Awww. Lots of awesomeness in this thread. My Rambo 3 won't arrive until end of August according to my local retailer.

I hope the "2nd batch" proves to be free from these worries.

Just a quick update on my Rambo guys....got a different pose on him now as i didnt partiularly like the one foot up on a rock look anymore (posing is all about trial and error, you'll go through hundreds of different poses until you settle on one). So know i've got him standing naturally and have added some arroes to the quiver and also added the knife to his side. However, i have made a few custom changes. I went out yesterday and purchased some sticky velcro tape from a local DIY store, this tape is great and enables me to attach his knife to his side without me having to fiddle about with removing his belt...i can just detach it by pulling it off an then re-apply it by pressing it against his side for easy access. I have also custom spray painted the strap of his AK47 gun as i didnt like the cream colour strap - just didnt go with his overall look and now i am contemplating doing the same for his cream bag....

Thanks for the kind words regarding my T2 display in regards to the Rambo display you have to really bear in mind that it is from Rambo III so therefore there wouldnt be much jungle around as it was based on the surroundings of the middle east (Afganistan). I am basing the theme of my display on very sandy rocks etc... keeping it subtle i think just like the T2 display

Something like this.

Something like this.

Thats right, something deserty...although i feel like Enterbay have matched just the right texture, colour and atmosphere with their rocky base and i'll more than likely just match up some sandy materials based on their colour - then of course add some large rocks maybe to bring out the depth of the display...

 

[King Darkness]

Something like this.

Sand is all wrong.

Scorpion is not screen accurate.

Total fail.

Prolly not even a real grenade.

Hi guys, you may have seen my Enterbay T2 T-800 display recently, im a massive fan of Enterbays work since the release of the T-800 and can honesty say that they surpass anything from HotToys IMO. I recieved my Rambo III figure yesterday (from BreakersRevenge - Thanks dude!) Well what can i say? The figure is definatey up there in terms of the likeness (just like the T-800) great work Enterbay. If i could critisize the eyes slightly as a simple tweek of the size of the eyes would have made it for me 100% accurate but its something i can live with. In regards to everyones issues with the joints, yes there will be slight gaps depending on how the arms are posed and yes it can be fustrating at times but i knew full well this wouldnt be a problem for me as these joints could be easily covered with various equipment, the bandana and certain posed positions could quite easily cover them up. It is after all an articulated figure so there was no getting away from the visible joints. Now the only negative thing i could find with this figure, and some of you may have noticed, is the lack of articulation in the lower half of the figure. By this i mean there is no articulation at the hip (a big no no for me that) and also the articulation for the feet are almost non existent making it extremely difficult to have the figure stand freely. As mentioned at the beginning, those of you who have read my previous threads regarding my T-800 display will know that i have some great ideas for a Rambo III display and have already started my initial posing ideas. Here's a little sneak peep at my first early pose....I literally busted this pose out at the first attempt and was thinking along the lines of the original Captain America Premium Format statue where the captain has his leg raised and foot on a soldiers helmet...whereas in Rambos case, a large rock taken from the original base...enjoy! Sorry for the poor lighting....

huge fan of the display! wow! where did you get the bike from?

huge fan of the display! wow! where did you get the bike from?

Thanks my friend....well the motorcycle was found on eBay and as far as i know is the only 1/4 scale model out there and is a radio control version. Its actually been customised black to coincide with the black Fatboy used in the film - it even has fully working sounds and lights too! You may often see it crop up from time to time, infact i think someone was selling the exact same custom bike and terminator figure on eBay recently as 2 separate listings. The bike went for something like $56 if i remember correctly. I paid a little more than that. I believe one other guy on here also has the T-800 on the same bike as i have got in my display. His name is Dessidy or something like that?

 

[RobertoBagg10]

here a pic next to Arnie Maulfan it does look good in hand

This is the guy...you see, he has the same motorcycle as i have infact i know of 3 other collectors that have the same back and they have done the same thing as Desisandy and pose Arnie next to the bike instead of on the bike like i have. This is because due to the restricted articulation of the figure it is extremely difficult to position him on the bike and for him to look half decent....i seriously had to spend hours trying to bend the legs correct and also safely withour tearing the leather trousers....but once you have struck that pose you'll know it was well worth it!

Here are a few PICS. of my Rambo.I had retouched(not that it needed it) his head by adding more stubble and growth.Also mottled the skin as well as added slight shadow under the eyes.I dyed the bag to OD green but i need to add more green to the belt cause in the film the belt was darker then the bag.Added lighter shade of green on the charm to make it look like the jadeite used in the film but i think i need to add more coats.I included a PIC.(the last one)of my figure fresh out of the box for comparison.I'm far from done(at 25%) but will be soon and will keep posting updated as i complete them.I was very hestitant about buying this figure for many reasons but after seing Maulfans PICS. i had to get it and don't regret it!For me,it's bye-bye 1/6 and hello 1/4 world!I can't wait to get the Batman and Joker figure as well as the T-800!THANX Maulfan!!
