No ****! Not to mention maulfans shots, they're amazing!
Thanks guys, it is a fantastic figure. Update, I'm goint to be getting a replacement pin for my Rambo hand, probably take a week or two to get it, but saves me shipping him back or having to buy another. In the mean time, I'll probably do a few other images that don't who his broken wrist, and once it's all fixed I'll really get to work. Here's an image that's part of a photoshop project I'm going to do.
Incase any of you wonder, that's the R3 body, I undid the stitching on the tank top shoulders and slit it off him, easy enough to fix later if I want it back on, but for me, Rambo 2 and 3 are defined visually by shirtless, scarred Rambo running around with sick weapons taking everyone out, so that's how my HT figures will look. I only included the Buddha necklace in this image because I based it off a promo from the film, otherwise it's inaccurrate to have it on him without his tank in the film because he gave it to the Afghan boy just before ripping his tank off to treat his wound.

Yup, I imagine they gave him the tank for variety in the line, but tankless with his bow in hand is the way to go for me. Once I get my replacement parts and have him all together and take my pictures, I'll take a new photo of my Rambo display with him added in.
You just recieved the figure,and i dont want to be rude or anything,but are the Tank for sale?I need 1 for a custom i will make,searching for a tank,wihtout any luck so far.
It's not rude but I'm not looking to part with the tank I may want it on some day, just not right now, and there were only a few threads in the shoulders so I can stitch that back later sorry. Try eBay, I saw some of the clothes for sale the other night.
As for my display, here's what it's been and once I work Rambo 3 into the mix, I'll have the 3 figures side by side and the bust next to them.
Smart purchase, I really love it. The paint to highlight his eyelids is a little thick, but overally it's an amazing piece, the beard stuble and everything is just nicely done.

Sheesh Maulfan you should really be working for Hot Toys, creating ads and promotional materials with your talent! I could never get tired of Rocky and Rambo stuff, simply awesome!
Thanks. I think they take a similar approach to photos as Sideshow, display the figure clearly, not be creative, though creative images on packaging wouldn't be bad. However, for example, they only had creative images of wave 1 of Aliens Marines and I passed on Hicks at retail price because the pics were poor and what little you could see of the portrait, it looked nothing like the character and I didn't know about the alternate heads at the time, so I passed at the price he was, and later had to go on the hunt for him like many others, so better to clearly show what the customer is getting and maybe add some creative shots.

Hey, if I had nothing for Stallone collectibles and came across your pics I would then own one soon after! Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words!
I agree,Maulfans pics is unique,very nice and the details of the figures shows crystal clear,he must have a very good cam though.

Oh ya, definetly!
Well, I have to wait for my replacement part on the hand, but now that I have 98% of the figure, I'm having a hard time waiting to do pics, so as I think of things I can do, I'm going to, and how could I not do this classic.

I made a nice score on eBay last night, it's not exactly the same, but very close to the grenade launcher and machine gun from the end batter in Rambo 3, will go nice with the figure for sure.

There's also this one I found, it's a bit less accurrate, but it's decent enough I think. 14 available so a good alternative, or you can hold out and hope to find the first I posted.

The replacement pin for my Rambo hand is due in this week, so hopefully I'll have it by the weekend or early next week and really be able to do some photos. I also managed to get his arrows into the bow like the film, so my shots will be accurrate.
