I know that human likeness can never be spot on in 7inch scale
I disagree, the sculpt might look rough in texture or simple paint, but I've seen some great likenesses come out of NECA.

They're great for inexpensive 6" figures that will allow Rocky fans to collect an extensive line of figures covering the series of films. I look to NECA as a cheap way to really depict a film with many figures, it's too expensive to do with something like Hot Toys, plus they don't always make everything. NECA gave me the most broad lineup of T2 representation and Rocky will be the same.
You getting these Roy?
I have to ask you and other collectors a question, why does a 7 inch figure that cost $15.00 have to have a head sculpt that's spot on, or looks like it was sculpted by michelangelo? The majority of the expensive figures aren't spot on, so does that mean you can't purchase them to?
I think i'll get the BD versions of both Rocky and Apollo. 1976 Rocky owns all imo.
Actually both clean portraits look close to nothing in terms of likeness. On the other hand both BD sculpts look great.

Im gonna get all the BD versions only of this line, cause I know that human likeness can never be spot on in 7inch scale
I think it's the eye paint, the eyes are totally obscured on the two BD ones so you're pretty much just seeing sculpt, the clean ones have the eyes and they're lacking on both.
Yep. You'd think it would be the other way round, really!
Jesus, that variant Rocky head looks awful. I know there is a lot of knit picking and _____ing on these forums and a bunch of silly little-girl whining but any big Rocky/Stallone fan can not be anywhere near content with that sculpt. It looks horrible. Jaaks was better than that. And I'm a big fan of Neca; got a ton of their stuff. The battle damaged heads look awesome but WTF happened on that variant sculpt. F••• me- it looks NOTHING like Rocky.
