Sly>Arnie. no comparison to me.
What could, and hopefully some day, might still be.
I'm with you I this. I thought the film was terrible, nothing special or memorable about the character Barney Ross, and am a huge Stallone fan.
It's amazing that Hot Toys is making figs for a crap film like the Expendables, but classics like Rocky I and Rocky II have know figs

You got a better shot in Hot Toys doing a Stallone, Stop! or my Mom will shoot! figure
then Rambo IV ever happening.

Rocky 1 and 2 should have figures but the Expendables was awesome!

It's about sales. Some franchises are hugely popular but not big for merchandising. I think Rocky's a character a lot of people really like, but when it comes to spending $150+ on little collectibles, it's not that appealing to enough people. There are those who'd happily buy it, myself included, but I think we're too small a number to justify it. Rambo has a better chance because there's military gear and collecting seems to favor characters that fire weapons and kick ass and have crazy gear to do it. Which also favors Expendables.
Expendables has the fact that it's an action film with cool military gear used, plus stars that many really like and would like collectibles of, and it's a new movie so they'll be able to sell to people who get caught up in new movie hype. If they tried to do this line a year from now, it'd probably do about half as well as it will, but right now, all things going for it, it should do pretty well.

It's too bad really... I just like collecting figures from good movies.

Just finished watching the film! After seeing these specs it really made me wanna see what all the hype was about.
I personally loved the movie. The action parts were great & fight choreography was superb!
However as many have stated, the Ross character was 'meh' to me & didnt present anything great.
Figures still awesome, Im just not down about having a fig representing such a character.

The character aside, it is a great representation of Stallone. Ross as a character was meh, I enjoyed Statham's (Christmas) character better. I'll pick up Ross and Christmas but pass on Li's character (Yang). A total waste of a character IMO.

Small nit-pick, but I think the figure needs a more defined torso and abdomen. Looks real stocky.

True. Stallone was way more ripped in the film. Alas, doesn't bother me terribly, as I will mostly display him in commando gear.
