GEAUX SAINTS!
Well, I enjoy the Jakks-Pacific Rocky figure line. I don't look at it as seriously as I with my collecting of the Sideshow and Hot Toys lines. I really enjoyed the fact that JP has produced Rocky figures from all 6 movies, and has shown Rocky in his different outfits he wore through the series of movies. It's great to see figures of his supporting cast, and the boxers he fought against. I have most of the first two series from Rocky and Rocky II, but I also hope to eventually get them all. I recall as a kid growing up in the 80s that the company ERTL, mostly known for their die-cast "Hot Wheels" style cars, made a Rocky III figure. It really sucked. So, it's good to see a nice set of movie figures come out now. I really like them, and hope to have them all someday. I've always been a BIG fan of Stallone's Rocky and Rambo characters and movies.
I don't compare them to the incredible Rocky 12" figures that Hot Toys are making now. I love what they are doing. Other than the neck on Drago that is just TOO long! He didn't have a long "ostrich" neck like that! I hope to eventually get them all. But at at least about $100 each on my tight budget it'll take me a while!
