Stallone line - First Blood Rambo released

[sparkstron73]

They are using retouch/manipulated photos for the promo shoots. of the Cobra figure..look at the arm holding the gun, the clearly "natural hair type" in one of the photos and would hate to think they are using real photos of Stallone using filters to mate it to the figure head, I mean...look how bad is the Rambo head from "first batch/review examples",...do not even match the promo pictures. Pretty sure we will have the same result here with Cobretti.

This was my thinking aswell.
Definitely some tinkering going on with those images.

At this point I don't want an unboxing video. I want to see the figure. This did a terrible job of doing that. I hate the hype, but get why they go this route. Both of these figures aren't terrible, but not worth the price for me. If it was priced closer to Threezeros I would have jumped on both. I don't want to support this due to Nick. It makes me feel dirty. Sylvester doesn't seem too interested in any of this as long as he gets paid. Could be wrong, but that's the feeling I get.

Sly is a living legend but boy his unboxing videos are some of the worst Ive seen.

I mean it isn’t like he’s a YouTuber or reviewer. I’m sure he’s just being talked into it to promote the figures.

I haven’t ever watched Cobra so I have no desire for the figure.

"Okay, Nick. We shot the doll video, now can I get back to writing Rambo 6?"

"Not until you take me to Chuck E. Cheese like you promised!"

*Nick proceeds to post images from the ultra-exclusive VIP pizza party to his Instagram stories*

Couldn't they have shot the Cobra unboxing video in a more attractive setting? Looks like they shot it
in the kitchen after Sly had breakfast. Damn.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Sly's a very busy man.

It's also an additional $30 USD over the First Blood fig... for 2nd place?

The additional $30 USD is for the "odd generic muscle" in the right forearm.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Stallone: Accuracy? Let me tell you about accuracy. See this cut-joint? I actually have that, right here, genetic thing. Amazing details. Wow.

 

[Van_Damme]

I see it now: the OGMS accounts for the $30, you're right! My fault entirely for overlooking the Odd Genetic Muscle Surcharge™ - I feel like an *****.

 

[PopGimmicks]

This is definitely the best figure I've ever seen of a random guy with a slight resemblance to Stallone dressed as Marion Cobretti. 30$ more than FB figure? Why not 100$ more? Cmon Nick, that collar worths it!

 

[shells075]

I wonder how Dean Knight & Justin are gonna rate this one
Im thinking it must be a 10/10
Although I would be tempted to knock a point off, just for the hideous necklace.

 

[abake]

I actually find the video sort of endearing.
Of course it's a "bad" unboxing video, but that's not what this is about, is it? This is Stallone having fun looking at a toy of himself, and as such, it works. I suppose the amateur-ness of it is the whole point, but it could use a bit more production values in editing and lighting, if not to make the figure look good, at least to make Stallone look better.

 

[Collector57]

PLEASE lose the pearls... That is not what Cobra's chain looked like. I like the figure but the pearls have GOT to go.

 

[HMC117]

I hope Threezero releases a Cobra figure now

 

[Wor-Gar]

InArt Rambo... all weapons exclusive "All In"...

... with Bat signal.

 

[Stryker2011]

Ehh… Cobra was a crap movie anyway — so this turd matches that one.

So true. As were most of Stallone's stinkers in the 80's and 90's.

Stallone's no thespian. First Blood was cut down to 92 minutes due to his dialogue. The car was the star in Cobra.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Boxing in the ring, training, running through a dank forest or jungle, through the mud and slop -- that's Stallone.

I wonder who has more stinkers: Stallone or Arnold? I know its subjective. But if one is being reasonably honest...

Stop, or My Mom Will Shoot.
