Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

I don't even care if it's DX, all I care is that they make a Rambo 4 figure, I want that film represented by Hot Toys in my collection, I don't care about DX stuff, as long as we get a figure from that movie I'll be happy, after that it's all just extra goodness.

I agree. My first pick would be a Rambo 4 but to be honest I wouldn't mind an updated Rambo II. I think a Rambo with PERS would kick ass too.

I agree with it all, a Rambo 2 that better blends with the line would be great, the original First Blood isn't quite there either but much better than Rambo 2.

I'm just big on symetry with stuff like this, when there was no Rambo 4, I was just hoping they'd make all 3 movies and thankfully they did, now I really want the 4th at a minimum, they can do even more, I just want Rambo 4 right now, and PERS would be cool too, but that's one of those nice extras, whatever it takes to get an HT Rambo 4, I want it done, "look man, whatever gets him in the ring." (I know, wrong Sly movie)

Yo Maulfan and Terminator! I can see you really want an HT Rambo 4, but since it may not happen I think you should consider picking up the Rambo 4 sculpture made by Maga. I have it and love it, and it looks great next to an HT Rambo collection.

Already got it in anticipation that HT might not get to that film, as it's about the same size as HT figures. Sculpturally, I love it, paint wise I was let down so it's off with a good friend of mine to be repainted, and once it's done I'll have the most kickass RAMBO statue possible.

The only problem I had with the paint was the lack of blood on it.

I just disliked the quality of paint on the arms and all, compared to what I'm used to, and I have a friend that can paint really well and when he's done, it'll really make the original look poor.

The worst thing to me was the quality of the blood on the production piece, it has hard edges and just almost looks cartoony, it's really weird, the shirt, pants and base are painted so well, the machette is awesome, but the arms and face are really lackluster in comparison.

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

I wouldn`t mind a Upgraded Rambo 2 at all,the body is pure garbage,but the sculpt is better than First Blood(First Release) imo.

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

The Rambo line is an extension outside my usual collecting habits..

As it would be for me, I mainly collect sci-fi and fantasy figures, however I would like a Stallone figure in my collection and a DX Rambo would be ideal because of its militaryness. Not being a huge Rambo fanatic I'd probably take whichever one most of you guys are looking for.

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

I bought Colonel Trautman off of JediMike71 the other day (Thanks Mike). I thought I'd take a couple of photo's of it and a couple of Rambo as well.

Great pics buddy. I have them to. You know the first thing that came to my mind when I took a look at your pics? Those where the good old days when HT prices weren't to pricey. Troutman was only $65 and I think the M65 was only $85 or was it $99. I wounder what HT would charge for Trautman and M65 today????????????????????????????

I completely agree with you. I have both these figures and they cost me $170 delivered. If released today, they would probably $170 each. 1/6 is too expensive nowadays. People look at me crazy when I tell them my plastic dolls are about $150 each

 

[MaulFan]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Exactly as is, I don't think M65 would be much more than it was before, Trautman, yeah he'd be about $40 more, for what little difference there'd be, not worth $40, but I would love to see a new Trautman with today's headsculpt quality, and in his Rambo 2 gear, always liked that look best.

 

[Rock83]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Yeah i would love another Trautman figure,but we both know that will never happen as it won`t sell any good.

Still,for such an old figure the Trautman looks real good,i will never sell mine.It is as important to me as M65 Rambo.

 

[MaulFan]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Of course, at this point, we'll be lucky to get RAMBO, let alone Trautman.

 

[Rock83]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Yeah but we might as well get Rambo 2,HT must have gotten some feedback on their fragile Muscle Body so i think we might get both RAMBO and Rambo 2.

 

[MaulFan]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Well, I haven't found my Rambo 2 to be any more fragile than Rambo 3, but, a more human skin tone and a much better headsculpt would be great, the face is ok, but more so I find the hair off, Sideshow/HCG's bust really captures the Rambo 2 hair perfectly, would love a figure to look like that. RAMBO first, Rambo 2 second, and could always upgrade First Blood as well, and give him the poncho to make him unique.

 

[Rock83]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

Yep RAMBO first...

I think Poncho Rambo would be a good excuse for a Re-Release,dirty and bloody arm and forehead,add the Spruce Twig as well.Oh boy i would love something like that

 

[snoop101]

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

If hot toys makes any rambo figures, I hope their from First blood. That was the best Rambo IMO. And it seems with each figure, Hot toys quality keeps getting better and better.

With the quality of dirtying on the new John Connor figure, a poncho FB figure could really rock, I wouldn't want heavy blood, but a splattering of dirty tones like Connor could really help sell the portrait, and now that they seem to be getting into texture on bodies and such, you could put put him on a body like Wolverine and have full articulation rather than be limited by a muscle body just for the exposed arms, or do mucle arms only like Marcus Wright. All in all, HT's in a better place today for doing Rambo figures than they were for the previous entries, even Rambo 3, as awesome as is, might have a solid plastic, fully posable body like Wolverine and be a better figure for it.

Re: Official Hot Toys Rambo Line Thread

You would think HT got into Rambo far too early,based on what they are capable of today.

Rambo and First Blood Poncho would sell good too,SO GIVE THEM TO ME HT
