relaxed hands or gestured hands. Or, again, if somebody, you know,
10:01Rocky needs to collect money, somebody hasn't paid back yet. He also comes
10:04included with another version of the relaxed hand, and he comes also included
10:07with this hand here, which, again, would just be... not necessarily that it is the
10:11cup-holding hand, but I guess if you wanted to, yeah, you could. You want to
10:15have it on the opposite side? They included, technically, hands for both
10:19sides of his body, if you want to display it that way. Something else...
10:22something else that comes in clear with the figure, too, is his hat, his fedora. You
10:27may be looking already at the fact that the figure does have a hat on his head
10:30now. That head is already permanently molded with the hat, but they also give
10:34you, as well, a secondary hat. The hat is a fairly hard plastic, and you can see
10:40they've got a little bit of that gold detailing on the side, like you would
10:43have had in the movie. Funny, though, enough, he also comes included with a hat...
10:46a head that doesn't have the hat. Now, if you're thinking yourself, could you take
10:50the hat and put it on top of his head? You can't. You could, but you'll notice
10:54right away, first of all, it doesn't fit his hair, and then also it seems like the
10:57hat is maybe a little too small. You could say, well, if the hat had only been
11:01only really bigger, but then really, if you're putting it on this head anyways,
11:05technically, Rocky already has two head sculpts, two... two head sculpts that
11:10already have the hat on top of his head. So I don't see what reason there
11:13really would be that you would design the hat specifically so it could fit
11:17over top of a hatless head, when you really already have the heads that are
11:20doing that anyways. Well, I suppose we are holding this head. Let's get a closer
11:25look at the details, though, on Rocky. A much younger version of Sly Stallone, the
11:28Italian Stallion, presented very nicely here. All the head sculpts are exceptional.
11:33My only one thing I would say, though, is with the hair. The hair, I feel, is a little
11:38on the shinier side. I would have maybe dulled that down just a little bit so it
11:41didn't look as shiny plastic, but from a head sculpt standpoint, it is probably
11:46one of the best. Now, again, we're measuring this against the Cobra that
11:50we've already had a look at, and of course the John Rambo. All of those, from, of
11:54course, Stallone's specific movies, have all bared very strong likenesses to those
11:59specific roles. From a Rocky role, I think this is definitely one of the best, if
12:04not the best, Rocky head sculpts on the market. Of course, you've got a
12:08little bit of darker grays that they've added for the lower end of his face. Add
12:12a little bit of red there also, as well. Just like the warmer tones of his skin
12:16face, of his skin tone on his face. But the only thing, again, I would say is
12:20his hair is just a little on the shinier side. Now, he does have, again, two
12:23different head sculpts that have already the fedora. He's got this one, and he's
12:27got the head. Don't worry, I'll show you guys the differences between the two. To
12:30show this and compare it along with the fedora, they've actually made the fedora
12:33the exact same size. So it wasn't the case necessarily that they made this
12:37hat notably bigger because it was a separate standalone accessory. It seems
12:42to be the same size, if we want to make sure we've got that face in
12:45the right way. It is, again, the exact same size. So the two heads that he
12:49gets that he has fedoras with, I'm just gonna go and pick the figure up so you
12:52guys can see. The only thing that's really different between them is that
12:56the one that I'm starting with right now on the neck actually has the
13:00eyes looking forward, whereas this head sculpt does have the eyes kind of
13:04looking to the side. You can also see that when it comes to his mouth, his
13:08mouth is just a little bit open in the corner on this head sculpt, and it seems
13:13to be closed on this head sculpt here. I don't know if I would necessarily have
13:18packed the figure with seemingly almost two of the identical head sculpts. Again,
13:22I know the placement of the eyes is a little bit different on this one, but
13:26like the head sculpts are so close to one another, I think they honestly could
13:29have gotten away with just having the figure with one of these and then having
13:32the unfedored hat head as the secondary designated head sculpt. To change out the
13:38heads, by the way, I actually like this one just a little
13:41bit more. I like having just a little bit of the mouth open on the corner, and I
13:45think having the eye looking to the corners like that I think look a little
13:49bit more... not that the one looks more realistic than the other, but I think
13:53this just almost looks a little bit more like Stallone, even though both are
13:56perfect heads. This one also does have the bandages, as you can see, on it above
14:00his eyebrow, and a little bit of bruising there to the side as well, but changing
14:04out the heads is super easy. All you're really gonna have to do is just hold on
14:07to the head, and when you're pulling it off the post, it's actually pulling off
14:10from this area too. You know, again, it's one of those things that really
14:14they did think out all of the aspects of six scale figures when they released
14:18these. A lot of times the hardest problems when it comes to removing heads
14:21or swapping them out, for that matter, is that you have to contend usually with a
14:24ball joint. This is such an easier route, and I really wish that more six scale
14:28companies would do things like this. Once the head is now off, you're gonna just
14:31take the head that you want to swap it out to and just pop it in place. That's
14:35all you have to do. You don't have to fight. You don't have to worry that when
14:38you're taking off the head, you're gonna be removing the post in the process.
