Re: Premium Format Rocketeer

I know nothing about the Rocketeer and i don't think i've seen the movie but this PF looks like one i have to get

The Rocketeer is a fun movie to watch, IMO. I love the 30's & 40's styled pulp heroes like The Shadow, The Phantom, Doc Savage & The Lone Ranger.

Oh...and let's not forget Indiana Jones!

Loved the movie.

But I'm not diggin' the pose so far.

Rocketeer is a character that was born for Premium Format treatment. The brassy metal against the clean leather could be represented well with different materials. I will be watching this one closely.

Yep, its a movie that you have to understand where its coming from... if taken to seriously its terrible, but if you put the lens of the serial genre then its a lot of fun. And the design is great, the film did a great job of getting the look right.

Re: Premium Format Rocketeer

Commando Cody was a dweeb, Jeff King (Tristram Coffin) was the first and best Rocket man!

I’m a little disappointed in the pose as well, it looks the same as many other Rocketeer figures like the old Screamn’ vinyl kit. They should do the pose from the top of the Griffith observatory.

So Disney, are we going to get a decent Rocketeer DVD anytime soon?

Re: Premium Format Rocketeer

I'll wait until I see protype pics of the Rocketeer PF before I say anything regarding the pose.

I'm just stoked that we're finally getting a PF!

I wasn't planning on hanging out in this section of the board much but this perked my interests big time. I love the Rocketeer and this will kick ass. Hopefully we get a Jennifer Connolly.

Hopefully we get a Jennifer Connolly.

I think she was the 1:1 Paul Bettany exclusive.

I don't get it.

I don't get it.

Shes married to him.

But its all good, he's a cool actor. Gangster No.1 was awesome.

not to mention he's the voice of jarvis in iron man.

That's what I'd like to see also, a PF of Jennifer would be SWEET!

MAKE IT HAPPEN SS!!

Oh, duh. The blonde hair actor. I forgot his name.

I am ashamed for even asking. I should have figured that was what you meant.

Lucky SOB.

Re: Premium Format Rocketeer

One of my favorite Disney movies and comic characters will FINALLY get a PF!!

Thank you, SSC!!

I hope we get to see a Jennifer Connelly as Jenny Blake PF

​

I remember my dad taking me to see that. After the movie he said wow what a movie. Not to bad looking an actress either. I agreed and he made me blush by holding his hands up to make boobie symbols.
