MMS138 – The Expendables: 1/6th scale Barney Ross Collectible Figure

[Rock83]

Knife was attached to his back though:



And no,still not the same knife as Dolph and Statham had in the movie

 

[Platty]

Did he have that knife on his back at the tanker scene in the beginning?

Maybe because he wears the costume at the beginning and end of the film, they have got a bit confused somewhere and forgot to add the knife. He is also missing his F2000 rifle from the beginning of the film. It's kind of a mix of both scenes I think?

 

[Rock83]

Yes in the first scene,you actually get to see it up close when The Expendables is on the second floor right before Gunner's

Spoiler

"Warning Shot"

,the camera is filming over Sly's right shoulder.

Poor quality but it's the best i could find:

 

[Platty]

Ah right. Complete dropped ball on Hot Toy's part then.

 

[DinoLast]

Well if enough people mention the knife, maybe they will include it like they did with the black shirt for the T-800, and the Falcon for the Falconer Pred. Be proactive people and ask nicely

 

[Rock83]

I posted 2 pics on HT Facebook page so hopefully they will make it happen.

Don't see his good luck ring anywhere in the handsculpts, which I find more important than the knife. The likeness is amazing. But I am just waiting for the Jet Li figure, hopefully with the white suit.

Lol I saw that after I had just posted the same thing.
Oh well, the more the merrier

I finally went to see The Expendables last night (Pirana 3 was on too late).
I came out of cinema with a big dumb smile on my face. I loved this film. I felt it needed more character like the A-Team had but itvwas still great.

I now want this mighty cool looking figure. I do have other figures to get first but hopefully by the time he is released I may be in a position to buy him.

I saw that,we need to show our interest in the Knife so it doesn't hurt one bit.

 

[collectamania]

The more i look at this figure, the more i want it

 

[MaulFan]

You know, I wonder if it was a factor in adding the beret's, but I get a bit of a Demolition Man vibe from some of these shots, like the upper left one here.

And this one from Tommy's blog.

 

[Kelrek]

Definitely picking this up, there's no doubt it's Stallone.

 

[Platty]

I'm pretty sure the berets would have been included anyway, they are an essential part of the geared up look.

I posted that tommy shot a few pages back, is there no more on his blog?

 

[The Mike]

On a side note a 1/6 Fully decked out Demolition Man Stallone is one of my grails. I love that movie. Huge guilty pleasure.

 

[Darkseed]

Amazing. It doesn't get any better. I wish all sculpts could be so amazing but take what we can get.

Not for the figures, I meant for the movie itself, I wonder if in deciding on the costumes, as a nod to Demoliton Man, maybe Stallone chose the berets for that purpose.

In a way, the whole tactical gear costume has a Demoliton Man look to it.

Be well.

 

[MaulFan]

There aren't many from HT these days that aren't. I love how this turned out, but I'm every bit as satisfied with T-800, T-1000, Marcus Wright, DX Joker.

 

[Rock83]

Actually never thought of the costume being similar to Expendables but yeah you're right.We have a Wesley Snipes "Blade" by HT so let's start making our own Spartan and Simon shall we?

I agree I've definitely been seeing Demolition Man in this costume. F___in' A!

BURRRRR "A-dev you are fined one credit for a violation of the verbal morality statute"

By the way Maulfan thanks for the pm reply. I didn't reply back because I'm at maximum storage capacity and as I don't actually like deleting my pms I'm very choosy about which ones I do delete to make space - aaannd at the moment I don't have the time or patience to go through them. I'm always at 99%.
