Maybe, sometime in 2023 when i move house

The 1/6th plan is to keep the Marvel together, the DC together, the Star Wars together, the Horror together,
and the 'others' together. By 'others' i mean Dirty Harry, Leon: The Professional, Tyler Durden, Villa Sister Flower (soldier) to name a few, not that i have many 'others' or Star Wars 1/6th

Space must be tight. Harry is a 1/6th scale figure

I once mixed 1/6 with 1/4 and thought it looked good..
Then i grew to dislike the idea. I understand where you are coming from.

I do not mind if somone displays 1x 1/3 with 1x 1/4 with 1x 1/6 for example and all the characters have something in common, Street Fighter for example.

If there are 10+ 1/4 with 5x 1/6 pieces it bothers me

LOADING: Image(s)

John James Rambo 1/6 scale figure by Sly Stallone Shop

The figure arrived today
For whatever reason, i have been looking forward to getting this figure in probably more so than any other figure i received during 2022
The slow shipping method caused the figure to arrive in 2023 even although the figure shipped at the beginning of December 2022

I took these photo's tonight. In the future the plan is to shoot some outside daylight pic's.
When looking at the pic's above, you might want to listen to: https://youtu.be/jKEtyt0_TZE

First impressions, the figure does not disappoint. I'd say the portrait has been painted to the same level as a Hot Toys portrait.
The green jacket, red t-shirt, blue Demin jeans all look great. The arm-dog-tags are made of metal.
John's sleeping bag looks suitable weathered.
The only weapon John ships with is his Rambo knife.
8 hands in total are included, which allows for various possibilities.

The base, i like the base. The base has weight to it, and the tarmac road finish and metal drain lid work well.

The box looks great. It is by no means Hot Toys level. It reminds me more of a type of quality a Sideshow Collectibles 1/6th figure ships in, all be it wider.

All in all i am a very happy collector. I will be placing a pre_order for the Sly Stallone Shop next offering, which is Cobra


Credits:
Supervision and Direction by: Sylvester Stallone
Executive Producer and direction: Nick Cordasco from The Sly Stallone Shop
Artist Direction and Production Management: Fabio Varesi
3d Head sculpt: Inigo Gil
3d accessories design: Sean Dabbs
Master Paint: Dario Barbera
Box Artwork: John Rivoli



If i wanted to be hyper picky and mention some negatives they might include:

Elbows appear to be single jointed. Which means the pose holding the sleeping bag (pictured below) is not possible.

John's ankles do not feel super tight. Given the figure is quite weighty, i thought they would have include tighter ankle joints.
Posing John without the base support is probably not a good idea.

John's brown leather boots. On the plus side, they feature real laces. Boot left and right boots look identical, and lack a left and right look to them,
making them look neither left or right fit. I am probably sounding too picky here.
