Hot Toys 12" Apollo Creed & Ivan Drago

[dekadentdave]

The King of Sting. The Master of Disaster. The Count of Monte Fisto. The one, the only, Apollo Creed!

I like everything Hot Toys makes but coming from a HUGE Rocky fan, they couldn't get one of the head sculpts right for either of the 4 fighters they produced. Well maybe Clubber.

I would still buy them though, the accessories alone are worth the $$$

What do you think was wrong with Rocky. The proto pics sucked but the actually product is ****ing amazing, I don't think you could get better.

Rocky is spot on!!

i am in love with my clubber lang,i think these figures are great,so i have just brought apollo creed of ebay,if anyone wants i will post some pics when he turns up

 

[Seth Gecko]

Clubber does look nice and the robes and everything else is great.(love the blackness of his getup)I think owning all 4 of these now is something i will do(sooner or later)Cause at the price they are at now ya almost have to.

A bit lame seeing distorted pics through plastic windows, the guy couldn't at least slip the tray out of the box and remove the top cover?

Anyway better than nothing I guess but I would really like to see pics of the figure out of the box...

 

[Seth Gecko]

Yeah MIB people

But you can see they look great just like rocky turned out.(and besides the out of box ones are coming real soon so at least we know the likeness is there):chew)

in short... no.

I hear ya and I appreciate you taking the time to show us these, wasn't trying to be a smart ass it's just that I've been waiting so long to see this guy

but thanks to you we can see CREED came out MUCH better than the prod pics... something SSC may want to make note of....

i don't know what it is bud but i'm just terrible at taking pics of figs (in box or out of box). i just can't seem to do it. nature, people, other stuff is just fine. but figs... need to see some tutorials i think. and buy a new camera. and not get my damn fingers in the reflection of every shot. and hold the damn camera steady.

but guys, i know you've all been waiting for good pics. and if i saw mine, i'd be annoyed too. understandable. and i'm not an MIBer (i believe figs like these should be played with) - i just need them fresh in case i need to sell them to pay tuition fees etc. as i mentionned, i've had problems with MIB buyers before.

rest assured though, they turned out much much better than i thought they would. i hope you can at least make that out from my quick pics. especially creed. he just looks so damn good. he's like 80-90% carl weathers and that's better than most figs. and the paint job on him is just great. the head looks very human. drago's sculpt is 70-75% lundgren. and i think that's mainly slight problems with paint. he looks less human but is still a great fig.

if you haven't ordered them because you were worried about the sculpts, GET ORDERING! and pjam, i am a sarcastic biyachio. don't take any notice.

 

[Seth Gecko]

Dude they look fine!(especially for in box)I was expecting worse.
ty!

 

[pjam]

These Creeds and Drago's will sell like hotcakes IMO for the kitbashers too...

Dillon, I mean now that IS Dillon. Drago may need a repaint but you'll have all kinds of Dolph stuff too.
