Rambo Premium format!

[galactiboy]

Have to agree... dirtied up he looks 100% better.

 

[LOTRFan]

It still is far from one of the better PFs, but that makes this piece infinately better!

Nice work.

RAMBO is here! I dirtied mine up some aswell, he is just TOO clean out of the box. Looks great! Now I can have a much anticipated Sly VS Arnie PF Ultimate Showdown!!!

OMG! BTW can't wait for The Expendables...

I'll give you a war you won't believe!!!

 

[ozzfan84]

I will pick this up if they make it GC eligible.

Great pics Darth Con

 

[brucecamblzchin]

cool pics man! lol at Sly freakin' out next to Old Indy casually with his hand on his hip!

 

[brucecamblzchin]

He really looks better in person, there are some things which I would change with him if I could sure, but this is a Rambo PF - COME ON! Would love to see a First Blood one too.

A John McLane PF would complete the awesome 80's action hero circle.

Can you imagine a Dirty Harry PF? OMG and a Lee Marvin and Charles Bronson one too? AUGH! Manlyness overload.

Hi guys i desided to sent mine for a repaint,,,is to clean for my taste...i think with the right paint application it will look great...i agree about john mclane...although maybe i would prefer to see it done by hot toys instead by sideshow...

Dirty Harry or any Clint from the spaghetti westerns would be pretty awesome.

Sorry guys...I dont think any amount of "dirt" will make this piece cool. Just my opinion...

I am with you on this, what's amazing is that every single collector that purchased it doesn't come off as thrilled to have it and the pathetic excuses to make it better are comical, put dirt on it, repaint it, don't display it with the left side showing, It well look better if you place it on the bottom shelf of your display cabient. For $300 why would you want to go throw all of this

 

[MaulFan]

I have been very expressive of being happy with the PF.

I don't mean to be negative on it, am a huge Rambo and Rocky collector and would like to get this, but all the lack of enthusisam by people who alrealy have it, is a real turn off, am probably going to wait for a price drop. The problem I have is that when I spend $300 on a collectible, I really want to be excited to add that particular piece to my collection. This is the first time that am not feeling it. The only reason for me to get this is the opportunities to acquire Rambo collectibles are far and few between these days. If I pass there really isn't much coming up down the road.

Well you deffinitely have to be behind it. The Rambo 3 bust from Edinho Maga's only like $400 and could end up being the only life size Rambo made available on a fairly mass produced level, but I don't like it so I haven't bought it just because it could be the only one. You have to collect what you like, I'm happy with the PF and glad they made it, but I know a lot of folks don't feel the same. I still hope to see more Rambo from Sideshow.

It will definitely happen!With Rambo 2 with the Machine Gun i hope to see 2 other nice presentations of Rambo without the Gun,Rambo 3 with the Bow or a nice pose with the Knife,and i think a dirty Poncho with a cool pose with the knife would be great for First Blood.

Good advice. I know this is a Rambo thread but what's the story with Rocky. I know HC is doing a Rocky IV statue, but well Hot Toys or Sideshow ever do Rocky again

I would love to see a Rambo III stick fighter statue and the pose should be when you think Rambo is going to finish the guy off and he just looks at him with that crazy stare.

Sideshow commented about that saying they'd likely focus more on Rambo. I think Rocky's one of those beloved characters that resonates with people but isn't a big merchandising character. It sucks but it's the impression I get. I think Hot Toys was done with Rocky years ago with the first 4, i think they just did the yellow Rambo 3 to highlight Yulli's sculpt work, but at this point, maybe some sort of DX Rocky because they like the character and want to do one with their new talents, but I don't see many figures coming. Even Rambo, I think HT's done, I'm hoping to just get a Rambo 4 from them, anything after that would be awesome but I can be content with Rambo 4 at a minimum.

I jus't dont see a Rambo 4 coming at all in any form....I bet they stick to the originals and expand on what they have already done. An updated Rambo 2 version seems more likely
