HCG 1/6 ROCKY IN SWEATS STATUE

I just saw this new Rocky statue on HCG site, looks really good, Anyone getting it? I bought the Clubber Lang statue a while back and know one had any interest in it. This ones from the first film, which is my favorite Rocky movie, so am going to get this one.

I like it alot.

Its a real shame they didn't go 1/4 with it to compliment the upcoming 1/4 boxing Rocky. A silly mistake personally

I'm with you on 1/4, I have the 20 inch Rocky statue, so 1/4 Sweats displayed next to that statue would've been awesome. I use to get really pissed about things like this, but now I just look at it like I should just be happy that someone decided to make anything Rocky. I mentioned to HCG and Maga some suggestions, but like Sonny said from the film Bronx Tale, NOBODY CARES! So I just except what ever gets made, and call it a day.

for such a climactic scene in the film the face looks pretty lifeless, like he got to the top and the steps and was about fell into a trance.

I agree. For the scene that this statue represents,It needs the Stallone orgasm/constipated face.

Yeah, that's my major problem with it. Head doesn't match the pose. At all.

He doesn't look triumphant, he looks sleepy.

The last three posters have valid points. I have a question. Why does a company like HCG put something like this into production when it's not right? The face needs a better expression. Don't these statues and collectibles go throw an extensive development process before the final version is put into production? I just thought the development process would be like a new prototype car that goes throw years of development before the best version is released to the public. It just seems like this statue and others are just rushed, and the quality suffers in the end.