14:41That's happened to me. That's happened to me, where I took the head off, and
14:45then before I know it, I have the entire dumbbell ball joint removing along with
14:49the head, and now I have to fight it to get it back into the neck. This is just
14:53a so much easier outlet. Again, if you want to swap it out to this head sculpt,
14:56you can do it that way. Again, if you wanted to have it displayed with the
15:00regular non fedored head, you can also do that as well. But I think for this, what
15:05we'll do is we'll beeline it back to, of course, Rocky with the eyes kind of
15:09looking off to the side. That's my favorite of the three head sculpts. Now,
15:13okay, so let's look at the rest of his outfit here. So essentially, Rocky is
15:17wearing a leather jacket over top of his shirt. I think what they've done here, and
15:22I'm just gonna lift the shirt up, which is a lot easier to do than we did with
15:25the John Rambo, because of course he had the zipped up jacket, but underneath you
15:28can see like a full-bodied Stallone underneath. Very different from, of course,
15:33regular six-scale figures that would really kind of cut cost, honestly, when it
15:36comes to bodies that they use underneath. A lot of times they can usually use just
15:39generic bodies, but it does seem like if you were to look at this from an
15:42attention to detail, I think it very much does look like Rocky's build. Of course,
15:47if you want to have the figure displayed, you could for all intents and purposes
15:49take the jacket off. I like personally just to kind of leave the jacket on
15:52myself, but it would just be a case of obviously taking off the hands and then
15:55just removing the jacket. Now, speaking of the jacket, one of my
15:59biggest worries was the fact of were they gonna be using like a synthetic
16:03material. I was looking online, I checked around to their site, and it doesn't seem
16:08at least from what I've seen, doesn't seem to list the material that they've
16:11used for the jacket itself. I wonder if they are using like a leather material,
16:16and if that's the case, that might be one of the reasons why the figure's price
16:20point is a little higher, but it doesn't seem that, at least from what I've seen, I
16:24can't seem to see what kind of material that they've actually used. It does seem,
16:27even if it is a faux leather material, it's definitely one of the better
16:31synthetic leathers that I've seen on a figure before. This seems seamless, it's
16:36seamless interior, though, looks just as clean as it does from the outside. Rocky
16:41does have these tiny little button loops, and of course on the
16:44other side, he's got these tiny little buttons. I don't think, though, you could
16:47do up the jacket, because it doesn't look like the eyelets go all the way
16:50through, even if it does look like they do go through, but I don't think you'd be
16:53able to do up the jacket. The only problem I have, and I don't know if it's
16:58necessarily gonna be across the board with all the Rockys, I've seen a lot of
17:01images online of this figure where he's had his hands in his pockets. On this
17:05side of his jacket, he does actually have a functioning pocket, so you could
17:09take his hand, you could put it in his pocket. On this side, however, though, I
17:14noticed on mine, while it does look like you'd be able to
17:19put your finger in there, it doesn't look like they finished the
17:22pocket. Either that, or they've sewn the pocket shut, that you can't get your hand
17:26in there. So it's a little a little disappointing, because ideally I would
17:30have really liked to have been able to display Rocky with his hand in one
17:33pocket, and then just holding the notepad, or even the ball in
17:37his other hand. I just can't do it on this side, and again, I don't know if it's
17:40specifically just mine, or if it's just the run across the board that they
17:44didn't finish the pocket on one side. It is on the one side, though.
