NECA: Rambo

[Rambler]

I don't mind the sleepy eyes. When I think of Rambo, that's the image I have of him, not this monstrosity.

What the hell kind of pose is this?

Nice Retardo figure.

That's the NECA doesn't give a **** about the rambo line, so let's display him with the Jay Leno head sculpt holding the m60 in one hand and the rocket launcher on the other hand pose

Absolutely. Stupid pose.

I agree with you, just look at how much better the Planet of the Apes line looks, they did an above average job on Rocky, but Rambo, for what ever reason is terrible, you have to wonder why such a piss poor effort was put into Rambo by Neca? If they don't won't to do it right why make a third Rambo figure? This head sculpt chin looks like Jay Leno lol Thanks for bringing it up. I guess it all comes down to you get what you pay for, this is a cheap six inch plastic figure that sells at toysrus and Walmart for around $15, so maybe the expectations are way to high by me and others here.

It's clear NECA put very little effort into the Rambo line, they're distracted with Aliens and Apes. This 2nd Leno version will probably hang around the pegs for awhile while the bow one will sell out rather quickly.

Yeah, Neca just doesn't care enough about the Rambo line, and it has to do with the sculptors working on the line. The guy in charge of the Apes line is a HUGE fan of the movies, and he said in a youtube interview that it was a dream line for him to work on, so clearly, the best sculptors are not Rambo fans or are not working on this particular line for some other reason. It's too bad that twice, the Rambo figures with the M60 machine gun have such poor quality. This is the kind of mistake that can kill a line of figures, and they have only themselves to blame for that if it happens, not the fans.

I'm happy with the sculpt and the accessories, but do you guys notice something wrong? Something only a big Rambo fan might notice immediately?

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

The good news...he comes with the M60 and the sculpt looks good!!

 

[MaulFan]

Lots of hands, cool he has the M60 but I was hoping for the bow since I have an M60. Knife should have black on the blade though, small detail to miss and I'm sure they just slapped silver on.

Oh I know I know.....It has a Predator Background!!

Yep, silver knife. However, you can tell that it's a new sculpt, so at least they aren't reusing the knife from the first film/figure. I still don't get how they missed such an obvious detail? I expect that from Mattel, not NECA.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Even my old Coleco Rambo figure got the color of the knife right

 

[Rocky1976]

Does anyone notice that the head sculpt in the package looks fantastic, the previous posts made him look like Jay Leno, I guess they might have tweaked the sculpt and what we saw was not the final version.

Randy said on Twitter that the SDCC figure was a production figure.

It's just lighting.

This is a heavy flash shot and it still looks good.

Package shot just looks a little better.

I think he was talking about this head sculpt..aka, Jay Leno

 

[MaulFan]

Well, that one may still look bad in the package. Time will tell, the original First Blood figure looked bad at the Cons and looks great in person so who knows. I'm getting this first on anyway so win for me.

 

[T-800]

The m-60 has a strap. Which it never did in the movie. Also no ammo belt. An no angry face!!!

 

[MaulFan]

I'll probably just use the M-60 from the N2 figure, no strap and has an ammo belt. I wonder why the strap is there, if NECA will use the M60 for other figures or something, because if it's just for Rambo, then they should go for accuracy, he took it from a helicopter mount.

Yeah he looks amazing here;
