And why is Apollo shorter than Rocky? He should be taller.

I wouldn't judge heights by that pic alone... I bet Rock, Club and Creed are the same height, which is also not quite right...

Looks good can't wait to get drago and creed

According to IMDB both Sylvester Stallone and Mr. T are the SAME height 5'10'' but judging from the close-ups Clubber is several inches taller than Rocky. They probably used lifts or a foot stand to simulate his height onscreen. Carl Weathers is 6'1" and Dolph Lundgren is 6'4". I have both Rocky and Clubber and Clubber is SHORTER than Rocky. Looks like they used the same body for Clubber and Apollo.

I've met Stallone face to face and he ain't 5' 10"...

he might be when he wears his high heels.

Yea, Drago looks a good half inch too large. Maybe trim down that long looking neck. That body is huge. HT needs to bronze color it and give us Conan.

Now that is some great thinking

Even though the articulation is kinda **** on these, if you have a Conan he needs to be on a body like this!

Is there anyway to dye the rubber to a desired skin tone... like maybe soaking it in something?

 

[Minimodel]

Maybe Hot Toys are planning a "Mike Tysons Punch Out!" line.Drago could be "Super Macho Man"to Rockys "Little Mac".Maybe we'll see a "King Hippo" figure later which could be used for "Rocky Balboa"

Well at least in this picture, Drago doesn't look freakishly big, he looks to be about proportionally tall to Creed.

I think the Uncle Sam hat is fooling you. Take it away and he's the same height as Clubber which is inaccurate plus the giraffe neck is still too long on Drago.

Well actually I was eyeballing if you drew a straight line from Creed's nose accross thie image, where would it line up on Drago's body, which, to me at least, in this image looks to be about a 1/4 inch or so higher than it seemed in the other picture.

Great figures! I want to get all of them and Rocky Balboa too. Four more figures to add to my 1/6 scale Hot Toys "Want List"!

 

[schuey]

the only complaint i have with the drago model is his arms are not as flexable as clubber/creed,i guess this this is due to his arm muscles being a lot thicker so you are limited to very few differeant poses