17:47Down below, of course, he's got himself the black slacks. Again, your attention to
17:51detail is the fact that they actually used real fabric for his boots, or shoes,
17:56that he uses. Again, when it comes to other sixth scale
17:59companies doing these on the market, this could have so easily been done just
18:03with plastic, but it seems to be the case. Like again, Sly Stallone, they're
18:06really going for the attention to detail, and I like that they're actually using a
18:10fabric boot. Now for the figure's articulation, I'm going to go back, of
18:14course, to the top of his head. Rocky's head is going to be surprisingly quite
18:17poseable. I guess it isn't necessarily surprising, considering there's a ball
18:20joint here, and of course there is the one inside the top of the cap there.
18:24Between those two, though, Rocky's head can look down quite low. It can look up. It
18:29can also move back and forth, and again, for all intents and purposes, you'd be
18:32able to rotate the head all the way around. We sort of have looked at the way
18:35his building body is underneath. Upper torso is going to be on a ball joint. The
18:39lower torso also seems to be on a ball joint, just at his abdomen area, and with
18:43his arms, his arms can easily come out, I would say, just a little less than 90
18:47degrees. You can, of course, move the arms forward. You can move the arms back. There
18:51is also a swivel in the bicep, a double hinge on the elbow, which is good to see,
18:56and the hands rotate all the way around. As for his legs, they split out, and they
19:00only really split so far, because I'm sure the legs would be able to move
19:03further than this, but you'll notice as you get any tighter, and as you get to
19:07about this position, the seam right here gets really tight. I wouldn't want to
19:12move it any further than that, with the risk that this potentially could split
19:15the seam. So the legs do go forward. They go back. They are, though, admittingly a
19:19little limited, just because of the tight material of the pants. Swivel at the top
19:22of the thigh, double hinge on the knee, and because, again, they're using fabric
19:26material here, you get a good range, being able to move and rock the ankle
19:30back and forth this way. You can also rock it back and forth this way, as well.
19:33Other than, really, just the one noticeable thing about the pockets
19:38not being functioning on the one side, I love the look of this Rocky. I really,
19:42really do. I think that, first of all, Sly Stallone and the talented team behind
19:45the scenes at Caustic Plastic have done a fantastic job on this release. Now,
19:49again, this one does have, of course, the diorama, so this one's going to be
19:52taking up a little bit more space on your shelf, but welcoming the additional
19:56space that's going to now be required in order to display this guy. Having
19:59Butt-Kiss, of course, is a nice included accessory. Having the fact that, first
20:02of all, Cuff and Link are going along for this release, as well. I think I probably
20:07would have to go in there, Rocky, and clean up the actual dish here. The only
20:11thing, again, like, it's a small thing. It's a very, very small thing. I would have
20:14loved if this figure could have come included with, like, a tiny little
20:17container of turtle food. Other than that, though, there's nothing at all I would
20:21have really changed this figure. The fact that he, first of all, does come also
20:24included with three different head sculpts of three different likenesses,
20:28although, again, like with this one, it's so close, really, to the one I am going to
20:32end up displaying with the figure that I honestly feel like they probably didn't
20:35even need to spend the time, the plastic or the materials, to produce a third
20:39head sculpt when, realistically, the head sculpts are so close to one another. I'm
20:43not faulting it at all because, at the end of the day, you're getting, again, one
20:47of the best head sculpts that we've gotten for a Rocky figure. It just so
20:50happens, again, it's coming to us from the folks over at Sly Stallone Shop, and if
20:53anybody knows anything about Sly, it's the company, of course, behind the scenes
20:56with Sylvester Stallone, of course, helming everything that's going on there.
21:00Of course, I had to look online just out of curiosity to see if Stallone's
21:04turtles were, in fact, still alive. From what I've at least been able to find, the
21:08turtles are living their best lives ever. They're, granted, well into their late
21:1140s by now, but the fact that these things have still been around since 1976,
21:15I think, is a testament to how well Stallone was caring for them. I mean,
21:19right now, they're living in aquariums. Back then, in the 70s, they were inside of a
21:23turtle bowl. I mean, they would be far too big now to sit inside that bowl. I
21:26think, honestly, though, even displaying the figure with a turtle bowl out in the
21:30streets, I think it'd be pretty dangerous for turtles, unless they were the ninja
21:33variety, but it's perfect for his dog, Butt-Kiss, and it's perfect, of course, for
21:37displaying Rocky with magnetized feet. It's obviously one guarantee that the
21:41figure doesn't, first of all, need to have a cradle display base. With magnets
21:45built into a diorama base like this, there's the certainty that Rocky's
21:50never gonna take a tumble. The character is displayed right now with the ball in
21:53his one hand and his hand in his pocket in the other. The thing, unfortunately,
21:56about it, though, is that only one of the pockets, at least on mine, is functioning.
22:00I don't know if maybe there was something that was missed on this one,
22:03but either the pocket just never was finished on one side of his jacket, or it
22:07was sewn shut accidentally. So, if I do want to have Rocky's hand at least in
22:11the pocket of this jacket, I'll only be able to do it on the one side you're
22:14seeing right now. The figure does have some decent levels of accessories. It does
22:19come, of course, included with his notebook, his pencil, the ball, of course, as
22:22already mentioned, the turtle bowl, butt kiss, and, of course, the diorama. Not to
22:26mention, as well, the figure does come included with quite a lot of
22:28interchangeable hands and three alternate head sculpts. He has the one,
22:32of course, that we're looking at right now. He has one that's very, very, in fact,
22:36similar to this one, other than just having the eyes looking forward and his
22:38mouth being closed, and he has also a non-fedora head. Of the ones, at least,
22:43that we've gotten, I like kind of with the eyes looking slightly off to the
22:46side. I honestly don't think that they really needed to include two heads that
22:50were so similar to one another, but, again, I'm all open and welcoming to whenever a
22:54company can throw in extra things, and three heads certainly is a lot better
22:58than two. From a tailorship of the way they've handled the outfit, he's got, of
23:02course, the leather jacket. Now, again, like I'm looking online to see if this is
23:05a real leather. It's got that softness that goes along with using a real
23:09leather material. It doesn't have, like, an artificial... if you've ever had a
23:13six-scale figure that's using synthetic leather, you can spot it right
23:18away, and over time, that's the kind of material that would start to
23:21degrade, start to flake. This does seem like it's either leather, or they're
23:25using a really good artificial replacement to that. Of course, the
23:29seaming on the inside of the jacket... yeah, no loose threads. Everything
23:32looks really clean and finished. The pants are a little on the
23:36tighter side, so it's gonna at least limit some of the poseability in his legs,
23:39but you're not really gonna be giving the splits to Stallone anyways. All in
23:43all, though, from head to toe, even though we have already looked at Cobra, and
23:46prior to that, we also looked at John Rambo from First Blood, I would certainly
23:50say of the three that we've looked at from the Sly Stallone shop, this one is
23:54my favorite. Not only bearing a fantastic likeness to Sly Stallone in the earlier
23:59years, in the late 70s, but also one of the best Rocky figures on the market
24:02right now. Now, again, this one is slated, and in fact, it is shipping, as we speak,
24:06right now in August, and it's going for $380. Big thank you, once again, though, to
24:11not only, again, the artistic, talented team, the Caustic Plastic, of course, and
24:15also, as well, the folks over at Sly Stallone shop that did make this review
24:20possible. Is this a figure you guys could see yourselves picking up? Let me know
